Also, when you're in a country where your health insurance is tied to your job, people are naturally less inclined to protest when there is a risk of it affecting your job.

This speech from Mark Carney. Truly one for the history books.

Every country (especially European ones) should boycott the World Cup to protest against this disgusting warmongering fascist President.

I want Democrat presidential hopefuls committing that if Trump in any way “acquires” territory (including Greenland), then they commit to give it back as soon as they’re elected.
Make it clear that it will be pointless to attempt.

The way our President is treating our European allies is absolutely repulsive.
Threatening military attacks and engaging in economic warfare for an attempt at territorial expansion.
Anyone who supports this action is my enemy.

Time Out Market, massive Fenway food hall, will close later this month, sources say - The Boston Globe
The closure comes after a tumultuous six-plus-year stint in the city, as Boston’s largest food hall navigated both the pandemic and its aftermath.

If you saw this piece on @nbcboston.com , please know that it’s ludicrous scaremongering.
Nobody is proposing to limit the number of miles you drive in your personal vehicle.
This plays directly into the 15 minute city conspiracy and sure enough all the comments are people freaking out.

Massachusetts’ housing crisis didn’t just happen to us… we created it.
Half-century-old, exclusionary zoning policies still handcuff us today. There’s no single fix or overnight solution, but another year of delay and slow-walking reform is simply unacceptable & unsustainable.

It is entirely consistent to hate Maduro & strongly condemn the decision to remove him by force.
Trump did not seek & Congress did not grant authorization for this use of force.
Under our Constitution & laws, that makes it ILLEGAL.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.
It’s about oil and regime change.
And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.
