Illegitimi non carborundum. Make some plans with a friend this
#BostonWeekend 1/x
Friday should be dry, cloudy, and hit the 60s
Saturday +/- 42F all day with a half inch rain - starting up midday

Saturday 11am #BostonCommon - Look, you know you've got to dress for conditions on Saturday. Prolly gonna rain and be chilly.

You're going to a protest and will be standing outside on wet grass for a couple hours, wear the good galoshes and carry a spare pair of socks for afters. Leave fido at home. Friday is a good day to buy a decent poncho or otherwise upgrade your standing-outside-in-the-rain gear. Hot cocoa or equivalent afters. Hopefully the rains aren’t bad before the scheduled 2pm rally wrap, fingers crossed for at worst a drizzle.

Here's a site with a schedule, but don't feel the need to 'sign up' - but feel the need to 'show up'. You're making plans Friday with your mates to travel inbound together on Saturday morning, right? Taking the T? You're not going to be able to find people in the crowd, make a plan to protest.

Friday 2pm - #RedSox Home Opener. They won their first two at Baltimore, and they're up against the Cards Friday. Tickets available north of $150/seat, and with weather in the 60s, taking a half day at the office to get a beer and a hot dog in the grandstands might make your heart soar.
Or maybe it overwhelms you with anxiety and makes your heart sore.

Oi! What the dickens is this thread anyhow?

Well, I'm Knizer, and I started compiling interesting #boston events as a way to self-motivate exploring my beloved and vibrant #NewEngland and called it #bostonWeekend here, because why not share it with my neighbors? Its become my little #hyperlocal content-generating project to help me meet some neighbors (you're all lovely) and gives me something to talk about when I'm bragging about our lower-stress, no advertisement, social media lifestyle here on the #fediverse

No algorithm - you've got to post, boost, or like stuff, its the #CategoricalImperative of the fedi, that, hope, and some trans and/or furry server admins keep this place running.
Anyway, rock on, #Massachusetts and surrounds.
