These rules are really fantastic news for Massachusetts housing. The state has adopted almost all of the most important aspects California's nation-leading state ADU reforms; so I would not be at all surprised if we see a pretty major ADU boom in the Boston suburbs over the next few years.

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

Got to see the second of three arch spans for the new Portal North Bridge being floated down the Hudson today, up at Poughkeepsie! A very cool sight to see, and a welcome one as a frequent user of the NEC.

"Boxcar buses normally make five stops across Manhattan before going through the Lincoln Tunnel during the afternoon commute, which used to take about 30 minutes. In the first few days of the week, Colangelo said, it took 12 to 14 minutes." www.northjersey.com/story/news/t...

I don't know if the LA fire department is properly funded or not but the claim that the city cut its budget last year — which is circulating widely on the right — is false. As Politico notes, the budget actually INCREASED by $50 million. A portion of the funding was approved in a separate bill.
