Update: Bicyclist, visiting from Florida, was turning from Mt. Auburn onto DeWolfe and the truck driver (who stayed on scene) tried to do the same thing at the same time.

A random shot in the dark question for #CambridgeMA people… Any recommendations for casual lunch places near Lechmere in East Cambridge for a large group on Sundays around 1 PM? We used to go to the Cambridge Galleria food court because it had many affordable options and could handle a crowd, but it’s closed until at least October. The fooda popup at the mall is just the same Mexican place every week. People have liked Blaze Pizza and Tatte. Is that all there is, or am I missing something?

Last weekend, Israel bombed ’s humanitarian safe zone, murdering over 45 people. The majority were children, women, and elderly.

Join us in grief, rage, and determination as we rally on Sunday June 2 to demand our elected officials hear us.

Exciting news, the #FreshPond Beer Garden is coming back on Friday! Possibly the most charmingly uncool beer garden in the #Boston area, and therefore my favorite. #CambridgeMA

Is this tree a goner? 🥺

@misc@mastodon.social avatar

@Kevin Lots of leaves! Did a quick google and saw it suggested that mushrooms indicate root rot - they don't kill the tree but suggest that it may be terminally ill.

Do you (or anyone following the hashtag) happen to know if #cambridgema has an office that will come out and diagnose a tree like this?

MIT Swap today. Not as many vendors as usual, but still still a decent amount of retro computers, radios, and free piles (my weakness!) here’s a quick tour of some of the things I saw
