Like a date night in Southie with the Irish curse, we're just getting 4 inches. So no.

Brattle Street in Cambridge is great to walk along with a ton of historic houses. Easily accessible by the T and you can walk to the wonderful Mount Auburn Cemetery, explore that and then get the bus back to Harvard.

I saw it in person for the first time on Friday and still thought it looked like hands holding a dong. It's unfortunate from most angles.

Reply to comment by chad_stanley_again in a big thanks to the Silver Line driver who just rolled past us at Terminal B at Logan. She looked at us and kept going. it's not looking good for catching our train from South Station 😠 by Due-Designer4078
I see you haven't taken the silver line lately lol. Last time I took it (last month) I waited 25 minutes.

Given how slow the T is lately the train could have been 20 feet away and the man had 40 seconds to escape it lol

It'll be interesting to see how the data differs from Transit Matters. The T is not unfamiliar with using practices that make its numbers look better, like not counting cancelled buses and trains towards reliability statistics.

For some jobs it is worth hiring contractors as needed. These in house carpenters, plumbers and electricians etc all need benefits, substantial public sector pensions etc. Sure the T is paying more to hire these people but they're not on the hook for the retirement costs as well.

Lord Hobo sucks ass. I'm with you on Harpoon being at the bottom though, they are trash beers. Having remnant lower than San Adams has to be trolling.
