if that's what i believed the thesis to be, i would hate it too, but i always read it more as being about how even if we shine ourselves up to be impossibly fabulous and rich, we're all haunted by our pasts and lost hopes and dreams.

in other words, it's a lot like any Real Housewives franchise.

Anyone in Boston an immigration lawyer or know one who can help this woman? Her husband is detained at Logan over a dismissed misdemeanor from 2017. He’s a legal resident of the US. She just asked for help an hour ago.

If you do not enjoy protests, but do have some spare change - just go buy a bunch of inflatable animal costumes and bring them early to a protest.

Set up an 'inflatable animal adoption' stand outside Boston Common, for example.

They will find good homes and you can be home by lunch.

Things are happening at Portland's ICE facility tonight.

The Boston College Prison Education Program celebrated its second class of graduates with an inspiring commencement ceremony at MCI-Shirley. Four students (and one service dog) donned caps and gowns to receive their BC diplomas. 🎓

My most pure wish in this moment is for Kendrick Lamar is to work 'hyperbolic vituperations' into his next single.

Joshua J. Friedman @joshuajfriedman.com · 5d

"The reasonable listener of 'Not Like Us' would conclude that Lamar is rapping hyperbolic vituperations."

“Not Like Us” is replete with profanity, trash-talking, threats of violence, and figurative and hyperbolic language, all of which are indicia of opinion. A reasonable listener would not equate a song that contains lyrics such as, “Ain’t no law, boy, you ball boy, fetch Gatorade or somethin’, since 2009 I had this b**** jumpin’,” with accurate factual reporting. Accordingly, the reasonable listener of “Not Like Us” would conclude that Lamar is rapping hyperbolic vituperations.

this is yet another crushing example of magazines and other print media promoting unrealistic standards of beauty.

for starters: no way those nostril hairs are real. i've been growing mine for YEARS and they're not even half as long.

‘Love me do’ nope can’t top that lol and everything Dylan writes sounds like self parody.

Weird Al is the only correct answer.

Caitlin is 'le SPOOKY'. @looly.bsky.social · 6d

Brandi Carlisle is another good candidate if primarily writing for stage and shows doesn’t count.

Caitlin is 'le SPOOKY'. @looly.bsky.social · 6d

Probably Lin Manuel Miranda.
