Have you considered condemning literally anything that musk, vance or trump have done in 2025 Steven? Or does that pale in comparison to the unfathomable horror of someone being rude to Councilor Bergman on account of his terrible voting record?

Remember that the republicans talking about “coming together as americans” and “putting politics aside” cheered on j6 and put let’s go brandon stickers on their trucks. The next 4 years should be about us telling them that they’re trumpist garbage and that we despise them

Between the rising tides of climate change and the rising tides of maga chuds, the free city of Worcester will be a new Capitol. The dome over Worcester keeps out both god and trump
Love to think about how Worcester is an especially attractive siege target in an “if and when” type scenario

“In Worcester. Problems like you wouldn’t believe. They’re fucking the turtles. People. They’re going onto the Worcester common and fucking people’s turtles in broad daylight. And Kamala Harris is letting it happen”

In the interest of fairness and hearing both sides I’m proud to announce my teach-in for white dudes with incredibly off-putting vibes and terrible politics!

Super cool how everything from American democracy to the Mill St bike lanes are under threat because our deeply stupid society doesn’t have the stones to tell people who are 1000 years old that they shouldn’t be driving or presidenting anymore

I refuse to learn what a Hawk Tuah is but it sounds like what you would hear if you asked Candy Mero Carlson to pronounce a non-european name!

You couldn’t pay me to watch this debate. And I regularly watch the Worcester City Council meetings!

Would be nice if we could actually accomplish goals in Worcester without dealing with the whining of Petty’s bourgeoisie!
Replying to @CommonTalkPod
Hank: Did you listen to the people or were there rooting interests from Councilors who are landlords or in real estate? Petty dismisses that & thinks it's unfair, "I'm not going to listen to that." He said you can be on any side of the issue but it's not fair to question motives

ShotSpotter reps: “we agree!”
Replying to @marco_cartolano
Mero-Carlson says that Batista has always been there for D2 and appointed Saucier interim chief. She hopes for him to be chief

Excited for the city manager to get a crocodile in urban development!
The rubric city councilors use to evaluate the city manager looks straight up made for little kids. And probably out of necessity lmao

Wowwwww! Shots fired! (Pun very much intended. And King is 100% right here)
King said he feels the questions and responses from Saucier feel tainted based on his previous interview for a position with ShotSpotter.

What he means by “neighborhoods being served” by shotspotter are the “good neighborhoods” that DON’T have shotspotters but want WPD to overpolice the “bad neighborhoods” that do have them
Replying to @CommonTalkPod
On the budget It's easy for folks to say the City should cut ShotSpotter, but "tell that to the neighborhoods" that are being served by this technology says Petty.

I’d like to duel some of these public commentators tbh. Especially fred. The Worcester common can be our field of honor fred
We now have dueling public comment lines at Worcester City Council

I’m glad that mill street is the only recent example of councilor bergman grandstanding to privilege what he sees as the in-group while ignoring the harm and danger to those he sees as lesser people!
All the more relevant now that he’s going nuclear about mill street

It speaks to his fundamental lack of empathy for others. Worcester’s pedestrians and bikers don’t matter to him because they’re too poor to buy cars or something. How dare the city ask the driving betters to follow very simple rules like everyone else?
