But then they moved goal posts.

“It was rushed through approval!”

Also commercial spaces.

Nobody lives in the financial district.

Boston also has lots of commercial space and other stuff like museums, hospitals, and other non-residential facilities.

Does anyone know the flight path?

When I used to live in Allston, I’d hear them fly overhead, about 15-20 seconds before they’d show up on TV.

New Benz ain’t gonna pay for itself.

Any hardware store will have pitting mix.

TJ Maxx/Marshall/Home Goods has pots.

Also recommend Mahoney’s.

This is BB-2, a pre-dreadnought battleship built in the late 1800s.

“Big Mamie” is BB-59, a South Dakota-class battleship that served in World War 2, and has the distinction of firing the first and last 16” shells of the war.

Grasshopper is great vegetarian/vegan option

More housing

So many cows in places like Weston, Wellesley, Newton, and Lexington…

Cool, and when every single suburb thinks they are special and that housing should be built somewhere else nothing gets built.

Your suburb isn’t special. It doesn’t exist in a vacuum.

I’m glad the state is finally telling these suburbs to shape up.

Lab spaces… you think the people who work in these offices and labs only live in Boston proper?

Funny, suburbanites have no problem outsourcing their office, labs, hospitals, museums, sports stadia, etc. to the city.

“Stop looking for government to solve your issues.”

Funny, the only ones looking for government to solve their issues are the NIMBY’s trying to use municipal governments to block housing from being built in their suburbs.

I’m in favor of less government involvement in housing. Which means letting the market having a much bigger say in what gets built where, much to the chagrin of whining, entitled NIMBYs like yourself.

And that’s literally what this push from the state is doing. It’s the state government telling local municipalities to get fucked, and to allow higher density housing yo be built.

And no, I’m not going to work a second job because people like you feel entitled to use the government to shield you from having to live close to other people.

You own your property, not your neighbor’s, not the neighborhood.

That’s a nice fantasy that you made up in your head.

I don’t know if you’ve been paying attention, but there is a shortage of housing throughout much of the state.

But I get it, you got yours, screw everybody else, right?

No it isn’t. I welcome Boston proper to build lots more housing. I greatly encourage it.

But Boston proper is not solely responsible for supplying housing for the state.

Suburbs don’t exist in a vacuum. They are part of the greater community, and would be nothing without their proximity to Boston. They can chip in too. And entitled NIMBYs can get bent and cry a River.

If you don’t want to ever have to live near other people, move out to the sticks, not inside of 495.

Cool story.

Want to show me where in your dead it shows that your neighborhood is frozen in time from the moment of your purchase, and that you are entitled to your neighbor’s property?

It doesn’t? Didn’t think so.

NIMBYs can get bent.

The state is growing, there’s incredible demand for housing, and it isn’t Boston proper’s sole responsibility to house everyone.

If you don’t want to have to live near anybody, move to the Quabbin.

You also realize that at one point your suburb was all forest and corn fields. How come it was okay destroying that “neighborhood character” to make room for your cul-de-sac?

Why is it Boston proper’s job to house everybody?

Why do surubanites feel so entitled to live right next to a major city, but to not have to live near other people?

Your suburb doesn’t exist in a vacuum.

Is that dime store Old Man in the Mountain in that image?

Cry, NIMBYs

They should

Does this even exist?

Almost anyone I know who can drive manual had their parent teach them when they were first learning to drive.

I personally learned myself in college at a summer job on a small utility vehicle we had to use.

I’d love for New England plus New York and PA to break off and form it’s own country.

How well has going high gone?

If conservatives are going to constantly try to appeal to emotion, it’s time to play to their level.

A microscopic embryo is not special, it is not a person, it is a parasitic clump of cells.

It is a parasitic relationship.

The host body gains nothing from it.

Meanwhile, something like your gut flora is a symbiotic relationship.

You realize that recreational weed is legal in Massachusetts and you can buy it in a weed store, right?
