I’ve heard from folks that work there that Gannett brought in someone to teach reporters how to “interview” pets. I’m not fucking kidding.

That property has such a history. From an airport to a country club to a small-batch brewery/taproom for a top craft brewer.

One of the main determinants for heading into the office anymore is: Will it cost me more to take the T or to heat my house for the day? I have electric heat, so it’s pretty much always the latter.

Several co-morbidities here and I’m basically where you are. Fully vaxxed and boosted, I do the flu shot every year, I’ll still mask up on public transit, and my work shuttle (MASCO) requires you to mask up even if you don’t want to. Only so much you can do. Of course I don’t want anything to happen, but the Big Guy might have different plans. I’ll hang out at the bar, enjoy a couple cold ones and BS, and hope for the best.

How dare you have a reasoned and nuanced take.

Curious to see how much in-state travel there is, especially with schedules timed for Boston commutes and not Providence ones.

It was used during the Anthony Bourdain documentary to voice some of his written words, and it was pretty controversial.

I didn’t know this existed. We used to have a local version of it, but the telephone company ended that years ago.

I’m not saying safe injection sites shouldn’t be a thing, but I don’t see how they reduce usage? Can you explain it to me like I’m a 5-year-old?

Agree on the treatment issue but now that we can’t ship the druggies out to an island in the middle of the harbor, it’s apparently impossible to find a solution.

I agree, but Cumby’s didn’t even have that. At least they have something now, works in a pinch.

Right on Comm Ave where Cain’s is, holy shit that place would be packed.

It opened just as the shelter opened on Southampton. That area was headed in a far different direction before that happened.

There are Wawas without gas stations, and a lot of their gas stations/C-stores aren’t a huge footprint.

Sheetz’s menu is far more extensive. Wawa’s hoagie options are damn good. They each excel in their own areas. I could do without Sheetz adding a -z instead of an S on every pluralization, but that’s a losing battle to fight.

Are you thinking of the one in Weymouth?

There is so little late-night food here. A few non-gas Wawas in Allston/Brighton or on Huntington Ave would get steady foot traffic. The issue here is acquiring the real estate. Wawa owns a lot of its lots. Does Wawa want to spend a premium entering a new market to get sales that probably won’t be like those in Philly?

Also Cumby’s is so much better than what we used to have around here. 10-12 years ago there was nothing in that vein near Boston. I want Wawa/Sheetz too, but you gotta have some perspective.
