Jane<p>PSA if you're in South/West <a href="https://datavis.social/tags/BostonMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BostonMA</span></a> , there's a huge fire at a recycling plant in Roxbury, and the wind is carrying the smoke across a lot of the city (I drove someone to the airport this morning so could see where it was dispersing heading southbound). Keep your windows closed / run an air purifier if you have one. The smoke is white so I thought it was just fog but you can definitely smell the burnt plastic / whatever else is burning if you are in it outside</p><p><a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/boston-fire-roxbury-construction-waste-recycling-center/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">cbsnews.com/boston/news/boston</span><span class="invisible">-fire-roxbury-construction-waste-recycling-center/</span></a></p>

The Senate Chair of the Massachusetts Joint Committee on the Judiciary is Lydia Edwards, who represents Third Suffolk (#Revere, #Winthrop, and parts of #Boston).
The House Chair is Michael Day, who represents 31st Middlesex (#Stoneham and parts of #Winchester.
If you know anyone in those districts who cares about electronic privacy and the 4th amendment, it'd especially valuable to have them on board.

It should not be as hard as it apparently is to buy a Pizza Hut personal pan cheese pizza in #BostonMA. Is there a Pizza Hut or Pizza Hut "Express" anywhere in the city or its environs which reliably has one when you show up to buy it? If there is, I haven't yet managed to find it.
Today at the #Target in #WatertownMA they had none, and the majority of the few items they had out for sale were mislabeled. Real amateur hour vibe.
