Yeah, this totally isn’t how roundabouts work. Do you drive much? Most multi lane roundabouts exit on at least two lane roads. They’d be single lane roundabouts if not.

Edit: also if you follow the other rules about yielding this wouldn’t be an issue. You’re clearly part of the problem.

Your post appears to be one of a number of commonly asked questions about the port city of Boston. Anyway, Royale is fine if you're just trying to get drunk and dance and hookup. The Grand is more of the same as Royale but more expensive and a stricter dress code. Bijou is fine if you're into house music, the last few times I've been to Bijou the crowd was mostly freshly 21 people. Legacy is under Royale and a pretty great queer club if that's you're thing. Good Life, Phoenix Landing, Middlesex, and The Lower Level are all great for underground shows if that's your thing. The vibes at those 4 places are all pretty good. Good Life is my favorite and they open back up this weekend. If you're just looking to get trashed and don't care what you dance to or who you dance around, any of the bars around Haymarket/Faneuil Hall will do. Ned Devine's, Hennessey's, Hong Kong ($1 chicken sticks!), Sissy K's, Coogan's. I think there's a few more I'm missing but those are the big ones. Also, I can't believe I forgot this, but if you're into top 40 or hip hop, Venu, Cure, Icon, and Hava are places to go if you're looking for something a little nicer/fancier/more upscale than what the Faneuil Hall/Haymarket bars and clubs offer. I also forgot about Memoire because it's in the casino but frankly I don't really know anyone who goes to Memoire regularly. It's more of the same stuff they play at the Grand and Royale. Now I think I've named them all. Also, please check the sidebar for visitor information.

If uber drivers are being assaulted its absolutely an uber problem. Less people will want to work for uber if they feel unsafe. If people are being assaulted harassed oh and shot on the T its a T problem ending in less people will want to ride it. See how that works? I mean just look at the litigious society we live in we blame corporations and companies for everything its never the individuals fault. The T has a reputation for violence and harassment that is 100% a problem for them

Oh i see now we only blame the perpetrator because its convenient. Not the neighborhood not the cops not the location or the people in that location. Just stop its absolutely a problem for the T that people feel unsafe or uncomfortable using using it. I acknowledged theres nothing they can do about it. But pretending it away is also asinine.

It's been so long since someone posted in response a study or official link to something as a way obfuscate a discussion. Even longer since I've seen someone shoot themselves in not one foot but both.

>"cloth masks did not produce a statistically significant difference"

Kids aren't wearing cloth masks. Those masks aren't handed out. Cloth masks are made of cloth. The masks being handed out are surgical masks, and many wear better variants. Kids are wearing surgical and respirator masks, which have an increased chance at blocking the spread of COVID - which is all these things ever aim for. The flu vaccine, for instance, is never 100% effective. It doesn't even need to be. Same with masks.

If you can find a school handing out cloth masks, or asking kids to wear cloth masks, you let them know about that study. Otherwise, the disposable masks people are wearing aren't cloth lmao

I’m not someone who usually smokes, but I love taking a couple gummies before the aquarium and watching the penguins. I feel like I could watch them for hours.

Especially if you go near feeding time, it’s very entertaining to watch the behavior of different penguins, they def have different personalities.

Also if you know someone who works at MGH they get really cheap tickets.
