I confess I did not know Mr Morse’s first name and am also not acquainted with his code! 😂

Yes, please on an Ida B Wells movie!! #HATM

Update: I've seen it. What a lovely old film. A little screwball, a little heartwarming, a little post-war commentary. And a little fashion!!

I’ve never seen this but I think I’m going to based on this dress alone!

It seemed like such a fun thing when I got invited, but I lasted two seasons.

Not every Little Women is a Christmas movie, but this one is, and also Laurie needs to shut his damn mouth.

I hadn't heard either of the main stories here, so this was fun! I assume you were not speechless for long in the TMNT screening. (I saw it as a double feature with a friend either before or after the Hunt for Red October at the Tivoli and we just mocked it the whole time.)

This is…not how you sext, right?!

(But seriously, hoping for a good outcome!)

All I can think of is Hessian boots of the early 1800s-set romance novel heroes and how we aren’t getting nearly enough visuals on the Hessian soldiers!! 🙃

That's so cool! I have a couple revolutionary ancestors, but know very little about what they did other than nothing terribly notable. #HATM

F-35s retail around $100 mil. Lockheed got a bargain.

Somehow I’ve erased the exact date from my memory, but I knew this anniversary was approaching. I think about her so frequently. ❤️

Ohhhh, now I remember this one! I think the schedule never worked for me and now I no longer have access to the employee rate. 😭 (the perk I miss most, maybe more than the libraries!!)

Yep. He’s been terrible for so long it’s almost too late for shame, but if we never hear about him again that will suffice.

Oh neat! That’s how I took my course. Not sure if the Am Rev one was still available or I just missed it!

(I haven't had the focus to watch the series yet, but one of the most fun things I did shortly after moving here was take a formal history of Boston course. Robert Allison taught it, and it was great!) #HATM

I can't find a quick map with all the annexations, but this one of the landfill changes is neat. (Castle Island is way to the right by the looped in water.)

Down by Fanueil Hall there are bricks marking the old shoreline.
