Adding on... We all know this, but visual of Worcester County.

I'm old enough that I do my drinking at home and do not drive when I do. And I abhor anyone who does--People I love and care about are out on those roads, not to mention I might be too. DON'T DRIVE DRUNK.

Still... Not a fan of these roadblocks/checkpoints. Sure, have increased presence, increased patrols, 'rolling roadblocks'. But to me these are just too damn close to "Papers, please" and it makes me uncomfortable.

I might need new glasses as I initially read that text as a SORORITY checkpoint. You pull up, roll down the window and some cheery co-ed asks: "Delta-Delta-Delta can I help ya, help ya, help ya?"

i really want the city to do its best to resist gentrification—there are TONS of hew housing developments but almost all of them are loft/small apartment style housing essentially made for young professionals

For clarification, it's in Worcester County, not necessarily in Worcester itself.
