New England friends, I wonder which towns and cities are taking the #climate crisis seriously. Your thought(s)? We have seen more extreme weather already (#remember Leominster), and b4 this we knew that burning fossil fuels would make our atmosphere warmer, less stable, so I hope we're seeing real momentum in the way of adaptation and mitigation. Who among us is listening to indigenous voices? #SomervilleMA comes to mind for their transportation and pro-Palestinian work, but let's hear more!

Boston/Cambridge/Somerville peeps:

If you need a futon, or anything futon-adjacent, I want to give a HUGE shout out to Bedworks in Central Square.

Yes, I'm sure you already know about them and I know they've been there forever and I know they're practically an institution (I think I bought my first futon couch from them in the 80s?)...

but it was just *such* a lovely experience to go in and buy something local and spend the time having a lovely extended conversation with the staff person there (wish I'd gotten his name!)

If you're new, welcome - this is my weekly project to highlight weird, wonderful, iconic #events happening near my home (#SomervilleMA) - anything that looks worth the trip lands on the list.
I share my work with you in the hopes of building both community and connections. I only do this on the #fediverse, and usually ask only for a heads up when you find something useful. #BostonWeekend 2/x

We’ve done two of these since opening, and both have been a huge hit! Groups that met here have gone on to form long-running campaigns that ACTUALLY MEET UP TO PLAY REGULARLY (😱), so not to toot our own horn or anything, but we’re basically gods. How it works: snag a ticket at the link in our bio; get a drink from Nook or Rebel Rebel on your way to the shop; fill out a name tag with the games you want to play, the nights you’re free, and whether you’re willing to run the game; then chat to some like-minded folks and get planning! It’s gonna be gross out on Saturday, so come hang with us and do something fun in our cozy little wizard’s tower. See y’all there! • • • @bow.market #lfgs #dndevents #dnd #ttrpgs"16 likes, 2 comments - sidequestbooks on April 10, 2025: "⚔️ Calling all adventurers! ⚔️ If you’re looking to join a D&D campaign or find some folks to put together a one-shot of Thirsty Sword Lesbians, this is the meet-n-greet for you.
