@MBTA I'm so sick of the fact that my 12 year old cannot depend on your buses to get to their medical appointments. So, so tired.

@SlaveryarchiveX @elotroalex @DukePress Fantastic news!! I see a way to request a desk/exam copy, but not to preorder it otherwise. But will keep an eye out.

The members of the #Slaveryarchive Digital Initiative international advisory board are publishing great work. Pre-order @elotroalex's new book "And the Dogs Were Silent" with @DukePress dukeupress.edu/and-the-dogs-w…

@CambMA @KenFrankenstein You’re a communications center? Do what Somerville does and be a communication bridge between city hall and constituents.

@veek @KenFrankenstein As noted in our bio this account is not monitored 24/7. Additionally, we update the snow center as soon as our communications office is notified and distribute out the info as quickly as possible.

Stay up-to-date on all things schedule-related with the Cambridge Snow Center. View the very latest on potential closures, delays or parking bans by visiting cambridgema.gov/snow.

@CambMA @KenFrankenstein Nah, the timeliness of the responses wasn’t the problem. It was that we asked you for info on when to expect the next update, and you did not in any way use your city hall connections to find out. Instead you referred us to (lack of) info we already had anyway.

@CambMA @KenFrankenstein Whoever you are maintaining the city’s Twitter account, please be more useful next time.

@veek @KenFrankenstein The page was updated at 5:30 p.m., you can see the latest information here: cambridgema.gov/snow

@CambMA @KenFrankenstein Except Cambridge Public Schools have announced a closure. cpsd.us Not that the snow page is updated. 😱

@KenFrankenstein Hello! There have been no new updates as of now. Please feel free to check back later if anything changes.

@CambMA That's not at all an answer. Things WILL change, one way or another — right? The city will confirm no closures or declare an emergency. By when can we expect a decision?

@veek Good afternoon! There have been no new updates as of now. Please feel free to check back later if anything changes.

@corsent No kidding. And also, chillingly, this guy perpetuates an old narrative going back to at least the Italian futurists.

@themba Octopus street snack, Padova, Italy. Fancy lunch, WD50, NYC (RIP). Some molecular gastronomy place, Chicago ~1998. My mother's kitchen table, growing up. Japanese food, FuGaKyu, Brookline MA. Steak, my bro's place. Anything, Georgian (country) food restaurants. Pernil, anywhere.

@roopikarisam Still doing the gods' work, I see.

Ready to teach Hegel, with My Little Pony. As one does.

Extreme House Republicans are marching us toward a government shutdown. They can’t even get an agreement among themselves. The solution is simple: Stop playing political games with peoples’ lives.

NYPD officers have made over *1 million* traffic stops since Mayor Adams took office. Black drivers were ~9x more likely to get searched than white divers. gothamist.com/news/nypd-has-…

@profwernimont …Did you?

@ChaseSupport I'm getting a blank screen saying only "Internal Server Error" when signing into your website. Is this a known thing?
