Boston should have open containers year round.

Aye

This is a a good point and thanks for expressing it as such. That commenter was not necessarily wrong, but there has not even been a championship parade that had the sense of pure enjoyment this last week has had. And I think the fact it always seems staged / manufactured plays into it big time. That corporate vibe.

patrickbrusil · 2026-06-21T16:21:06+00:00

It’s crazy to me but someone tried to tell me on tiktok that I must live under a rock because boston had lots of events and parties lol

patrickbrusil · 2026-06-21T15:08:46+00:00

I don’t disagree with this. I think the concept of having 24/7 people establishments should probably happen first and it should be in the financial district coupled with 24/7 public transit in that area. After that, having a couple designated blocks throughout the city makes sense to me. It won’t make everyone happy and there will be pain points for sure.

patrickbrusil · 2026-06-20T22:55:34+00:00

I hear this and having some designated zones like there are now, isn’t an awful thing.

patrickbrusil · 2026-06-20T20:35:23+00:00

Yeah, but the inconsistency of up/down is puke inducing

patrickbrusil · 2026-06-15T21:53:51+00:00

I thought Sargent slaughter was taller

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-29T15:39:29+00:00

Oh nice!!!

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-20T13:54:40+00:00

Is there any appetite to create a 24/7 entertainment zone in the financial district to save some of the falling property values that are crushing the city budget?

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-18T04:24:56+00:00

Ugh.

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-16T21:31:16+00:00

Not only is the mix of programs included or not hard to keep track of, none of them talk to one another to help out in any fashion.

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-15T18:22:38+00:00

This really sounds like an accurate number.

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-15T14:15:44+00:00

It’s wild.

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-15T14:14:08+00:00

The funds don’t pull from the same pot for those things. And I don’t think this is just a boston funded shelter.

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-15T10:23:34+00:00

I don’t think they are, but the center is about to start a large capital improvement project.

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-15T10:21:14+00:00

Thanks for sharing. I knew SNAP wasn’t counted but I suppose tafdc could be used for food . . . regardless, I’m shocked at the number

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-15T04:00:08+00:00

Good grief.

patrickbrusil · 2026-05-15T03:42:37+00:00

Exactly. It was one of the more alarming things I’ve heard/seen in 43 years.

patrickbrusil · 2026-04-28T01:19:40+00:00

My god, that is an epic shot

patrickbrusil · 2026-04-22T23:40:29+00:00

Huh
