Among my hottest takes are: - Disney adults (esp with no kids) are ruining it for families by inflating the cost of everything. - Disney adults should seek therapy to deal with childhood issues, not more trips to Disneyland. - Disney should not cater to Disney adults. It’s for families. It’s for the kids.

Maura Healey, we really can't afford you anymore.

Kentucky Derby Day is one of the rare opportunities we still have to gain new customers, and this creates a terrible impression for those not already familiar with the downsides of betting on our sport. We certainly know how to push them away!

What we just saw in the late betting by CAW'S is what the every day players continues to experience. It's disgusting and thievery-but it won't change that's for sure. But to do it on the biggest days of racing is the CAW's way (or maybe the Japanese sent it on their own CAW platform) or basically sticking it to every player who is sick and tired of this nonsense. But the industry could not care less. Enough said.

So the BPS kids who play football, for whom the stadium was originally built, will still get the crumbs they were promised. Yippee.

Boston’s cutting teachers and running deficits, but don’t worry, there’s still money for “wellness grants” and block parties. Mayor Wu can’t explain where the money’s going, but she’s definitely spending it. bostonherald.com/2026/04/21/edi…

@smclaughlin9 outrageous that B’s have not had a PP this game

Malenstyn slashes Hampus Lindholm's stick in half, no call.

@ShawnHutcheon the way you break these down is great

Boston's Hampus Lindholm steps up at his blue line to gain possession of a loose puck while David Pastrnak collides with a BUF player at center ice. This opens the passing lane from Linholm to Pavel Zacha. Zacha & Pastrnak break in 2 on 1. Zacha sends a saucer pass to 88.

@smclaughlin9 Steeves hasn’t been great tonight but Hagens is not a 3rd line player. They need that line to be heavy and win board battles. Would have been ballsy but I would have thought about Hagens instead of Mittelstadt.

Maybe, maybe not. I would've played him in Game 5. I would've played him tonight. But let's not pretend Hagens brought "a lot" in the three games he did play. Steeves and Eyssimont have been fine- nothing more, nothing less. They created a scoring chance that period.

@Pack2F @GlobeKPD haha saving that for game 7

@wire2wre @GlobeKPD You should smoke a rally butt

#fridgealert: P3 BUF@BOS to begin 9:29 et

@BruinsCapSpace That was bad he has to shoot that. Whole team loves that back pass to no one though, take a bad angle shot and create mayhem, that’s how you score in the playoffs.

Alex Steeves completely killed a forecheck by passing backwards to no one. DONE with him

Buffalo exits their zone easily and enters Boston's zone too easily because Boston's players glide instead of moving their feet. Rasmus Dahlin threads the needle with a cross-crease pass to an uncovered Alex Tuch.

@WillyDiBa7 @BruinsMedia11 yeah I was there too as soon a final horn blew I was outta there walked home from Garden to Southie after, couldn’t bear to watch the Cup, friend I was with stayed behind for it

I was there at 10 years old flat and I remember it vividly. I was at the end that Chicago shot at in the third. It was just a complete blur. You were like ah fuck alright let’s get ready for overtime and then before you could remotely settle into that, it was 3-2. Then before you could begin to comprehend that it was in fact 3-2, it was over. I also forced my dad to stay and watch the cup since I figured we’d prob never see it lifted again. So that was cool, albeit devastating.

Just a friendly reminder that we had the Blackhawks on the ropes and would've beaten them 9/10 times

Boston asked big tech 3rd party food delivery companies to use mopeds in 2022. We never had drivers cutting between cars @ red lights, so many deliveries running stop signs & the wrong way on one-way streets & sidewalks. Moped food delivery facilitates speed over safety. #bospoli

The National Women’s Soccer League opted to keep its schedule as is for now, but kept the door open for a calendar flip in 2031 that could prevent Boston Public Schools football teams from playing at White Stadium down the line. bostonherald.com/2026/05/01/bos…

@YIMBYLAND I bet there’s a shit ton less public pools and block parties then when I was a kid. I know the swim club I grew up going to closed decades ago. But my kids still play pick up sports, though baseball is a lot to ask. Plenty of wiffleball, basketball and street hockey though.

The most extinct thing in the entire movie isn’t the public pools, the country fair, or block parties. Those all still exist. It’s the idea of kids playing baseball just for fun. No trophies, no tournament, no parents, just play. Travel sports has ruined a generation of kids.

It’s bad to send your kids to private school, it’s bad to send them to gifted and talented programs, it’s bad to donate to the PTA. It’s still okay to read to your children, but maybe not? The ones who emerge morally unblemished, of course, are non-parents who spend on travel, dining out, political hobbyism, etc. The project to anathematize intergenerational altruism won’t change the behavior of parents, but it will drive exit and further polarization.
