Reply to comment by joearchang in curtain problem by timeforclowns
I'm honestly not sure what you're referring to. In the state of Massachusetts, there are very specific laws outlining security deposits and none of them specify that a security deposit be held in an account that cannot be accessed by the landlord. Similarly, I do not know what piece of legislature you feel mandates court approval to deduct anything from the security deposit.

Are the days you have to go in consecutive? I was in a similar situation a few years ago and I would stay at an AirBNB one or two nights a week. Not sure what the prices or availability are like these days but I would look into it.

I mean, I wasn’t one of the people downvoting you but go off. Eat inferior chicken and give your money to the weird Jesus Super Bowl ad guy. Have fun.

Baker funneled money to the RNC, fought women's reproductive rights and trans* rights, sent our resources to Trump's border wall, and did his best to kick kids off healthcare. Democrats are the decent fiscally conservative, socially liberal party.

Donors look for investments that will give them a return.

... unless regular people get involved and dilute that faction. Which is not at all hard to do.

Definitely no lobster, meat, vegetables, or ice cream. Only suffering for the irresponsible poors!

Don't just look at presidential general election results. Plymouth County is probably the reddest county. It went for Diehl vs Warren. There are some extreme Republicans in our state legislature, and in town government (like the January 6 insurrectionist elected to the Braintree school board. To quote The Wolf, let's not star sucking each other's dicks just yet. There's plenty to fix in MA too.

Last weekend I visited roadrunner for that retro fest thingy based solely on seeing it here. It sucked... but still thank you for doing this.

Cane’s is just so much better. The sauce alone puts them in a league above Chik Fil A. (That and they aren’t owned by deranged religious fascists)

Reply to Suffolk or Umass Boston? by [deleted]
I went to Suffolk and lived in the dorms for 2 of my 4 undergrad years, as well as later getting an MPA at the Business School. I also worked there as a Staff member for years.
I would say it really depends on your program and trajectory. If you are trying to figure out what you want to do, go to UMASS Boston for cost and exploration and transfer elsewhere.
I was interested in a career in politics/public service and Suffolk's location, program, and connections locally were amazing. The campus is also in the heart of the city and at this point they have 4 or 5 beautiful dorms on Beacon Hill, Tremont St, City Hall Plaza, and the Theatre District.
Being within a 5-15 minute walk from City Hall, The State House, and multiple major state and federal agencies was a godsend for internships and jobs.
It was also expensive. Again there are some great programs at Suffolk - but your program needs to be a strength of the school to be worth it.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Literally none of the counties run red. Not a single one since 1988.

Reply to 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
I bought in CT and they sent me home same day with some dealer owned plates with the promise I would mail them back when I got mine in the mail. Seemed legit and the salesman said they do that a lot for MA customers. Plates took 1 week to get.

Reply to comment by Mumbles76 in Any good recommendations for therapists in the greater Boston area. 30 years old and found out i have ADHD by Dajoey120
Not OP but I was diagnosed as an adult but had all the signs since forever but got by in school but really struggled. I soooo wish I’d had the chance to properly learn clearly and not constantly feel like I’m behind while also not being a fucking wreck of lingering anxiety and social isolation.
Even if you decide to just start with therapy please consider it.
