Reply to comment by singalong37 in This photo was taken in Boston in 1975. In fact, it won the 1976 Pulitzer for photography. It shows a young woman and a little girl falling from 15 meters high. More info in original post. by ReimundLachi
Bostonian here. Yes in the 40s to late 90s the South End was mostly single room occupancy, inhabited by grizzled bachelors and lonely spinsters and widows, and a slew of drunks and druggies who spent their day trudging from scutwork job to liquor store to drunken stupor. But the neighborhood wasn’t built for them but for the upper working class of Boston. Cycles, everything cycles from new to used to used for something else. People who performatively despair of conditions should know this.

You’ve got to keep cultivating the garden even in the off season. By Lech Wales’s you mean the ‘ in solidarity’ tag line? Totally normal in left circles since long before Lech. If it were Solidarity, capital S yup a reference to a Polish activism.

In the situation you describe he’s keeping up, but at a safe distance.

It is to give the car ahead of them, and you, once you pass, and we know you’re gonna pass, all the room in the world to do whatever stupid they will do. Without involving themselves.

Freeze then thaw gives us our lovely potholes. I don’t know but logically those should be fewer in both NYC and Chicago.

Reply to I believe NH is waiting to legalize marijuana to sell it like it does with Liquor. I know other people believe this to, so I wanted to ask what others think of this? by JCquitt
It would be good for a user to be able to buy a tested and reliable product from a trusted source, like every other product on every other market.

No, you’re not that tedious. Your complaint is trivial in context is all.

For the hundredth time…. Recycling is a market. There is a market for, there are people who will buy and recycle, glass, metals and paper. Recycling of plastics is mostly a shuck. The fiction is pushed by plastics manufacturers for reasons of profit.

It is fairly clear that the government is not ‘ allowing the free flow of illegal immigrants into the country’!!!!!!

The governor of Florida was solely responsible for the Martha’s Vineyard migrant trip. The governor of Texas was blindsided and miffed about it. Gov DeSantis needed some brown skinned people to send, the immigrants in Florida tend to be from Cuba so untouchable for an ambitious trumpy . So he spent some Florida taxpayers money to poach some more appropriate nationalities from Texas. Like scorpions in a bottle those govs are.

It’s on the model of tv and electronics disposal. Not in the ordinary trash, you have to call a special number and tell them about and a date is arranged for pickup. You pay, city pays? Depends on the contract. Usually it’s an in your taxes thing.

The fact that they are in the system because they asserted asylum. If they had not it would be back on the bus Jack , and we wouldn’t be talking about them. Elementary and fundamental.
