Juggs of Nugs

I don't think those arguments were explained well. I can tell your mad but why did you made all those assumptions? Seems to me like your point of view can't stand up on its own without attacking ppl who agree with you.

Judge Amps in Somerville is my neighbor. https://www.judgeamps.com/

The premise of this confuses me. Color me naive but I thought dispensaries were just for picking up your marijuana and leaving. Seems like an odd thing to have topless. It isnt like a strip club experience.

Middlesex Fells aren't far from Oak Grove.

Middlesex Fells is accessible from the Malden stop on the Orange Line to the 132 bus (or biking that last bit instead of the bus).

Blue Hills will take a bit of time but is accessible from the Mattapan stop on the Red Line to the 716 bus. One of my favorite places in the area to hike though.

Hi! It's interesting because at my university it actually is considered 3 separate degrees rather than a triple-major (I just learned this myself so I was pretty surprised...unless I was misinformed).

Can you work in consulting without a business/accounting/finance degree? Im not as familiar with the corporate sector so this is brand new info for me.

Not too worried about food. My partner's a great cook and we can squeeze a penny when it comes to groceries. We also both despise driving so ditching the car and using public transport will be an easy transition!

I just don't see any evidence that that is the case: I see that a landlord accepting a rent payment after the lease ends converts the tenancy to at-will (and then protection from no-fault eviction applies), but nothing that suggests that that happens automatically and without the consent of the landlord.

Mr. Music in Allston would be a good place to start.

Yeah I have a more general issue with opinion pieces often leaning towards platforming the already powerful and self-interested, but being against them being topical is a little silly. If there is a crash on the T or a policy proposal in the works, expect an influx of related content in the editorial page.

Just go back to the pine tree on a blue shield, for crying out loud. That was way better than what we have now.

I'm not sure what you're writing. Tenant protections require that tenants be protected.

My guess is that it would be the case that landlords would not be forced to sign a new lease. But without the option to legally evict under the new tenant protections, the tenancy would become a tenancy-at-will and continue that way until a fault is found. Still, I'm not a lawyer or a professional housing advocate, and I haven't read the proposal yet. That's just a guess based on what the law is now.

bit of a hike off the commuter rail, but there's a few decent hikes around Concord. Walden Pond area probably most notable among them

I haven't checked the dates, but it seems like I got my fed and state refund in 3 weeks. Maybe 4 weeks.

They ran out of gas / got a flat, or had some other sort of mechanical failure.

Typically they get it figured out within a day or it's towed as an abandoned vehicle.

The orange sticker is a warning that the vehicle is about to get towed for being abandoned.

found one in Brighton https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/18-Beechcroft-St-APT-3-Brighton-MA-02135/2104136831_zpid/

but yeah they're rare.

Oh that's a bummer. I just applied last week online.

Ok, let's consolidate in the other thread - I'm having trouble keeping track of both. To be clear, I would love if tenants couldn't be forced out when their leases ended!

Interesting, but I don't think failure to renew is a no-fault eviction: as I linked above, no notice to quit is needed in the case of failure to renew.

Online passport renewal is not available right now. They estimate it will be available again next month.

> a Notice to Quit is not required when a lease ends.

Good point. A Notice to Quit can be given, but it doesn't need to be when a lease ends.

> your landlord can immediately file papers in court and begin an eviction case

But beginning an eviction case is not the same as an eviction that can actually legally displace someone. An eviction is still required to legally displace a tenant if the lease is over, so the legal protections from no fault evictions (that would be part of a sound rent stabilization plan) would apply.

As much as it sucks thats basically it.

Average rent is more like $2K for a studio or 1br, not $3K. You're probably just looking at big apartment complexes. A majority of Boston's housing stock is made up of 3 unit buildings called triple deckers, which you'll find on Facebook, Craigslist etc. Anything new will ask for luxury prices.

That being said, passion exploitation and trust fund kids are a very real thing in the museum / nonprofit space. A lot of places pay poverty wages on the belief that you're doing what you love and should be "honored" to work for such a prestigious institution. And for every struggling college grad who asks for a survivable wage, there's three more trust fund kids who will gladly take that minimum wage entry level job and ask mommy and daddy for help with rent.
