@SenWarren @EdMarkey What can we as residents do about this?

Just so we’re clear: if we’re challenging #birthrightcitizenship then all aspects of the #Constitution are on the table, including the #2ndAmendment. LFG, Dems!! @SenWarren, @EdMarkey @HouseDemocrats @SenateDems

I posted about a work project being frozen under the OMB funding order, and I got this message from an old friend who works for the federal government. By “demining” they mean “removing land mines.” Let this sink in…

#twitterstorians: Who in the Boston area is doing work on the intersection of topography and history? Particularly looking for someone who can provide context for the environmental history of Cambridge’s tidal flats/marshland and their manipulation by humans over time. TIA!

Friday, but that I had better hurry up or I would have to wait another week. Then they kept saying that they “were able to fit me in” on Friday, like I should be grateful! Meanwhile, my mom is in assisted living without a bed. Never again will I give any business to @MyBobs!!

[Beth Folsom @BethFolsom4]

I will *never* use @MyBobs ever again. I have been through the wringer just trying to get a bed delivered to my mom at her assisted living facility - the first delivery driver forged my mom’s signature, and the second ignored my request to check with

the staff there because my mother gets confused. The driver took the items and left without talking to the folks at the front desk yesterday morning. Then, when I called to ask when they could return with the bed, they told me they would try to do it that

[Beth Folsom @BethFolsom4]

afternoon and, if they couldn’t, definitely today. They were supposed to call me back either way, which they did not do, and when I called them this morning they told me the delivery had been canceled. They told me that I might be able to get a delivery date for this

I’m pretty sure the Ten Commandments were posted in that school, and yet…
