Mayor Wu, I love that you're considering congestion pricing for Boston. If it doesn't work out as part of the climate package, I'm hoping it could have legs as parts of another policy! I love how it worked in NY and want it here!! @mayorwu.boston.gov
Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.
The vibes over on Twitter are bleak. Many people, including former Trumpers, are (finally) opening their eyes to the atrocities of ICE, and are raging at Nikita (new head of X product dept) because he accidentally revealed that the algo is basically always pushing ragebait slopaganda
More people in Boston need to understand how special of a player we've had in Jayson Tatum
@somervilleinfr1.bsky.social what's up with the train track supports at the underpass by Star market on Beacon street? Are these permanent?

Gwen Snyder is uncivil@gwensnyder.bsky.social · 12mo agoI cannot emphasize this enough: The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent. They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so. Doomers are not realists.

I really dislike "X" and want BlueSky to succeed, but honestly so much of the discussion I want still happens over there, while Bsky has itinerant waves of engagement (and maybe that's on me, I don't know). Wish it would flip.
Dear Boston, I really have missed you. Especially the rose Kennedy greenway and how friendly everyone is.
This is unconscionable and would be like mayor wu closing Mike’s and the Modern for health code violation. For shame. www.reddit.com/r/boston/s/v... @universalhub.com
