Seeing past the brainless echo chamber that is Boston media, culture, & #mapoli. A nice enough backwater city with a big (poor, not cute or endearing) attitude.
Dunks coffee stinks. Sweet Caroline needs to be retired.
Boston is a nice enough place, but not the hub of the universe and the rest of the country isnt something to be looked down on. Here to bring a little humility for a town w overbearing and inflated self opinion.
Mitch McConnell remaining technically alive for an extra three weeks because of a manipulative procedural maneuver is exactly how he would have wanted to go out.
The play "Hiroshima", a tribute to the victims of the first atomic bomb, with music and singing by Yoko Ono, opened in New York City this week.
One tearful Japanese survivor of the attack, who attended the premiere, called the play, quote, "the most horrifying experience of my life."
@MikeMinogueABMD A bipartisan problem. Baker admin doubled down on this nonsense in whom they appointed to boards like the DPU & cabinet positions (EEA secretaries with names like "Climate Kate")
GOP needs to learn this lesson very quickly. They have been part of the problem. Turn the page!
@BostonGlobe Boston Globe/Godfrey Elfwick:
Filtering life (and things that affect and prey upon ALL people) through the lens of minority issues.
Glad you care, not glad that in order for you to do so it takes an obscure racialist narrative.
@ShortsleeveMA A bipartisan problem. Two Baker appointees still on the board. Truly hope youre willing to shitcan them and commit to doing something different than your old boss!
Many other examples like this across state govt... its not just Healey. I hope we are all learning a lesson here.
My grandfather was in the Skull & Bones Society at Yale, my dad’s a Mass. elected official who’s served 5 terms with no general election or primary challenge, and my mom was on the board of every private school I attended. Allow me to walk you through how democracy…
@MassGovernor@MassEEA@MassDFG@EEASecretary Sunday hunting... thank you. Actual hunters (who work M-F and thus lose half their season to this) DO want this and no GOP governor has even tried to give it to us.
Tipping the hat on this one. Unironically appreciated!
@NBC10Boston@SueOC_NBCBoston Long ago litigated, YEARS long news cycles... if youd even believe it there were even movies made, oscars won!
DISTRACTION. Next generation of politicians & media are just a shitty cover band.
Can we focus on crimes in the here and now rather than the old ghosts of the 1950s?
@johnfgately When people were more in tune with practical realities than ideological abstractions
Bay staters will only acknowledge the mere existence of things like storm response, energy prices, Mass and Cass, structural brokeness is if it has a national angle convenient to the narrative
@DMAnews1@johnfgately fyi a biden appointed judge (and baker when she was on SJC). Think that 106k resitution ever arrives in the mail? Ha!
What a JOKE
@WDWakeman@johnfgately@MASSterList What a joke. Everything through the filter of who is in the "in group" and "out group" as though they uniquely have the truth or have anything interesting to say.
Legacy media, increasingly just a fiercely guarded conversation amongst themselves with no actual consumers.
