My neighbors were up celebrating paddy's day loudly until 3am. I hope they enjoyed my courtesy press of their doorbell when I went out for my run at 6am.

Going to be in your town for the first time in a couple weeks. Any suggestions for cool shit to do from locals? Any good cigar lounges?

Does anyone know how to look at their previous bills and payments from national grid for gas? There doesn’t seem to be a website anymore :/

What’s up with the out of service elevator at the Bowdoin Blue Line Station? It’s been over a year that’s it’s been nonfunctional.

the ICA is a pretty cool art museum (and relatively cheap) if you’re into that, you can get there via the silver line if you take public transit. there’s also the MFA but that’s a bit more expensive, boston public garden usually has some people playing music and is a nice walk, and harvard square has a bunch of cool shops (you can go there via the red line).

I’ve repeatedly tried to engage the mbta about bowdoins lack of access. I was finally able to get an answer that the escalator is not being repaired, but eventually replaced. Really bugs me as I’m on the blue line and disabled and I could get to Whole Foods and target there. Never mind the department of mental health is inaccessible which is just shameful.
