I just saw a motorcycle cop telling people parked in the bike lane on Mass Ave to move else he would ticket them ... in Cambridge 🫠

I wish the cops in Boston would do their job, like this cop in Cambridge was doing.

I’ve been fixated on sunrises recently #BostonMA #CambridgeMA #Sunrise #UniversalHub
I was excited to learn, thanks to a flyer at my door, that #DanielLander is challenging #Massachusetts State Senator #WillBrownsberger.
I was once a Brownsberger fan, but my enthusiasm waned as his progressivism did. My last straw was his refusal to support the unionization of legislature staff.
I don't know if Lander can beat him, but Brownsberger needs to feel heat from the left.

Statewide Progressive Coalition Endorses Daniel Lander’s Senate Bid | News | The Harvard Crimson

Daniel A. Lander ’14 picked up his first major endorsement in the state Senate race this week, as Mass Alliance — a coalition of labor unions and progressive advocacy groups — backed his bid to unseat incumbent William N. Brownsberger ’78.

This is your periodic reminder that the City of #Boston is pretty much always looking for new poll-workers. You can make a bit of money, get to know your neighbors (if you work the polls in your neighborhood), and help preserve democracy.
You need to be a US citizen living in Massachusetts (but not necessarily Boston).

I've been doing this for several years, so feel free to ask me any questions you have.

Boston Proved Me Wrong—This City Has Way More Than Just History

I thought Boston was all Revolutionary War sites and dusty museums. Turns out, it's also cannoli in the North End, Red Sox games at Fenway, whale …

Would I happen to know anyone in the Boston area who has a portable XRF analyzer?

I'm curious to see how it works for soil lead testing, but *also* to talk to someone about what the care and feeding of these analyzers is like in practice, and how feasible it might be to set up a program for helping people in the area test their soil, including raised beds.

(I've been thinking of buying one for this purpose, as prices are down a bit.)

StreetsblogMASS has obtained internal City of Boston polling documents that show a strong majority of city residents support the proposed Blue Hill Avenue bus transitway project, and that a plurality of residents support bike lane projects, even when it comes at the expense of car lanes and on-street parking.
