Walked into Gracie’s for a post #handsoff treat and walked out with 2 tshirts (with a donation to the ACLU) AND a sweet treat.

Shout out to @unlikelywords.bsky.social for being super rad.

East Boston business owners keep ICE at arm's length by knowing their rights Three East Boston businesses were visited by ICE one day in February β€” but agents weren't looking for any specific individual.

Hey, ICE: People in East #Boston know their rights.

We stood strong at the Transgender Unity Rally at the MA State House today after a week of legislative attacks on our Trans & Queer community.

Let’s be clear. We have always been here, & we WILL always be hereβ€”trans & queer people are in every community, resilient unbowed.

Oh, man, we were just getting ready to do a recap of the infamous IT'S BOMBOGENESIS BABY blizzard of aught-15, when more current weather snuck up on is. NWS says we could get up to 6 inches on Sunday, so no, not a repeat, but still.

You know what to do.

My love language is when restaurants leave doodles or notes on my takeout.

Tonight’s ramen features 3 smiley faces and a snowman sticker so basically I’m enamored.

Rewatching Mighty Ducks and have had a couple aha moments:

Guy from Mighty Ducks is THE SAME KID who bullied Cat in Casper.

They replaced the skate store guy in D2. Apparently it’s the first guys brother?

Some of these kids are taller than Emilio Estevez

Coach Reilly still is peak villain.

This place has such a special place in my heart. One of the first places I worked in Boston. Glad to see Brighton is staying open.

If I was a demon, my method of torture would be forcing people to put duvets inside duvet covers while a small person sings β€œla cucaracha” at full volume in the same room while a car alarm sounds outside the window.

Many will go mad. It will be delicious.

Genuinely concerned that I’ve somehow misplaced half of November. Apparently Thanksgiving is next week and my brain is stuck thinking it’s November 10.

Did some sort of time warp happen post-election I’m unaware of?
