With the election ten days away, make sure you and your folks plan when and how you are getting to the polls so we don't miss this opportunity to elect pro-climate reps across the country! If you haven't, TODAY is your last chance to confirm your voter registration at VoteInMA.com or Vote.org!

RT @councilordurkan.bsky.social Our most vulnerable road users deserve safety when walking, biking and traversing our streets. Hope to see you at the hearing on Thursday, October 22 at 2PM! You can testify virtually or in person. Comments and testimony can also be sent to ccc.plandev@boston.gov!

Addendum: upon even further investigation, Twitter user "zestmcquest" discovered that this IS in fact a deliberate change, done on the NSO emulator level as a patch (the ROM is the same, the emulator changes the expression). However, we still do not know why is was changed.

In the Nintendo Switch Online version of Mario Party 3, Daisy's happy winning expression was changed to a more serene or confident one. This is the only expression that was changed. It is unknown if this is a glitch or if the developers believed it to better express her personality.

Lol, their idea of making it safer is... adding more paint.

Hours of unsuccessful debugging tonight reminding me service workers are the most frustrating #WebDev API I regularly use. App cache wasn't perfect, but it was a heck of a lot less work for basic offline functionality, and sessions like this make me miss it.

Ready for @steampoweredgiraffe.com in Boston tonight!

So uhhhhhh… Apparently meta's muse "AI" is just straight up doxxing people to strangers on FB marketplace??? This has the potential to hurt so so many people, and I genuinely wonder how long before they roll out a fix for it.

It's the last Monday of September, which means tonight at 6 PM is our monthly general meeting—and it's our first as the formally-recognized-by-the-City Neighborhood Council for Davis Square! Join us at the Crystal Ballroom to talk community events, developments, and more!

partiful.com/e/Onk9t1UApT... “A coming of age story about freedom, debt, and a bike.” We are doing a group ride to the only Boston-area screening of this new indie film featuring a bicycle as a symbol of personal agency and economic independence (+ a video Q&A with the director and lead actor)!

Shout-out to the driver of the blue Toyota with the very memorable #MA_33 plate for close-passing me within centimeters while I was biking on Curtis/Winthrop only to have to stop short for the same vehicle ahead I had slowed for 😑

In @csindie.bsky.social: "After more than a year of in-person and virtual community meetings that refined these designs, curb work will begin in the next few months. Unless, that is, the Cambridge City Council votes for a policy order to delay this work for five years." csindie.com/close-the-ga...

@discord.com I see now why age verification started rolling out, fuck this and fuck you for doing this

MassDOT Board Approves $79 Million Contract to Start Building Mystic River Bike and Pedestrian Bridge mass.streetsblog.org/2026/09/23/m...

Riders 8 to 80ish braved the drizzle to commemorate the completion of the Broadway bike lanes. Schools, day cares, museums, and multiple neighborhoods now benefit from better pedestrian crossings, signage, and protected micromobility travel. Thank you to the many who spoke up over the years.

Broadway Safety Improvement Ride. Cambridge, MA.

Made this because I'm still pissed about how dangerous it is to ride my bike on Cambridge St. We are now 2 months out from promises that were clearly not kept.

Join us on Broadway (Cambridge) this Sunday, the 20th!
