A thread explaining for #mapoli the right way to think about shutting down subway service for repairs & replacement: 👇

Chris Friend @friendchristoph

I have been thinking over the last few weeks about how to think about the trade-offs between work done at nights, on weekends, and for month long shutdowns of transit lines.

So I wanted to put some numbers around those thoughts—>

Boston's progressives aren’t representative of real progressive mvnt, certainly not mvnt born of #RainbowCoalition. Warren had plans for everything while running for Prez, Black/brown haven’t heard peek of plans since.

The transphobic hatred being spewed by the right now includes threats of violence against doctors and hospital staff at Boston's Children's Hospital. Sure makes it hard for the bigots to claim they're transphobic for "moral" reasons https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/08/17/metro/right-wing-groups-hit-boston-childrens-with-barrage-threats-over-trans-health-program/ #mapoli #LGBTQ
