I love the Louis D. Brown Peace Institute. They’ve posted this list of food resources for Boston families. Check out the rest of their initiatives (including the annual Mother’s Day Walk for Peace). They do such good work!

Pro tip: apple cider vinegar removes plantar’s warts way better than the dumb patches you get @ CVS that fall off & restick to the wrong part of yr foot 1/2way thru the day. Soak cotton pad in ACV & tape to foot @ night. Remove during day. Thx for this life update, Lan Nails, S. End, Boston!

Thanks for nothing, @americanair.bsky.social. I got to Logan airport at 3am to find my 5am flight to Dallas delayed by 2 hours, so I missed my connection to Oaxaca, & you didn’t rebook me until Tuesday. Now I’ll miss 2 days of a conference I paid for & have been waiting years to attend. #aafail

The Trump admin has just detained Mohsen Mahdawi, who:
–has green card
–was Columbia Buddhist club president
–saw his best friend shot & killed by Israeli soldier
–said "we are against antisemitism because antisemitism is a form of injustice, and injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere"

Dear Secretary Rubio,

Hi, Tufts professor here. As someone who was on campus during the time in question, your claims about what Rumeysa Ozturk did bear no resemblance to reality. So did you just revoke her visa because she co-authored an anodyne op-ed that never mentioned Hamas?

Sincerely,

DWD
Marco Rubio on Rumeysa Ozturk: "We revoked her visa ... once you've lost your visa, you're no longer legally in the United States ... if you come into the US as a visitor and create a ruckus for us, we don't want it. We don't want it in our country. Go back and do it in your country."

Well it was nice while it lasted, I guess?
So, the National Endowment for the Arts announced today that they are reworking the guidelines for all 2026 grants and will be prioritizing projects that center the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. It's now just a propaganda fund.

Woke up worried about my son’s friend who has seen ICE agents at the T station near her house & is now afraid to go to school. Then listened to devastated Swedish officials describe the worst shooting in Swedish history @ a school that offers language classes to immigrants. & now this. “Audacious”??

How is this even possible? Trump never heard of Project 2025, nor knew a single person involved in crafting it!
