Roslindale to Cambridge. I'll probably talk most about local politics and housing policy. Also into space stuff. Very bad Learned League player.

Corner of Prospect and Cambridge streets. The kids are alright
A pedestrian walk beg button sign with lettering removed and rearranged to spell out, "BUTT FOR SAlE" (butt for sale) instead of the original, "PRESS BUTTON FOR SIGNAL."

Life is about balance. Get mad online, but also: marry your best friend, go hiking, then read a book while floating on an avocado.

A Venn diagram with three overlapping circles labeled "I want stable services," "I want low taxes," and "I want low density." The overlap between stable services and low taxes is labeled "More density." The overlap between stable services and low density is labeled "High taxes." The overlap between low density and low taxes is labeled "Service cuts." The overlap of all three circles is labeled "Does not exist."

For context, this is what the first fight over 3A compliance was like in Marblehead. "DON'T MALDEN MY MARBLEHEAD"
Two women protesting at a rotary, holding signs urging a No vote on the town complying with 3A. One side reads, "DON'T MALDEN MY MARBLEHEAD"

There are many people like Christine, who would benefit so much from a safe, clean, private space to call their own. We can build more of them. But we need a city council willing to, even when it gets hard. www.abettercambridge.org/election2025

The fact that my dress matched @marcgov.bsky.social campaign colors for my first canvassing shift this cycle was just a happy accident. Tis the season!

The Jacobs House will serve as a main lobby entrance. Will include a meeting space. Small, intimate checkin desk for guests off to the side.

Early design stage, but this is what they're envisioning, with the House in front. I think it looks great.

Architect Timothy Mansfield is presenting now. Neighborhood context on Story St. I missed the previous side but it's similar. Lots of height and institutional buildings along with smaller buildings.

This is not a demo review. The CHC will vote on the balance of public interest to grant or deny a certificate of appropriateness for the project as a whole. Current House looks like this.

Hello from the Tony Awards and thank you for the last minute wardrobe help! There was a literal parade between me and my hair appt so I'm rocking my regular ponytail, making the game of "spot the tech workers" much easier.

I've added my name to an amicus brief supporting Harvard in its defense of academic freedom and due process. We’re hoping to grow our community to 10,000 alumni - join me here: bit.ly/HarvardAmicusBrief Alumni from any Harvard University school may sign. Please sign if eligible, and share!
A black graduation cap sitting atop a stack of three books, under the text, "Harvard Graduates: Our Alma Mater Needs your support! Join our amicus brief now." At the bottom, it reads, "Sign at bit.ly/HarvardAmicusBrief Deadline Saturday, June 7th, 12pm ET." Border color and some text are Harvard Crimson.

Josh Kraft will illegally and dangerously allow trucks to obstruct crosswalks and bike lanes, both of which this truck is doing in this photo. Michelle Wu won't!

Harvard Professor Suzanne Preston Blier claims she has "long supported" the 100% Affordable Housing Overlay. She wrote countless comments, authored several opinion pieces, spent thousands of her own dollars, and literally founded an entire organization to oppose it. She's lying.
