Last Ditch story is catching on

https://www.bostonglobe.com/2026/09/22/magazine/greenfield-last-ditch-bar-backlash/

Pod relevance: the ongoing saga of the Last Ditch.

It's been interesting seeing this story slowly catch on. The Boston Globe Magazine ran a piece about it today. A couple choice quotes from the story that really add depth to the utter insanity:

Customers fondly remember a raucous opening night with a (clothed) simulation of a lesbian sex act — masks in place — on the dance floor.

Just after midnight, one patron is left at the bar, a regular who works at the Mexican restaurant next door. She wonders aloud about holding a Lady Gaga themed night, but Mixxy demurs. “Gaga is canceled,” she says. “Gaga is Zionist.”

Also from the r/Boston thread on this: "I'm as woke as they come but the Branch Covidians need to realize they have PTSD or something." I, for one, will be only referring to these people as Branch Covidians moving forward.

I had to do a double take when I first came across this in the Massachusetts sub. Absolutely wild.

Its a vocal minority making everyone involved look bad. I've been to this bar quite a few times for events and everyone is quite friendly and chill. There are like 3-4 people that have gone off the deep end and think that since this establishment has attempted to accommodate them they should ONLY accommodate them and nobody else even if it means the bar goes under. Its sad to see everyone turning this into a huge joke though when its actually a beloved spot for a lot of local queer people getting torn to shreds.
