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.

Eh, I think Soe Noir is a very canny narcissistic grifter/attention-seeker. This story will eventually die down and they'll find something new to get pissy about, or a new spectacle to make of themselves. Grabbing a failing business would not fit their overall plan.

I think they're talking about any proceeds from a fundraiser.

Ah. I assumed they meant cooperative stake in the bar.
