Wat? You don't drive on the Pike very often, do you?

Lowell's fine. More to the point, it's gentrifying. It's also on commuter rail so it offers easy (if time-limited) access to Boston.

Soft paywall. It's so annoying when people post links to walled articles without even bothering to summarize the article.
"Boston resident Martin Kelledy has filed a class-action suit in state and federal courts over his contention, which basically boils down to the claim that the Dunkin’ mobile app sometimes adds upcharges that it doesn’t explain."

I'm tired, too, but I still need to go to work.
Low effort garners low rewards.

The fake no trespassing sign has been there for 2 years. As there was a question posed about it.
I think it would be the honorable thing if, someone would remove the fake sign on public land. I will if I see it.

I've already proposed it elsewhere in the thread. I'm really not interested in just rinse and repeating the same conversation from last night.

I understand there's a news effect, where if you hear news of, say, a suicide, suicide rates go up. Same thing happens, horrifically, with school shootings.
But is it literally everything? Trains just derail now? Or have they always derailed like this and we just haven't gotten reports?

Its simply what it is now. What would you propose to remove the easement?

Latinos are mostly conservatives. Of Catholic/ Cristian faith. Also, just because a person has a Spanish name doesn't mean they aren't white.

Totally. After living out west for 14 years I got used to driving a lot farther for things than out here. I’ve kept that mindset since I’ve been back and I’ve seen so much more of New England than my first go around.

That's certainly an interesting idea, but in the US it doesn't apply.

It’s funny because the whole concept you are arguing for is simply not legal according to a big portion of the world. In Scotland, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Austria, Czech Republic and Switzerland there is legislation called “right to roam” where anyone can walk through someone else’s land so long as they don’t stay too long or mess it up. Although it is law in those countries it’s pretty much culturally a law in most of Europe going back centuries.
So from a European perspective, the entire concept of suing to disallow people to simply walk across your land is ridiculous. Same as the idea that the state would have to buy that land from you just so people can walk through it.
Tldr: the entire concept that we are even spending resources fighting things like this in court in America is almost a laughable parody of American exceptionalism

Now that the weather is starting to get a little better, I have been considering new places to go to practice my photography. Sounds like a nice place to spend an hour this weekend.
