My recommendation for a restaurant in PTown would be Joon Bar, @stabert.bsky.social. My other recommendation would be to go in early September rather than the summer to avoid the crowds but still get the good weather. Tougher with kids, but you could do it for a weekend via the fast ferry.

“Oh so you’re always saying the Democrats need to get younger and are a gerontocracy but suddenly you’ll reverse that if the old person kicks ass and the younger candidate sucks?” Yeah I guess, that seems to make sense to me

I understand why @bostonglobe.com Puzzle editors didn't want to use "Pre-C.E." but this seems non-responsive and a (minor) violation of puzzle norms.

Any @bostonlegacyfc.com fans planning on heading somewhere other than Drawdown to watch the game tonight? The Banshee maybe? Love Drawdown, but their watch event says it ends at 11:30 (when, I imagine, they close) and I'd rather watch to the final whistle somewhere.

Just listened to the latest @xowngoals.com podcast, and now I really want the @bostonlegacyfc.com to sign Sam Kerr. If they're interested, I have to think they've got a good shot given the Mewis of it all.

To answer @stabert.bsky.social's question about the hold steady... Any claim Chad Finn has to Boston gets immediately rejected when he refers to the Common as the "Commons."

On its third attempt tonight, Marblehead Town Meeting approved an “MBTA Communities–compliant” district largely centered on the 125-year-old Tedesco Country Club, meeting 3A requirements on paper while all but assuring no new housing would be built. This comment says it all.

Listening to @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social's fawning interview with Platner was really disheartening. Barely a mention of "angry posts" framed as a marvel that he'd overcome the lure of the manosphere and NO MENTION of his appearance on a white supremacist podcast DURING THIS CAMPAIGN.

Can't see this without hearing the Saavik drop from @greatesttrek.com.

"They have not forgotten. They've kept the frames up." Worth noting, @stabert.bsky.social: That's not a choice. ISG's will requires that nothing be changed. They can't put up new artwork nor are they even allowed to take down the frames. Certainly a contributing factor to the story's virality!

Zoe and I can't make it to tomorrow's @bostonlegacyfc.com match, unfortunately. Our season tickets, 20 rows back at center pitch, are available. Free to a good home so long as you promise to cheer loudly for the home team.

i can't believe a representative of the Vatican openly pondering whether someone should be burnt at the stake in 2026 and my answer is, "Yes absolutely, do it slow." legrandcontinent.eu/fr/2026/03/1...

Everybody watches women's sports, Derek White at a Boston Fleet game edition.

Extremely disappointing to see @elizabeth-warren.bsky.social endorse somebody who is CLEARLY an antisemite for Senate in Maine. Really bad judgment here. Yikes.

Invited to a fundraiser for @mayorwu.boston.gov. Politely declined and told her team that if she wants my support she should get back to making streets safer for peds and cyclists and more efficient for buses. If you were also invited, I suggest you do the same. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/03/15/m...

After listening to people over-complicate the at large bid discussion, I made this handy flow chart to answer the question "Which bubble teams will make the tournament as an at large?" You only need to ask two simple questions. Hope this helps.

Listening to the latest ep, @stabert.bsky.social, and... yeah, that traffic SUCKED. We were stuck in it too... White Stadium can't be finished soon enough. Can't wait to walk to Legacy matches.

How is it only Tuesday? Friday can't come soon enough! #NewMass #GoUMass

Deeply disappointing.

Hey @stabert.bsky.social, how about a companion episode about the clubs that serve as community centers for Boston's working people, e.g. Elks, VFWs, Sons of Italy, Knights of Columbus, Hibernian club, etc... Prior guest Kelly McGrath of the Brighton Elks would be a good place to start.

Decided to jump on the @umassalumni.bsky.social bus trip for today's game to save myself the normal 5 hours of driving, so my regular tickets (upper section U) and parking pass (lot 25) are up for grabs for tonight's game against Northeastern. Free to a good home (read: a UMass fan).

Honestly, same.

JP Peeps! Trivia WILL be happening at the Haven tonight, so come by at 7 PM if you can safely walk there. As always, reservations appreciated.

Looking for somebody who needs my second ticket to tomorrow night's UMass Hockey game against Merrimack at Mullins. Free to a good home (read: a UMass fan).

New drip for the second half of the season. 😍

Today's podcast from @stabert.bsky.social is very on theme with the rest of my current playlist.

I got it correct, but this @learnedleague.com question is... just wrong! "Ira" is "rage." The missing word is "madness."

To answer your question, @stabert.bsky.social: tonic is definitely a thing. In my experience, it's HYPER local. Like, really only people from Boston itself. Doesn't extend to the rest of New England. My mom (occasionally) and aunts (consistently), who grew up in Mission Hill, all call it tonic.

Boston peeps: I have a single ticket for tonight's performance of Fun Home at the Huntington Theatre tonight that I unfortunately won't be able to use. Free to a good home if anybody wants to see a good production of a great show last minute!

Great episode about @bostonlegacyfc.com, @stabert.bsky.social. Zoe and I bought season tickets even though they're at Gillette this year because we were worried about ending up on a waitlist when they move to White Stadium. Can't wait for the season to start! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

After a 1 week hiatus, we're back as usual with trivia at The Haven tonight in JP! See you all at 7!

This is absolutely 100% correct. You only forgive Nazi tattoos and “Jews control the weather” rhetoric if you never really cared that much about them in the first place and are pretty much only concerned for your own personal safety. bsky.app/profile/mega...

Every single one of these people has come into the mentions of a Jew terrified about their safety and promised they’d protect them. And then then went off and said “oh don’t make such a big deal about Nazi tattoos and a violent Jew-hating coup-organizing monster you’re overreacting”

You fucking people will let anyone off the hook for their violent hateful beliefs and all they have to do is say shiny words you like You’re all a bunch of Nazi tattoo forgiving, Jewish space lasers forgetting gullible marks getting played for fools As a Jew I suggest you all go fuck yourselves.

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.

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

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...

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!

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. 😂
