#BREAKING: Vineyard Wind, a large and nearly complete offshore wind project off the Massachusetts coast is suing the Trump administration for pausing construction last month. @wbur.org

@lesleynope.bsky.social Hello from south of the border! Today is apparently National Hat Day (not sure if that's just the US but it shouldn't be) and you're the first person I thought of. Hope you remember for the reason for the season and wear all of your hats today!

The Nationals announced today they will begin producing and broadcasting games directly through MLB this season, ending a 21-year relationship with MASN. www.masnsports.com/blog/entry/n...

It's your turn to take the mic. Take our quick and easy survey: bostonu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

The increasingly common habit of screenshotting the AI summary of a Google search and presenting it as evidence must be nipped in the bud immediately. That is nothing. That is not anything, it is not a thing.

My goodness. Sports announcers: this is how you do it. This is how you make sure your fandom is open and welcoming to all. Well done, Kraken crew.

We have a state fish (Atlantic cod), state beverage (cranberry juice) and state dessert (Boston cream pie). But what would you serve up for your official meal of Massachusetts? Tell us at the link.

A Zoom meeting tale as old as time

This is pure poetry from @drewmagary.bsky.social on the special kind of unpleasantness of a trans-Atlantic red-eye flight. I always feel this way, coupled with guilt knowing my ancestors spent weeks on a much less fun boat trip making the same voyage centuries ago. defector.com/after-the-re...

Thinking about taking a pause from drinking in 2026? Or are you already sober? Come to CitySpace this Friday for a panel and NA bev tasting. I'll be there with author and The Luckiest Club founder Laura McKowen, Dry Humor bottle shop founder CJ Mutti, and Mountainside Treatment Center's Jana Wu.

Hopefully not Pride Night.

Thanks for the heads up about #NationalCuddleUpDay, @mspca-angell.bsky.social ! I tried to tell Bear about it but he couldn’t hear me over his snores.

Well according to Naughty by Nature , The last P is not that simple

I find this type of comment so elitist. It IS the most inconvenient and stressful form of long distance public transportation, yet people still use it in droves because they have no other choice. Are we going to just pretend that's not an insane class divide worth highlighting?

will not be making a list of New Year’s resolutions until I see 2026 making a few of its own first

The first noon (ET) in Boston for 2026. A little blue sky is poking thru the clouds over Comm Ave. I’d guess about 1-2 inches of snow on the @wbur.org roof deck. Hope it’s a good start to the year for you.

Wishing everyone here on the skyline a happy, healthy, and lovely start to 2026. Good riddance, 2025.

Who up forgetting they auld acquaintance

I was also intently staring at the door waiting for @dgquovadimus.bsky.social to emerge with coffee. Bear did it better.

"Take On Me" by a-ha will always be one of the best in my book.

Well that can’t be right.

Thank you, James Moylan, for one of the best car "user experience" inventions. It's up there with intermittent wipers, steering wheel stereo controls, and the old magic fake cassette that let you use a Discman in the car. www.jalopnik.com/2061179/inve...

Greetings from a quiet and gorgeous Comm Ave in Boston, as seen from the @wbur.org roof deck. Hope it’s a great Sunday wherever you are.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden or Alice in Chains.

Took Bear for a walk in the snow this morning and threw some snowballs for him to chase when we got home. Shoveling is done and the nephews are still quiet and in their room - time for some coffee before the chaos. Have a great day, everyone!

@kdcaseywrites.bsky.social Just finished Diamond Ring (years after buying it for a vacation that never happened) and thank you for the whole trilogy. Besides great romance & writing, I really appreciated your world building. Oh and the suburban Maryland shoutouts. So thanks.

I also have a favorite traffic sign pic from this year (August, Falmouth MA). I am often reminded of the saying “If there’s a sign there’s a story.”

Oh hey look it’s our dog Bear getting in a little side hustle for his other dad’s @fusillithekid.bsky.social job with the @mspca-angell.bsky.social!

Sometimes it's the same person.

Are... are the public safety leaders drunk and drugged?

Can’t wait for Mr. Beast to host.

Today I made my @wbur.org social video debut talking about my favorite story: Nova Scotia's annual gift of a Christmas Tree to Boston. Check it out. Huge thanks to producer, editor, and generally awesome human @meghanbkelly.bsky.social who did all the hard work. youtube.com/shorts/nsO9h...

Just got Whamageddon'd by @npr.org's All Things Considered. Taken out by my favorite program. Jeesh.

Is it weird, as a Nationals fan, that I'm sometimes envious at how MELODRAMATIC Mets fans can be? Alt text of original post: New York Post front cover showing an image of a drunken Mr. Met with booze bottles, with a concerned Mrs. Met & Grimace, and the headline "Ya Gotta Bereave"

ME: [seven days into the Twelve Days of Christmas, showing up at the bird store again] hello, I would-- BIRD STORE GUY: no. you have to tell me what you're actually doing with all these birds before I sell you any more.

This would be “talking to” my grandmother exactly as much as a ventriloquist with a picture of my grandmother on her lap making my grandmother say “I love you” while she drinks a glass of water.

Warren Towers forever! A great look by @wbur.org’s @moranwriter.bsky.social at the 21st century makeover of the giant residence hall on the @bostonu.bsky.social campus. And stay for the quote by a Warren alum. 7B & 10A forever! www.wbur.org/news/2025/12...

Had a blast at the Garden today with @fusillithekid.bsky.social, @sararose37.bsky.social, and Mr. Sara Rose watching the cast of #Shoresy take on the Bruins alumni. Amazing how some YouTube jokes led to this. Bring Nat, Miig, Ziig, and Laura Mohr next time!!!

This is a great read. I went to, relatively speaking for someone not living in Toronto, a lot of Blue Jays games during Delgado’s time there. I can still hear the Dome’s PA announcer yelling “Carlos Delgado!” with such early ‘00s vigor and that gorgeous hint of a Torontonian accent.
