I'm guessing they had someone pull a shot with the suspected mouse droppings for one of Tatte's clownshoes flat whites, and the taste was indistinguishable from their regular espresso. Hence "possible."

I'll say it again: NO ONE wants the City of Boston to ramp up parking enforcement in all places. EVERYONE wants their personal, precious, free, subsidized street parking spots (whether at their residence or preferred destinations) to be defended tooth and claw. Everyone. Ps: Ed Flynn sucks at this.

With more venues and eased permitting in the city, seeking out talent in the spoken word and slam poetry spaces wouldn't be nearly this difficult.
Nik DeCosta-Klipa@nikdecostaklipa.bsky.social · 3d agoIn Boston, scientists are trying to use toaster-sized ultrasonic microphones to eavesdrop on rats. The goal? @evezuckoff.bsky.social reports they hope to use AI to decode what exactly rats are saying to each other and then create a "rat dictionary": www.wbur.org/news/2026/09... @wbur.org

Most of the best coffee being made in metro Boston today is inside people's homes.
WBUR@wbur.org · 4d agoBoston has 3.6 coffee shops, coffeehouses and cafes per 10,000 residents, according to data from WalletHub. While that’s not enough to land us among their top American cities for coffee lovers, it’s contributed to an uptick in Boston’s ranking.

The 100 best TV shows list makes the case for the best screenwriters having followed the money into television/long format (understandably), but hopefully reminds everyone that most of this stuff is still just as disposable as anything else born after the attention economy sandstorm.
BREAKING: Large companies are desperate to turn your unwavering interest in the Maze Runner movies into a YA-focused ad for New Balance shoes.

I threw a can of expired pineapple juice at a raccoon tonight. Missed it by a mile.
I would like to know where these theaters exist. It's quite possible that UAE and Russia are about to get a lot more world premieres.
George Pearkes@peark.es · 2w agoI'm sure there's more detail to come under the hood but TLDR $PSKY bought off California by promising to release at least 30 films per year in theaters, and without California the other holdouts didn't see a way forward.
I'm very pleased with how this thread turned out/down.
