"having liability insurance" is a far cry from "you have to register your car here" though. If that were the case, why isn't everyone who lives in NH and drives to Massachusetts for work required to get Mass plates?

Please consider contacting your state representatives and urging them to ban the use of SGARs (rodenticides that cause hemorrhaging and kill other wildlife). Current bills in session:
Rep. James Hawkins: HD.577 An Act relative to pesticides

And if the Republicans hadn't blocked the other bill no strike would have been necessary.
You're acting like a strike should have been allowed to happen, which is debatable given the massive damage it would have caused to the broader economy. Hundreds of thousands of other people would have lost their jobs, is that relevant for you?

Too bad Republicans in Congress voted against the Democratic plan to give the workers what they wanted, you mean.

Maybe he's like me and has an office with a shower? I used to run from the gym to the office and just leave deodorant, soap, etc in my desk drawer

Well a traditional soft plastic gallon jug isn't super great for you, it will leech phthalates into your water. Hard sided plastic is generally fine, but if it squishes and is intended to be single use, don't drink from it!

If you can get the shoes down to 2 pairs rather than 3, I highly recommend the Aer Duffel Pack.
I've had one for years, thrown it around at the gym, used it for travel, even had a horse chew on it. It's indestructible and holds a ton of stuff.

Edit: a note that the gray color uses a less waterproof external fabric, if that's a concern. The other colors are fine.

I genuinely don't understand why this is hard. I haven't used a store bag at the grocery store in years.
I bought a bunch to start, put two in every bag I use regularly, then the rest in our car. We always have enough bags. Why does everyone else seem to have a problem with this?

That would be great, but a huge majority of voters outside 128 would like to kill the T as they think it's a waste of money. They're wrong, but that doesn't change what they want.

You just discovered the tragedy of the commons, congratulations.
Maybe we shouldn't do selfish things because "it won't matter if only one person does it."

I saw someone using an angle grinder on a bike in front of a police station. Nobody gives a shit about bike theft.

That is exactly why this rule is in place, i'm not sure what it has to do with the requirement to register the car in Massachusetts though that the RMV appears to see in this legislation
