I was gonna say the same thing. The guy won something like 66-34 in 2020, and even won Concord. Sununu will be governor as long as he keeps running.

And the fucking calls with surveys. Buh Gawd.

"The one that takes you to the cog railway"

Yes, that is correct.

Jokes aside, there was a link elsewhere that described the process. There's a convention, and there are elected delegates sent there (can't recall if it's elected by the legislature or the people), to review the constitution and amend it, but any amendments have to pass with a 3/5 majority and then get ratified by popular vote.

And honestly, the last time we amended our constitution (with at least one free stater amendment, to boot...) both amendments were ratified with an 80%+ popular vote.

You do know how the constitution is changed in our state, right?

Oh no, the article is complete trash, as is most things put out by that website.

But the real story isn't far off of the article, unfortunately.

For 100% remote, unless your payroll handles it, you will have MA taxes taken out. You do not, however, owe any MA taxes. So if you're 100% remote and have any MA taxes taken out you'll get all of those back when you file.

We did. However, MA finally ended their "emergency" back in September, so since September, it's back to the way it was before the pandemic - You only have to pay taxes on the percentage of income earned while physically in MA. So for a fully remote worker, they don't have to pay MA taxes. If you're partially remote (I worked for a company in MA and went in once a week, aka 20% of the time) you only pay on that percentage. So I'd only owe income taxes on 20% of my income in MA between September 2021 to when I left that job a few months ago.

Someone shared her response here. It's basically "whoops someone screwed up on this deal so we used $155k of public funds to take what was previously an unrestricted boat launch, put it under control of the HOA, and put a gate and key on it"

Yeah, nothing wrong with that at all.

Her community used $155k of public funds to take what was previously an open boat launch and put it under control of an HOA, with a gate and key that's apparently publicly accessible somehow.

That's according to her statement on the thing. It just so happens that a real estate agent made a "mistake" in a listing that just so happened to give her HOA control over this boat launch, and it was "recommended" to put it behind a gate.

Nothing to apologize for though, not like the HOA severely limited public access to a lake, using public funds to do it.

Someone posted her statement explaining the situation, and the claim is basically true. They spent $155k to buy up some land that they then put under lock and key, to keep out an invasive species of plant that obviously respects lock and key.

Technically the public can still get to it if they go get the key (possibly from the local police station), but if you don't already have a key like the people in the HOA do.... It's a hassle.

Right? Her statement is like "yeah, we kind of made an oopsie and now it's basically our private boat launch but it's technically public, because if you want to go to a ton of extra hassle that didn't exist before our kind-of-oopsie, you can still get to it. We're not going back to it just being open though, still gated like the community I live in"
