Thinking of trying to go to this before it leaves Boston. Sharing in case some of you are interested as well! I also want to go through my grandma’s old pictures at some point and see if she has any from the Little Syria neighborhood that would be worth sharing with them.

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

MLK was only 39 when he was killed. Growing up, I thought that was old. But I’m 43 now and I’m stunned by the burden he shouldered at such a young age. I’m also a lot more aware of how hard it is, at any age, to carry the hopes and dreams of an oppressed people on your shoulders, as so many do.

Did the FIFA peace prize mean nothing to him???
JFC.
Trump is now blaming his bullying and demands to be given Greenland on not being awarded the Nobel Prize. Why should he be nice when they're being so mean to him and not giving him the prize he insists he deserves.

to Greenland, reiterates threats, and is forwarded by the NSC staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. I obtained the text from multiple officials:
Dear Ambassador:
President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ji7lroxun3yvv2pxhcf7jqsn/bafkreiacnq65zyhibvgcurronexc6jujh3m4ujldgb3ygdolthoeeqbqw4@jpeg)

There used to be a diner in my hometown called Bob’s Restaurant. My senior year of high school we used to go there with our off-campus privileges and get Bob’s Big Breakfast. It was the sort of place that differentiated between a milkshake and a frappe. Delicious, cheap, and tolerated us as teens.

please tell me about your favorite lost restaurant (closed for at least 5 years, like I really want you to go back into the vault), why you loved it and what you ate there

You may have seen this video of a woman shooing away two ICE agents with a bat go viral. It's fake, an AI-generated video. Here's how you can tell and how to fact-check similar content:
