Portsmouth NH #nokings

Is it out of line to ask people not to change the color of events they add to the shard calendar at work because it screws up my personal organizational system?

Here is a sneak peek at the "Waiting for Godot" set at the Players Ring in NH (opening on the 12th).
What is it and what's it for? Come see the show and find out! #stagemanagerlife

This is going to be a great conference, ya'll. Do you have your tickets yet? #BNEC2025

Labor Day Workers Over Billionares protest in Portsmouth NH

When you log into Quickbooks first thing when you get to the office and the dashboard has changed and you think you're having a stroke. Happy Tuesday.

And yes, the drying rack is on the porch for the express purpose of airing out my derby gear.

The reason I bought this house: so I can sit out here all day in a nice Saturday and introvert to my heart's delight. And that's exactly what I did today.

I'm home. I have a headache. My dog does not want to snuggle. We need to work harder on that skill.

Local friends! I'm at the BHTNH headquarters in Portsmouth from 5-8 (or until I get bored) for Art 'Round Town. Come visit me!

So hard to get coffee in the morning. My brain can't coffee before I coffee.

One of those days. At the drive thru for coffee. My brain says medium, my mouth says large.
I'm halfway to the second window before I realize what I said.

Next time you find yourself in Mason, visit the statue of Bode. Think about his experiences, the trust he earned to drive others' cattle, and as Elizabeth Orton Jones wrote, “What were his thoughts?"

Hulk Hogan and Harry Potter have a lot in common

* Very meaningful when you were a kid
* Changed the landscape in many ways
* Continued to be bankable way past their prime
* Critical analysis of the work finds it surpassed by so much more in the same field
* Legacy ruined by massive bigotry

You’ve inherited a movie theater what’s your double feature?

Memo to me: all your friends are talented and doing fantastic things, but you do not have the time or bandwidth to see all their shows and gigs. Do not feel guilty about this.

Juneteenth 2025 with @bhtnh.bsky.social

Not at a No Kings rally today. At a work event instead. But celebrating Juneteenth is a kind of protest right now, right?

Drove downtown in the rain...930 on a Tuesday night just to check out the late night record shop

Part of my job of fixing the erasure of Black history is telling reporters that there are, in fact, no images of that historic person you want to talk about. That picture you've been publishing is really a photograph of that person's daughter that people have been misattributing for years.

This #NHGives, @bhtnh.bsky.social recognizes Ona Judge's bravery and resilience by raising money to erect a mural of her on the side of our building. Your contributions will help to keep her memory in view and prevent further erasure of Black history in our state.

Despite many efforts by the first president to find and recapture her, Ona remained in New Hampshire, ultimately settling in Greenland, NH, where she lived the rest of her life; never caught but not freed.

On May 21, 1796, when the Washingtons were preparing to return to Mount Vernon from Philadelphia, Ona prepared to leave their household. With the help of friends among the free Black community in Philadelphia, she left on a ship heading to Portsmouth, NH.

Who was Ona Judge? (A thread)

Ona Judge was a woman - a seamstress, a mother, a wife, a community member. She was brave, resourceful, smart, and a hard worker.

Ona Judge was enslaved by George and Martha Washington (yes, that George and Martha Washington.)

This is just to say

I have eaten

that was looking
complacent

and which
you were probably
thinking
was safe from leopards

Best boy

the president wants to reopen alcatraz because he’s an old man with dementia who is mentally frozen in the 1970s and 80s. he’s not trying to distract you, his brain is just full of holes
