It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

The statements on the CDC’s webpage are now false. They rely upon data that has been revoked by medical journals and debunked by a large body of high-quality research. There is no one single cause of autism. Research exploring factors that may be associated with autism is already underway. But we know definitively that vaccines do not cause autism. Numerous studies have demonstrated that vaccines are not associated with an increased risk of autism."

There were two Coast Guard Jayhawks circling the arboretum this morning for some reason. Practicing approaches to the Faulkner?

Since a jury this week correctly determined that distributing sandwiches is not a crime, federal agents are now advised that we will be delivering their orders "in a kinetically enhanced fashion" at all our locations.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.
A SSRS/CNN poll showing 61% people think Trump has gone too far using the power of the presidency and 57% think he's gone too far deporting immigrants.

The arboretum is looking a little spooky. That blur in the lower right is a ghost and totally not my finger.

Stopped by the counter protest at the Roslindale Substation today and discovered that my dog is doing the disaster girl meme face.
A black and white dog wearing a rainbow bandana in profile standing on a sidewalk with counter protesters holding signs. She is giving the camera side-eye reminiscent of the disaster girl meme.

I’ve started this new routine with my dog where I just put her on a leash and let her decide where to go. It’s causing me to see things in the. Neighborhood that I never noticed before
A black sign in front of a house that reads “In this house, we believe that Wade Boggs drank 70 beers on a cross country flight from Boston to LA and went 3 for 5 the next day.”

I can confirm this. Between 5th grade through college, I played trumpet and breathed exclusively through my mouth, even when I wasn't playing. I learned to breathe normally again when I couldn't bring my horn with me to my first apartment. I wish that Kevin would be more careful with his words. /s

I love you, Bluesky.
Your Hegseth Insult About Mouth-Breathing I saw a meme on BlueSky where you are quoted calling Pete Hegseth a "mouth- breathing dipshit." Seriously? That's the best you can do? I would have thought that anyone teaching at Princeton would have a better vocabulary, be more creative, and have more intelligence than to use "mouth-breathing" as an insult. That is an ignorant attempt at an insult that has been around for far too long and it needs to stop being used. To begin with, singers, brass and woodwind players breathe through their mouths most of the time because it is most efficient, takes in more breath more quickly, and is part of our technique. In addition many people with sinus and allergy issues often have to breathe through their mouths. Equating mouth breathing with lower intelligence is just flat out stupid and beneath someone of your stature. I guarantee that most professional musicians like myself are probably smarter than most people and we don't use ignorant insults that are inaccurate and stupid! We use more accurate insults. Sometimes we get more creative, but in Hegseth's case, he's not

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.

Sounding like some major swatting going on at UMass Boston: Several calls/reports of gunfire, students cowering in a Science Center classroom, gunshots at the campus Dunks, BC High. So far no victims, no evidence of gunfire. BC High was put in lockdown, but again, no gunfire or anything there.
