erm, @raiseupma.bsky.social, might be good to send this only to those whose senators *did* vote for amendment 14. Mine didn’t, and that would also be valuable information. #mapoli
I was encouraged to see a few on my walk back to the train, mostly on young adults
Reading of the Declaration of Independence at Worcester’s American Antiquarian Society (which we also were given a chance to sign)
On our evening walk around Boise tonight, I made sure we went to see the progress-flag-striped flagpoles in front of City Hall
I am in Idaho for a conference. I won a potato. My colleague (also from Massachusetts) accessorized the potato.
Travel day for me meant reading on the plane, and I very much enjoyed @mariebostwick.bsky.social’s The Book Club for Troublesome Women. Imagine who read Betty Friedan…
How the Tartan Army has altered the brain of this Bay Stater: I just came out of a building, saw this statue, and my first thought was, “but where is the traffic cone?” I am in Boise, Idaho.
Morning greetings from the site of the cross Atlantic tea disagreement
While I am disappointed they didn’t knock it out entirely, they’ve at least update the proposed translation and interpretation regs to add the following, so we don’t have machine interpretations for specialized terms.
Always good to see one’s comment acknowledged in the DESE proposed regulation feedback. www.doe.mass.edu/bese/docs/fy... #MAEdu
Please enjoy this photo of a very disgusted cat who does not WANT to stay in the interior hallway, thank you very much.
Sharing this, taken at the middle school in Blackstone tonight, for anyone who needs it:
There is zero evidence of this. I don’t know how one can have the temerity to sit in front of a Congressional committee and say this on the public record.
From my morning email. That “connecting with families” is both seen as important and so not important that we can turn it over to the plagiarising autocomplete is really something.
Stopped to take this on my walk to work and offered a photo of two young men taking photos of one another. (Important to continue to subvert that unfriendly New England image)
Here is why we have been going in and out our back door for a few weeks: we have babies in the front porch planter.
Swiping this phone from the Mount Washington Observatory from this morning, of rime ice on their sign: What are we NOT going to do in the White Mountains this weekend, Massachusetts? We're not going to go hiking unprepared for WINTER weather. There's snow in the peaks this weekend!
A bit of @gwlandtrust.bsky.social joy this morning from Donker Farm’s newest residents; they arrived via the United States Postal Service to the Worcester main branch this morning! (Sound on!)
