The truest facts ever spoken aloud about Somerville, MA.
Can confirm. Its shit and is basically an Americanized version of Soviet housing (high density/low quality). Which, if you know the 'ville, is fitting as all hell.

Honestly, you could negate the second "eles", but this is the sad state of @duolingo's AI content policy. Don't worry - the actual learners will correct the model eventually.

Happy 39th birthday to one of my favorite Black Sabbath albums!
Black Sabbath “The Eternal Idol” Released November 1, 1987 UK Tony Martin? Album artwork? Best tracks? Production? Today on The Metal Voice Note The Eternal Idol is the thirteenth studio album

The clocks changed, and I love standard time. We should be pitch dark at 5:00 PM. To be candid, most of New England should be on Atlantic Time, but that's a whole other conversation!

Scituate, RI bids farewell to Peggy who could never quite figure out to manage using Constant Contact. No booze, though.

I seriously think @AlfredAlfer77 should be brought on to the Rhode Island School of Design faculty to found a project for AI animation. RISD is serious as a heart attack about cataloging every form of art imaginable, and Emily opened a new door through sheer effort alone.

Unintentionally the most Brazilian tweet ever.
If three kids in your son’s class dress as Spider-Man, you are legally required to take this photo.

Just heard a song entirely in English on @WjfdFm and now I don't know what to think.

Wishing and hoping for the best for Ian Gillan.
Deep Purple canceled tonight's show in Leipzig and tomorrow's show in Hamburg due to a medical emergency involving Ian Gillan, who is currently hospitalized. The news comes at a difficult time for the singer, who, at age 80, had revealed that he has only about 30% of his vision remaining and that retirement “is not far off.” So far, no details have been released about exactly what happened.

So yeah, this recipe keeps winning me chili cookoff contests anytime I try for the simple reason that linguiça just has way more fat (and flavor) than 80% lean ground beef that turns into dry, flavorless crumbles after 8 hours in a slow cooker.
Replying to @lillybilly299
Portuguese chili. Diced tomatoes/puree/paste, diced jalapeños, caramelized onions, garlic, beef stock, black beans, browned linguiça (ground or sliced whole), and as much MSG, cumin, and Frank's Red Hot as you can throw at it before people's noses wrinkle.

I will also add that I have had no trick or treaters since I left Cape Ann almost 40 years ago. I lived in Japan for years (they don't trick or treat), lived in and around metro-Boston with no foot traffic, in the serious ghetto in Providence, and then rural route in Hope.

The Newport police department bodycam footage of the sailboat theft shooting in August has been released, and it's mind blowing. Thank God the officer survived.
Brendan Norris, 27, of Newport, Rhode Island, was killed during a confrontation with police aboard a reportedly stolen sailboat in Newport Harbor on Wednesday morning, August 26, 2026. One Newport police officer was shot in the lower extremity, treated at Newport Hospital, released, and is recovering at home.
