What's extra funny about this: by making this an issue, so many more people have seen the arrested penis than if they had just left her alone.... #NoKings

This is really kind of epic:

#RFKJr was at the #NoKings protest in #Boston today. @50501movement.bsky.social @indivisible.org

Crustifa seems have been a big hit. I'm seeing a lot of evidence. #Boston #NoKings

LOL: I saw someone call them "Amphifa".

LOL. I was just watching some #Boston #NoKings local news coverage and I was like--why so much blurring, but not the faces.... And then I realized. There was significant swearing on the signage. Matt Damon had a great interview Actors Studio about our love of "fuck" as an all-purpose word.

Brb just writing a screenplay about a struggling inflatable costume factory in a wholesome but dying American small town that unexpectedly helps save democracy, and democracy saves it right back.

Some of my favorites from #Boston #NoKings massive event. I only saw a fraction of the people, really. A gorgeous day to be surrounded by neighbors who are wicked pissed.

😍 Boston, you are beautiful. #NoKings

I know those of you of my vintage know this by heart. Sing it loud! #NoKings #WeThePeople youtu.be/8_NzZvdsbWI...

This is perfect!!!

Love it!!

They are underway in Paris! The French helped us out the last time too.... #NoKings

Nice to see some actual consequences. But he'll probably just get a job with ICE now.

People's image of farming: red barns on hills. Actual farming: dangerous as fuck.

LOL. "Wicked pissed" is right. See you at #NoKings #Boston.

WWNPPWD? What would a Nobel Peace Prize winner do....? I'm guessing it's not this.

Just found out that a friend of mine planning her #NoKings stuff did not hear about the call to wear yellow. I'm wearing yellow lace. 💛⭐🟡🟨👍

Here's a nice story: a lost puffin was rescued near here. "Don't screw up the puffin, bro!" www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2...

#CRISPR coral reefs. In times of #climatechange, the losses are piling up, unfortunately. I am also here for #GMO chestnuts. www.noemamag.com/editing-natu...

People have finally talked me into doing a beginner #BobbinLace workshop in the #Boston area. Will be in #SomervilleMA at Joy St Studios-- #MBTA accessible. Full details: www.thebostoncalendar.com/events/begin...

I know we are all focused on another history parallel right now--but this one is a real problem too. Decades of damage are already underway. #Lysenko #RFKJr skepticalinquirer.org/exclusive/th...

Heh. #MIT

@jsundman.bsky.social enjoying your reminisce about the Jim Kent coding drama on the #HGP. #MIT @longnowboston.org #Rev250

Who could've predicted....

I'm sorry, is the Trump Administration talking to a tech platform? Is it...requesting content moderation?

This is a really important point. They want “meme authoritarianism.” They want rage. They’re getting frogs & aging hippies. Not great optics—for them. But great for us: you build a movement by showing folks that they’re part of an energized and hopeful “us.” Let’s go!

#ProtectTransYouth please

📣 NEW: This morning I wrote about 9 states taking action to mitigate the impact of the expiring federal #ACA tax credits. Just hours later I learned that it's actually 10 states; #MASSACHUSETTS is extending their expanded ConnectorCare program by another year! acasignups.net/25/10/13/mas...

I took this photo in 2014.

7th grader. #ICE

What? The foodie claims are bogus? Oh no. And Dr. Oz fell for it? I'm shocked. of course.

it actually offends me how sloppy and careless they are. anyone who’s ever been laid off knows the panic you feel when it happens. and while obviously it’s good that they backtracked, these are people’s fucking LIVELIHOODS they’re messing with.

I am not a fan of public health run by the Keystone Cops. Unfortunately, they also have education and economy divisions too.

Footage of the #Rapture. I guess is was real.

"Many liberals repulsed by Mr. Kennedy’s unscientific bias against vaccines and Tylenol share his unscientific bias against agri-chemicals, genetically modified organisms and industrial agriculture." Yeah. It's hard to watch on many levels. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/o...

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Judges order more immigrants freed from #ICE clutches, including 13-year-old boy now locked up with men at ICE's office prison in Burlington www.universalhub.com/2025/judges-...

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

I know professional Democrats are very reluctant to attack Republicans directly, but a competent political party should be able to make the case that there’s no point in signing a deal that Republicans won’t honor. It’s time to start calling Republicans dishonest dealbreakers.

#IronLung view from a letter to the Boston Globe today. #Polio #vaccinessavelives

This retired librarian’s monthly health care premium is going from $441 to over $1,100. It’s outrageous. It’s immoral. I’m going to keep fighting for Ken to have health care he can actually afford.

This headline 🤣🤣🤣

Is anyone keeping something like a "Historian Departure Index"? The number of historians leaving the country seems relevant to me right now.... See also humorists, @bagleycartoons.bsky.social . Still could be called the #HDI. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

100 years on the right side of history. Seems it wasn't always easy. But it looks important from here. #GiftArticle #HUAC www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/u...
