Here's hoping that whoever @mayorwu.boston.gov taps to replace @jfh01.bsky.social continues the great work they've done in the last 4 years to make Boston's streets safer for pedestrians and cyclists. 🤞

I've got 1 spare ticket to tomorrow night's UMass Hockey game against Maine at the Mullins Center. Let me know if you want it.

Surprised to hear @stabert.bsky.social claim that the South End is "impossible to get to" from Cambridge... the 1 bus goes straight there!

Don't tell me you're a no bus person.

Just a reminder, there is NO TRIVIA at The Haven tonight due to a (sold out) whiskey tasting event.

Back as normal next Monday at 7, so see you all then!

I've got a pair of extra tickets to tonight's UMass Hockey game. Free to UMass fans who will cheer loudly.

Hit me up if you want them.

TIL (because I forgot to take them out of my backpack) that these are TSA legal.

But better not bring a full size toothpaste! I feel safer already.

Whole lot of insufferable white people showing what kind of socialism they believe in and it’s national socialism

Guys, no candidate is perfect... we should just ignore all these enormous red flags because we think he communicates effectively about economic policy.

Remember how well that worked out last time?

This. Plenty of other fish in the sea... throw this one overboard.

sorry I couldn’t find a version of this meme where both of the arms are white

You also can’t fight Nazis w/ “progressives” who have Nazi tats. If you try to do that, people will just say “why is it ok for YOUR guy to display Nazi symbols on his body then” and they will have an entirely valid point.

What the fuck are we doing here I’m so sick of guys like this

Episode 18: Pennsylvania - “Virtue, liberty and independence” | Maximum Fun Janet Varney and John Hodgman have arrived in the keystone state! First order of business: What on Earth is a keystone anyway?

Because this week's eps of their respective podcasts popped back to back in my feed, I couldn't help but think how much @stabert.bsky.social would appreciate @hodgman.bsky.social's musings on Philadelphia on this week's episode of E Pluribus Motto. maximumfun.org/episodes/e-p...

Relatedly... anybody want my second ticket/club pass for Saturday night against Bentley?

Hey, #UMass peeps! I'm looking for 3 additional tickets (and, ideally, club passes) to Friday night's game against Northeastern. Happy to trade 1 for 1 for future games, as I have two tickets but typically only use 1.

Let me know if you can help me out.

Connections knows what day it is.

Come play trivia at The Haven in JP tonight at 7PM!

Last game I watched was the Pats/Eagles Super Bowl (in which I was rooting for the Iggles in solidarity with my father and because we'd won enough, I thought).

I like the old one, personally, but also I have no skin in this game: I checked out on the NFL 7 years ago. Just can't support a sport that causes head trauma as a matter of routine to literally everybody who plays it.

FYI, @stabert.bsky.social, the "guy hiking the football" is Pat Patriot.

And the "modern, more geometric" patriot is generally known as the Flying Elvis. 😂

huh. would have lost that bet. 🤷

I'd bet good money they gave to Cuomo too.

It was at this moment he knew... these people will get me killed

Interesting experiment: Jeannie Johnston is doing happy hour #trivia at 4:30 on Fridays.

Really good option for school teachers and others who are big nerds but can't make it out to bars late at night!

Would go well with the decor in my office.

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

It started out as just the truck before expanding into brick and mortar spots.

A light blue food truck branded with the name "Cookie Monstah," motto "Fresh Batch, From Scratch," and URL thecookiemonstah.com

Mildly surprised that you weren't familiar with Cookie Monstah already, @stabert.bsky.social... Surely you've seen this truck around town in your time here? Maybe just didn't make the connection in the moment. 🤷

We need community notes here to clarify that in fact Michelle Wu ended his campaign

Sounding like some major swatting going on at UMass Boston: Several calls/reports of gunfire, students cowering in a Science Center classroom, gunshots at the campus Dunks, BC High. So far no victims, no evidence of gunfire. BC High was put in lockdown, but again, no gunfire or anything there.
