Girlfriend bought tickets to Empire Strips Back but mistakenly got them for a show in Boston instead of Denver. 2 tickets going for $50 each. First come first served. Thanks!

Hi. I was visiting East Boston and need a ride to the airport tomorrow around 1 pm! I have two bags and two children aged 5 and 3 years. I don't have car seats and I'm looking for a ride to the airport. Can anyone help? I dont want to take the subway as it will be inconvenient with bags and kids. I'll be happy to pay! Thank you!

Was anyone affected by the 4/23 Natick Service Plaza McDonald’s incident? At some point they stopped taking in person orders and were just cranking out online orders. When a patron asked point blank if they were no longer taking in person orders, an employee answered, “hold on.” People in line began spreading the word to download and use the app. When we left one guy was declaring he didn’t have the McDonald’s app and wouldn’t download it. I hope he’s enjoying his breakfast burrito, wherever he is.

My friends and I (college students) are visiting from Texas and we went out on a Sunday night for drinks and to explore the city. We ended up at a park in downtown(copslide?) at around midnight and decided to go home. We decided to uber home, guys left first and us girls stayed to wait for our car. While we waited at almost 1 am because our uber took forever finding a way through construction, this young guy approached us in front of 711. He was smoking a cigarette (smelled very sweet?) and asked if he could borrow a phone to call his mom. He was wearing a black short cloak with grey faux fur trim, black pants, and dress shoes. He was extremely attractive, with a copper, an angular jaw and clear skin. He was striking in an almost disturbingly perfect way. When we let him borrow a phone he called a woman (area code 857) and spoke to her in Portuguese. I could only understand a little but I thought he asked about a “Caroline’s” phone number, which she said and he repeated back.

He mentioned to us he needed to call his mom because he didn’t have a phone, but asked the woman for a number. He had a brown paper shopping bag. He then walked into the hotel next door, walked out five minutes later went into the 711 and then came out with a drink. He then went back into the hotel next door.

When we were with him, a man walked past and called out what sounded like the name “ ———”. The youn guy said that was his name but seemed confused, as if the man hadn’t said it. It was ever strange.

Because we are not from here we were very confused and uncomfortable. We want to know if this is normal or something uncommon? Is it sex trafficking?

Edit** not Cambridge, closer to downtown Boston

Edit**** not a hotel, a shared office building called “center plaza”

Hi all!!

I’ve been looking online for adult riding lessons around Boston and would love to hear some recs / reviews / thoughts from riders in the area.

I moved to Boston a couple years ago after graduating college and lately I’ve really been missing riding. I’m realizing I probably should’ve looked for barns earlier now that I’m learning barns can have pretty long waitlists here but would really appreciate if anyone had any advice or suggestions on barns to reach out to. For context, I’m not that good but learned the basics in college and really enjoy it / looking to improve.

Thank you so much in advance!

Saw so many police officers race down boylston what is happening ??

Why is it so hard to talk to Boston wives ? Whenever I try casual conversation or honestly any other subreddit it’s all click bait or people not from here . Am I just looking in the wrong places ? Confused 45 year old male here .
