journalist doing videos and other online things for @wbur.org in Boston. the secret is to bang the rocks together, guys. she/her
we did guys & dolls my junior year of high school and it was an absolute blast - everyone was having just the best time on stage. the songs are SO good!
Guys and Dolls is the show that is most likely to be wildly entertaining regardless of which company is staging it, up to and including 7th graders.
what is the best musical of all time and please explain yourself so i know whether or not to be angry at you

"it's actually ephebophilia" was like very rampant in a lot of the early online discourse of the late 90s/early 00s & I absolutely cannot believe it is rearing its head again

I'm gonna go touch some grass, which I would also recommend Ross Douthat do, and then will also maybe scream into the air for a bit

I am doing the Artist's Way and this week is ... no reading. I do need to do some reading for work but I am also interpreting it to mean not reading Reddit or anything here so... see y'all in a week!

Doubtful I will ever see Tron: Ares but the soundtrack is by Nine Inch Nails and it is quite good

Oh you definitely want to check out this Head of the Charles & rowing primer from my awesome @wbur.org colleague @meghanbkelly.bsky.social. It has all you need to know before heading to the river this weekend. It's hilarious and SO well done.

i convinced my husband (late 40s, also a dad) to get shorter shorts and they look great on him!! men, wear the short shorts!
just saw a commercial mocking chubby dads for wearing tiny shorts and this is a) not the variety of short straight heterosexual men in their late 40s wear and b) working directly against the cultural momentum we have been pressing forward sisyphean for my entire life and i WILL NOT stand for it

This morning in WBUR Today: Why did ICE detain a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts (and then transfer him to Virginia)?

"I think the government's intent is to hinder effective legal representation," his family's lawyer told WBUR: www.wbur.org/news/2025/10... @wbur.org
Boston judge gives ICE a deadline to justify detaining 13-year-old boy from Everett
An attorney for the boy's family says ICE then transferred the 13-year-old to Virginia last week without his family, lawyer or a court knowing.

I met my husband on an ancient social media platform and in more recent times I have made friends, leading to the very job I am currently working at
Has anything great happened in your life because of social media?

I need more “late bloomer” stories! Tell me about the things that you did at 50+ that you never thought you’d do or finally got to do!

And if you have examples that aren’t you, bring ‘em!
I’m over 50, and my first TV show came out on Friday. My first book, a novella, will come out next year. I’m a late bloomer.
