#BostonWeekend 25/x Sat - Wrestling! Boston League of Women Wrestlers (#BLOWW) at the Somerville Armory - 28$ - BLOWWBY DICK

"Shiver yer timbers and hoist yer jocks, mateys, for the Boston League of Wicked Wrestlers has set sail for high-camp seas! That's right, our rowdy roster of queer buccaneers has been cast adrift into a world of scalawags, sea curses, and sapphic swashbucklers! A lawless ocean where power be taken, not given, where gold buys loyalty (or at least a round of Davy Jones' Poppers), and where the only thing sharper than a cutlass is the tongue of a queen with something to prove.

Booty will be plundered!

Alliances will be betrayed!

Someone WILL fall dramatically off the crow's nest (metaphorically...probably)!"

@EdwinG We're also making strides to ensure that bioswales and other city managed properties are prioritizing #NativePlants - #SomervilleMA, abutting northwest of the #Boston neighborhood #CharlestownMA passed a first-of-its-kind Native Plants ordinance back in 2021.

there's a kid on a bicycle going down the path with panniers full of icy cold beverages and snacks, loudly declaring the menu and pricing (everything's $1)

this is what conservatives fear

#SomervilleMA

Cambridge (MA, US) feels absolutely deserted today. Not sure if it's because everyone gets Juneteenth off now (would be nice, but somehow I doubt it); if everyone is WFH because of the heat; or if everyone decided to play hooky and go to the beach.

I wish I could be as excited as the social media person who wrote this post! Unfortunately, I know that this same ADA coordinator for the city literally shut down the Zoom account for the Commission for Persons with Disabilities in the MIDDLE of a meeting because the chair refused to change the meeting's agenda to her liking. That was in March. The Commission has been meeting without her ever since. Here's the meeting video on YT if you want to watch. #SomervilleMA

Not for nothing, but the city of Somerville posting excitedly to social media about the Braille printer tonight is A WHOLE LOOK. The machine was purchased over a year ago but never used! This ADA coordinator has also (within the past month) been publicly called out (including by me) AGAIN for hindering accessibility for some residents and blocking work of the Commission for Persons w/Disabilities.

Like, this is A WHOLE LOOK. Not a great one.

Thu June 12, 7pm - Free screening @ the Somerville Armory of MA-based independent documentary film, "Hero Camp!" with Q&A with the filmmaker after https://www.eventbrite.com/e/documentary-film-screening-hero-camp-tickets-1363568543219
Trailer: https://vimeo.com/879904219

Synopsis: Hero Camp! is a coming of age documentary that follows three queer teens on their paths towards self-discovery at a live action role-play (LARP) summer camp. Set against the backdrop of suburban Massachusetts, the film captures how this extraordinary camp community transforms our world into the fantasy realm of Sidleterra, where they battle villains from the writings of Homer and Lewis Carroll. As each of them invent and role play as their camp characters, they unearth revelations about their own identities, which they gradually carry over to the real world.#SomervilleArmory
