I’m seeking info on immigration lawyers in Boston - a friend of a friend was abducted by ICE in the area.

A decade ago for a linguistic typology class in undergrad, I did a deep dive on West Greenlandic/Kalaallisut. If anyone cares for some light reading describing its morphophonology in the context of other Inuit languages, you can read my final paper for the class here: 1drv.ms/b/c/65e01cf8...

Further proof that I'm too nerdy to live, my first thought was "Greenspan is still around?"

Someone decided to feed the Canada geese and ducks in the Fens, the reign of the birds begins now in Boston

FASCISTS: lol chomsky is in the epstein files the libs are sooo mad about their hero LIBERALS: the commies are sooo mad about their hero COMMUNISTS: the anarchists are sooo mad about their hero ANARCHISTS: we're sooo mad anyone thinks we like chomsky. sucks for the linguists though LINGUISTS: lmao

what the fuck did I just wake up to

I couldn't fall asleep, checked a group chat, and well, not a fan

Not bad, 31 books in 2025 (titles in alt text). Like a third are book club books, bonus points if anyone can guess which lol From this set, I’ll rec Feast of the Goat by Mario Vargas Llosa, it’s a retelling of the end of Trujillo; if you like complicated lesbians, I’ll rec all of Baltasar’s novels

My friend's boiler went out yesterday evening on Christmas and she's across the country so I've been catsitting. I'll take any Xmas disaster stories while I wait for the boiler guy 😅

I feel like multiple PhD theses could be written on a) why are there so many covers of Last Christmas vs any other Christmas song specifically b) why that song seems disproportionately popular to play (in the US) in Asian establishments vs others

this is where being a non white new englander rules because I get to be a j crew wearing, education loving, emotionally avoidant reprobate while still getting my due culinary respect

I gather that the wokening is here

Lol mookie betts just gently shaded miguel rojas in the post game interview, "I wasn't expecting a homer!"

I don't think miguel rojas is gonna be able to enter Canada again safely after this

Condolences to Canada, congrats dodgers fans* and all who didn't have a heart attack, baseball is a wild ride, what a great series, mvp Yamamoto please *I'll cop to not being totally displeased since I was born in socal

Sharon,

Sure 19 innings let's go

I don't think miguel rojas is gonna be able to enter Canada again safely after this

baseball!

Come on baseball fight

Crazy ass diving from the jays defense

Whoaaaaa

Ahahaha what a series I love baseball, I hate baseball

Every world series I learn a new baseball rule

Wow blue jays are just cooking

Bieber is having a bad streak/Dodgers remembered you're supposed to hit the ball

Ohtani going straight from pitching to batting, absolutely insane

Hell of a catch to start game 4

I enjoyed posting with you all, may we never repeat this lol

Imagine if we didn't have a pitch clock lmao

Klein is also not gonna have an arm after this

Yamamoto in the bullpen ahahahaha

You know what mookie I'm glad the red sox traded you 😩

Uh why are you pitching to him. I'm glad that this ends things but like,

I've managed to decide to heat up and eat some emergency frozen taiyaki and the game's still going

If we're all sleep deprived tomorrow then they can't fire all of us *taps heas*

Announcers are at the staring at fruit trays part of the game, and I'm with them

Is lauer gonna have an arm after this game

Tilting my head towards the sky and laughing

Muncy is trying so hard but no we're all stuck here together, forever

I hope these dudes get to sleep between games 3 and 4

Lol they have one guy left in the dodgers bullpen

Ahahaha

Might've chosen poorly

actively choosing baseball over sleep

Why didn't the third base coach just have him stay on third

a tenth inning is going to give me psychic damage

How on earth do you put this pitch here

If the dodgers win it'll be ohtani carrying them bc damn

Damn Kirk turned this game around for the blue jays (laudatory)
