Wow it's just totally shut, guess you gotta go all the way to the Fellsway bridge
(this is why we need that bike/ped bridge between the casino and Assembly)
I wonder if it was because she was on Colbert last night

But I get the feeling people are comfortable shopping at independents so the demand for small format chains isn't as high

Sometimes you have to do a thing you don't want to do so you can save money!! (or get good at pantry management)
One of the cool things about being a non white transplant to New England is people will assume you grew up in like Lowell as long as you can do a general American accent, don't talk very much, but are extremely blunt when you do
25.07.2025 17:10 — 👍 4 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I think a lot of single people also don't want to eat leftovers and aren't great at remixing ingredients/pantry management to avoid leftovers. The latter is a separate skill that's harder to teach, the former, well, the word decadence comes to mind
