when are we going to get a meta thread? to say it's LONG overdue since the last one would be an understatement.

Certainly they needed to lend their vast expertise to other places. Criminal and constitutional law, war strategy, childhood mental and medical care, etc.

All the time, also will have a good police presence to turn people around. I work on sets often.

Thanks u/SchminksMcGee for suggesting contacting the local news, it's working!

Thank you! Definitely would not have happened without everyone on r/boston and sending me to the news stations...

The Korean air flight code shares with delta. To Korea it was/is operated by Korean air. To the US it was/is operated by delta.

OP, if you can afford the non-stop it is worth it. Flown through DFW, SF, DC, and Istanbul Boston<->Seoul and direct is worth it.

What should have happened was they got their mid life overhaul back then and then wouldn't be nearly in as bad shape today. But they didn't so here we are.

Worse, I bet the RMV will do nothing to ensure this sort of issue doesn't crop up again in the future.

The Korean Air flight can be purchased through Delta as well. Depending on the tjme of year/when you purchase, the cost difference between the direct and non-direct options are not always that large, and may be worth it to not worry about missing your connection!

Reply to Formula 1 Bars in Boston by houstonwehaveadoge

Not sure about bars but there’s a Formula 1 watch party group on meetup! They meet for each race at a coffee shop in the north end called Caffe dello Sport. I’ve been to a few of the watch parties and they were always a fun time!

Here’s the link to their meetup page: Formula 1 Boston

hopefully they keep appealing and bring this up to federal courts, but it sounds like they're content calling it a day since the mandates have been thrown in the trash where they belong so they don't care anymore.

Should've never been a case to begin with. I'm sure the RMV won't do shit to compensate this man for all his wasted time and resources, either. Maybe a "whoops lol" from the state, if he's lucky, but I doubt they'd even apologize to him

It's probably more likely for Canada geese to be considered a "nuisance" species, rather than "invasive," since they actually are native to MA. "Invasive" is usually reserved for species that are non-native.

considering the mandate was announced on august 16, 2021, he was right that the mandate preceded the approval. no amount of thought police removing posts changes that.
