  1. I’m not from Boston, but I’ve heard from so many people who grew up watching Bob Lobel and Mike Lynch. Photographing them together for The Boston Globe Magazine gave me a glimpse of what they’ve meant to Boston sports fans. Special thanks to Bob and Mike for getting out on the course with me on such a hot day.

  2. The Boston Globe’s Blind Spot

    Published August 2020, Blind Spot traced to a 2019 crash where a driver with a suspended license killed seven motorcyclists in New Hampshire, revealing his license was never revoked because a registry never opened a warning notice from another state. The investigation found half of all states break federal rules on sharing driver information. It won the 2021 Pulitzer for Investigative Reporting and prompted license suspensions and legislative reform. #bostonglobe

  4. Fairly well vetted article in the Boston Globe about Covid-19 SuperDodgers.

    The Boston Globe asked readers who believe they’ve never caught the coronavirus to share their experiences. They published a small variety of responses but covered the spectrum. As someone who is more careful than most, it was an interesting read.

    Almost as surprising, though there are the usual minimizers and deniers in the comments, there's actually a lot of pushback (I know, never look at the comments):

  7. yahoo news | Molotov cocktail hurled at home of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman - The Boston Globe

    A 20‑year‑old man was arrested on Friday after he threw a Molotov cocktail at the San Francisco home of Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. The incendiary device ignited a fire on the exterior gate of Altman’s residence before dawn, prompting a police response. The suspect fled on foot, was located an hour later at OpenAI’s headquarters about three miles away, and was threatening to set the building ablaze. No one was injured, and it was unclear whether Altman was at home at the time. Police have not released the suspect’s name, and charges are pending.

    Altman, who co‑founded OpenAI in 2015 and is known for the ChatGPT AI platform, lives in a $27 million compound on San Francisco’s Russian Hill. In recent years he has become involved in local politics, serving on Mayor Daniel Lurie’s transition team and joining other billionaires in influencing federal immigration policy. OpenAI and Altman have repeatedly been the focus of protests and security concerns due to the controversial nature of advanced AI technologies.

    The incident follows a series of protests against AI firms, including recent demonstrations outside OpenAI, Anthropic, and Elon Musk’s xAI, where activists demanded a pause on AI development. Earlier this year, OpenAI locked down its offices after a person linked to the anti‑AI group Stop AI expressed interest in harming employees, though the group claims it remains non‑violent. The heightened security presence reflects growing tensions between AI developers and their critics.

  10. The Boston Sunday Globe did a good article covering Long Covid but for some reason, it's the only article in the entire paper I can't share. So for the first time, I took screenshots and am sharing them here.

  11. #Minnesota raised #AntiWoke Warrior and former #FauxNews pundit #PeteHegseth has used his #DJT admin #DOD perch to preach his disdain for #Diversity and "dudes in dresses” but seemed to embody the opposite values when he wrote his masters thesis at #Harvard Kennedy School endorsing “Ensuring low-income and minority children have the same opportunities as more affluent majority students is an essential goal and worth pursuing with vigor and substantial investment".

    At that time in 2013, #Hegseth was working with a female Democratic state lawmaker in Minnesota on education issues, a decade before decrying the viability of females serving in the military.

    His proposal called for prioritizing a diverse student body and maintaining a balance of race, class, gender, and geography, using "geographic #quotas" for admissions.

    Hegseth wrote that closing racial achievement gaps was a "laudable goal" and promoted "#equality, diversity, and accessibility".

  12. Blast from the past: Boston Globe “special section” on Clinton Impeachment

    I’ve been gradually digitizing my paper files in alphabetical order, and today I got to the “government stuff” file. Here’s something fascinating I found there:

    I’m not sure why I saved this. I suppose I thought it was a historic moment of which I might some day appreciate having a souvenir. Little did I know that what I would appreciate, stumbling upon it nearly 30 years later, is the halcyon days when lying about a sexual relationship with an intern was nearly enough for a president to be removed from office.

    Of course, the GOP’s hypocrisy hasn’t changed at all. To say that Donald Trump’s misdeeds while in office have exceeded Clinton’s is to lie by understatement, and yet the GOP passed up two attempts to remove the twice-inpeached felon from office, and they continue to toe the line as he daily commits treason and works to destroy America.

    Nevertheless, back then I could not possibly have conceived that this is where we would be today. My, how things have changed.

    Anyway, should you happen to be curious, below is the full eight-page special report on Clinton’s impeachment from The Boston Globe. Or you can download it from here if the embed is too small to read.

  13. Ahahaha. We got outbid on a rental ! Boston/Cambridge has to be the most anarchic, insane housing market I have ever seen. Scum property agents, greedy landlords, and dubious algorithms working together to exploit the vulnerable as much as possible. I am not sure how most of what goes on is even legal, and how papers like the #BostonGlobe don't report on it. Very shameful.

  14. Fuck you #bostonglobe - This does not "deepen the divide" it shows the length that authoritarian fascists will go to stifle dissent.

  15. Earlier this year, I dramatically scaled back my news subscriptions because I had way too many and decided to re-subscribe only to pubs that came to my attention organically. Congrats to Chad Finn for being the one to convince me to re-subscribe to the #bostonglobe today. #redsox #baseball bostonglobe.com/2025/05/28/spo

  16. @knitcode the #BostonGlobe and the #Guardian had multiple top headlines about it, but the #DallasMorningNews and the #FortWorthStarTelegram had absolutely nothing, as if the protests hadn't happened at all

  17. #BostonGlobe No, #Trump cannot run for #reelection again in #2028

    President Trump has said more than once that he might like to extend his stay at the White House. But he can't run for reelection in 2028 and seek a third term because the #Constitution does not allow it.

    Here’s what the law says. [paywalled]

    But can't he do this?
    1) Trump runs as VP in 2028
    2) President resigns
    3) Trump gets 2 years more

    [With his health, I doubt he will make it to 2027 but...]
