Rather surprised that @jeopardyofficial.bsky.social chose to highlight Faneuil Hall - especially during #blackhistorymonth - considering it's namesake's ties to the slave trade, and that Boston City Hall has voted to rename the space because of it.

After all, the utterance of "Nuremburg" holds a great deal of meaning and understanding of repercussions to those holding major ranks.

If you think the Democrat's video warning about unlawful orders was meant for the lower ranks of the enlisted, you're mistaken. It was meant for the most senior of officers, particularly those who attended the Hesgeth/Trump meeting a month or so back; and that message was received loud and clear.

Am I shocked that @whitehouse-47.bsky.social is tearing down part of The White House? No, as it's symbolic of how the President is dismantling our democracy. What truly shocks me is that he didn't create a shell company that would capitalize on selling pieces from that demolition for his benefit.

Hoping someone here (or at @nbcnews.com) can explain why - on the Season 51 premier of SNL (10/4/2025 - Bad Bunny, host) - the "Information" kiosk clock shows 10:56 instead of the usual post-cold-open time of 11:30-something. Was this actually a delayed broadcast, and not truly "Live?" What gives?

I had a wonderful time catching the U.S. debut of "Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York) at the A.R.T. in Cambridge (MA). The acting, singing, and choreography / interaction amongst the (surprisingly) versatile and moving stage was amazing. Funny and emotional, I highly recommend seeing it!

To think, The Folk Festival was initially a federally funded initiative supporting (in this instance) the Lowell National Park & (nationally) the traditional arts. Thanks to Paul Tsongas for helping to bring it in 1987, and thanks to the City for continuing it. Shame that its future is in jeopardy.

Let's be real here for a moment, no one in the 99% buys 30 dolls in one year for their child. They may, perhaps buy three over the course of one year. So accoring to the out-of-touch President's percentages, no one will be buying (or can afford to buy) a doll this year.
