‘I don’t want to be here anymore’: A Mass. lawyer fights to help children held at ICE detention center in Texas - The Boston Globe Corey Martin has previously volunteered on immigration law projects involving residents here on Temporary Protected Status and on asylum cases.

"Martin is a commercial litigator based in Massachusetts, but she has been drawn to helping children at the Dilley...There, families are held in trailers behind chain-link fences. Many of the children seem listless, tired, and stressed, Martin said. Some were constantly sick."

Yep, they did/do it. Did you see what Malkin did tonight?

Right. The league doesn’t care about headshots. So he wasn’t a pariah in the league. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I don’t know what to tell you. I saw it happen over and over. It’s different from playing with an edge. The NHL doesn’t take headshots seriously, so it doesn’t even get mentioned on broadcasts when it happens.

Yep, can’t argue with the cups. I lived in PGH for 7 years. Every game I saw Hornqvist play in - every single one (maybe 8-10 games) - a player on the other team was down on the ice, play was stopped, trainers were out because of a headshot from Hornqvist. Always an elbow, always along the wall.

I love Pittsburgh, but the Penguins have been a dirty team for years. Malkin, Hornqvist, Guentzel, …. The fans deserve better.

I’ve seen enough. It’s time to shut the humanity experiment down. Good luck to the cockroaches who inherit our irradiated remains.

As a kid, I didn’t believe my father when he told me that Indiana Jones and Han Solo were played by the same person - “no one is that amazing.” Being Indiana Jones, Han Solo, and this guy, that’s even more amazing.

Mayor Michelle Wu, Boston Public Health Commission Announce First Black Life Expectancy Report and Efforts to Address Longstanding Health Inequities BOSTON - Friday, February 27, 2026 – Mayor Michelle Wu today announced the first-ever report analyzing life expectancy among Black residents in Boston as a part of the Boston Public Health Commission’...

NEW: Black Boston residents have a life expectancy 6.6 years lower than other residents. In a city rich in health care resources, this stark health inequity is unacceptable.

That's why we're partnering with @danafarber.bsky.social to invest millions into the health of Black Bostonians.

How ‘Sharknado’ Casts Its C-Listers and Nearly Landed Trump as President Months before he declared himself a candidate, Trump was set to play commander-in-chief in the schlocky Syfy film franchise that has lured everyone from Ann Coulter to Charo for cameos while regular T...

Every once in a while, I think about the fact that Trump was cast as the U.S. president in "Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!" but then decided to run for the actual office of president instead. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-featur...

...a dish best served cold.

It was just a few years after I graduated from Harvard w/ a comp sci degree + having completed my pre-med coursework, that Summers made comments about innate differences & women's "reluctance to work long hours" that contribute to our underrepresentation in STEM.

Idk how much more clearly I can spell this out, but the NIH budget doesn’t matter when THESE ARE THE PEOPLE deciding how to spend the money.

See you in the streets March 7th.

Clinical psychology depends on scientific evidence, but research from @chopwood.bsky.social et al. suggests that the kinds of data most commonly produced may not always align with what clinicians find most useful in practice. Read the article in American Psychologist: doi.org/10.1037/amp0...

The medal ceremonies at the 2026 Winter Games have looked different from past Olympic ceremonies. Not only do athletes get their medals, but they earn a commemorative stuffed animal as well.
The animal in question? Tina the Stoat, one of the official mascots of the Milano Cortina Games.

Everyone needs to know that the stuffed animal being given to Olympic medalists is “Tina the Stoat!” #MMM2026
