Yeah I've been really disappointed in all of the Globe's BPS articles like this that seem to make mountains out of molehills, like the piece a few days ago trying to make a 2% budgeting error a giant conspiracy. With the way the comment section for the Globe's been going it's like they're literally just feeding the trolls at this point.

yeah I'm not surprised honestly. all the more reason I was surprised about this warning in the mail, weird amt of effort for something so mundane compared to other stuff going on in traffic that gets ignored.

I can't imagine someone having such a shitty life that they'd prioritize turning someone in for a red light. I mean it's not like it was a hit and run or drunk driving or something. I see way worse on a daily basis.

I will say that a few weeks ago my wife got a warning in the mail from the BPD saying she turned left at a place where it is supposedly forbidden. She wasn't pulled over and neither of us see any places at the location where it says no left turn, but there isn't anything to fight because it was just a warning. Our theory was that the cop happened to be there and took her info down. It was certainly a strange thing, and the idea of a cop being too lazy to get out of his car and instead passively send in the mail is bothersome.

May be worth contacting the Rian Center to see if they have any ideas - https://www.riancenter.org/ I think the bulk of their work is around immigrants who are already here, but they might be able to refer you somewhere if they can't help you.

I see them once in awhile in my backyard in the summer

It also doesn't help that the Needham Line leaves South Station at 3:55, 4:55 and 5:55... if you have to work until 4 PM or 5 PM you're going to have to wait a long time to catch the train home, so I would assume a lot of people like myself opt just to take the orange line. Which is ridiculous because I live literally a 4 minute walk from the Bellevue stop.

Sounds like you've been listening to conservatives lying to other conservatives about what progressives are like.

We definitely had it in our house. I assume we got it on the plane back here from FL last week. Took me about 5 days to totally recover.

Yeah i like how this person calls it "under" Healey as though it isn't two separate branches of government. Literally civics 101

It's been three weeks lmao, what exactly did you want her to do, travel back in time to make sure they did what they were supposed to in the fall? Force them back into session earlier than this week, in an overreach of power?

I'm visiting Sarasota right now and went to a Red Sox bar here where there are a lot of NE snowbirds. Some lady went on a drunk unhinged rant about Mexican immigrants. I think they're recycling things over and over again.

why won't Biden do anything about EggPEC?

You're speaking hyperbolic nonsense.

newsflash, Haitians have lived in the Commonwealth for decades and are doing just fine. you're being an idiot. maybe if you'd venture out of your little harbor every once in a while you'd meet one. Their community support network is pretty vast.
