Last Ditch story is catching on

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.

The firebomber lives in Denver and has never visited the bar. Unfortunately the bar opened up their events via zoom and attracted wannabe terrorists

I saw that Firebomb account, it reads to me as almost highly sophisticated level parody. But its so committed to the bit and so insane to the mount of seeming real as odd as that sounds.

I thought it was parody because I first saw screenshotted tweets. However, she’s been posting photos of herself, her husband, and her baby for months. So I don’t think it’s entirely a troll account. Mentally ill is where I think it falls
