I was gonna say “I’ll take one of my ole place in Eastie” then I remembered I can draw and paint and should just make one my damn self.
Yours made me nostalgic as hell and now I’m inspired. If you do paint more, I’d love to see them, OP

Reply to comment by Maxpowr9 in The MBTA and Green Line are mentioned: We Finally Know Why It Costs So Damn Much to Build New Subways in America by timboot
It's crazy how much progress it felt like we made in such a short time when the orange line was shut down. All of a sudden bus lanes felt like they just appeared overnight. Like once we actually had some pressure to just build things even if they're imperfect we started making things so much better and then we just stopped

I've been curious to try them myself, but for the reasons you posted, I couldn't be bothered.
I would like to see more Chick-Fil-A's around here that aren't a PITA to get to or have to drive more than 15 -20 minutes away.

You’re not going to find a faster way through public transportation. My ex lives near Amherst and when my car was broken, I took a Greyhound bus Boston to Springfield then used the PVTA buses the rest of the way. It was my only option but just the PVTA from Springfield to Granby(right before Amherst) took over an hour when it’s a 15-20minute drive in a car. The Greyhound does stop in Framingham to pick up people so you could get on there and then the PVTA to Amherst but it’s going to be at least 2 1/2 hours for you. My sympathies to you, I did that trek every week for a while and because I live in Shirley I had to take the commuter rail (1hr) to North Station first, walk to South Station, 2hrs on the Greyhound, and then another hour on the PVTA. I’d usually have to wait an hour or more between the train/bus schedules too. I finally ended just renting a car one time and my god it was glorious! I wouldn’t recommend it but if you take the public transit route, I used this app Moovit - whatever city you’re in it will give you every option and combination of public transit available for your route. Wicked helpful when trying to align multiple bus/train schedules and navigate the inevitable detours

I lived on Princeton St. in East Boston for a bit in my early 20’s. 2 minute walk to Kelley Square Pub. Very close Walk to Rino’s too. Loved that neighborhood.

Reply to comment by dapperdave in Calling all New England Sports fans: consider giving rugby a chance! by xcaughta
There is risk of brain injury from repeated hits in rugby, the risk is not zero and part of that is sub-concussive impact. There are lawsuits taking place currently in England around the issue, but those players played in an era where there were no substitutes (even for injuries, if you lost a player you played a man down), and players just clattered into each other at a sprint in lots of parts of the game. Even once substitutes became a part of the sport, the was (and of course still is, in some places) a culture of playing through "head knocks" and other injuries.
That said, rugby really has changed a lot recently, in order to try and preserve the sport while protecting players. Revisions are still ongoing, and only time will tell how effective they are. But it's a very different attitude toward head contact and brain injury than football has, where they still routinely use their helmets to make hits and have just removed the most flagrantly unsafe things (helmet to helmet targeting).

Reply to comment by Yakb0 in Has anyone bought a car from an out of state dealer and registered it in MA? How long did it take to get your new plates? by Yakb0
From that, if you are not exchanging a vehicle for another of the same type:
"There is no grace period if you do not currently have a registered vehicle or trailer. The RMV does not issue temporary registration plates."

The city doesn't add restaurants.
There will be a new location opening on Boylston Street in Back Bay.
