Crazy to me that if you search “patriots” on this app you get discourse about whether right wing radicals can call themselves that, or updates about the the football team for the most left leaning region of the country (I’m only ever looking for one of those things)
#Boston firefighters got person from Track 1 to platform, alert and conscious. Boston EMS transported person to local hospital with a leg injury. Both #MBTA commuter rail and #Amtrak now running, but with significant delays (up to 2 hours in Amtrak's case).

Glad to hear!
That was quick! Trains moving with delays, including the involved Acela (which I was trying to get on)
Someone under an @amtrak.com Acela train at BBY. All Amtrak and @mbta.com CR trains on the NEC stopped at this time while @fire.boston.gov and @police.boston.gov are investigating @universalhub.com @bostonglobe.com
ARSENAL WOMEN ARE CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE!
FOR A SECOND TIME!
I 100% agree that moneyed interests are the ones blocking housing.
The problem is that most people assume it’s CORPORATIONS and BILLIONAIRES - when actually it’s mom and dad and grandma and grandpa, voting for the city council /1

Good morning !
“Real solutions and positive experiences with government endanger the entire right-wing project” is why it’s so important to make experiences with government on the state and local level better
it was the best of timezones, it was the worst of timezones
AOC with important process notes. None of this is set in stone. We know where dems stand, so important to lean on swing GOP seats. I know my parents will be calling Garbarino in NY-02
Does anyone know if the bike path through Draw 7 park is closed, or just the parking area? Decided to bike commute thanks to the thaw, and found a major part of the route closed, and can’t find any information @somervilleinfr1.bsky.social @universalhub.com
Waking up on Monday morning like...
We cannot fix everything by fighting back, but we won't fix anything unless we try.

Elon is using his billions to smear USAID and its life-saving work. We need to use our networks to get the truth out. Please share: youtu.be/PqUESHfuO_8?...
Folks trying to save USAID are trying to counterprogram Musk's $40 million Super Bowl ad. They're asking everyone to share this video as widely as you can today: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqUE...
Isn’t that the point of signing up for communism in the first place?
If you try to build transit and active transportation infrastructure: Nobody is going to use this stuff, because everyone here drives!
If you try to build the dense housing that will support a transit/active transpo network: We don’t have the transportation infrastructure to support density!
This is so important. Reach out to your senators (I contacted Warren and Markey last night, but I knew they’d stand up on this one) glad to see the house Dems with more of a spine
Don’t let the angry car-brained pols from NJ and Staten Island drown out the real success congestion pricing has been. It’s success in NY will allow other cities in the US to dream
I was on a tangent and happened upon a quote either from hayao miyazaki or someone studying him about the philosophy of Princess Mononoke: “No matter how messy it gets, we have to keep living” and that is not stuck in my brain
Gotta love the very specific genre of political snark that is MA Dems being like “I will support Tr*mp and Republicans in doing (thing they will never in a million years do)” Katherine Clark has been doing it for months, and saw an op ed in that vein from Warren this morning
The hits keep on coming. We don’t even have to fight about roadway pricing to save the @mbta.bsky.social (but we absolutely still should). Luckily, our previous taxing of rich people has got it covered
The line now seems to be “individual action can’t save us, we need collective action against the fossil fuel industry”. Mark me as cynical, but if people stop prioritizing climate when prices go up a little, I hesitate to think what will happen to prices when you start shutting down oil companies

We gotta reject “Well, RFK jr. is right about some things” and accept “if we don’t confront the real problems with our systems, it becomes much easier for con artists like this guy to manipulate people.”

Overlaid text reads: 'I CAN’T FIND A PLACE TO LIVE' on the left and 'ONCE I HAD TO PARK TWO DOORS DOWN' on the right, contrasting housing struggles with parking inconvenience.
