#BostonWeekend 17x 4pm Sat PUPPETS x PROTEST - Bread and Puppet theatre, 4pm in #CambridgeMA Bread & Puppet Theater presents "Our Domestic Resurrection Revolution in Progress Circus" outdoors on #CambridgeCommon on Saturday, Sept. 13, 2025, at 4 p.m. in partnership with Cambridge Arts. Admission free--donations encouraged.

"We are joined by Palestinian peace cranes on their way to Washington," the theater says, "green frogs who teach the art of hopping over seemingly insurmountable problems, and gaggles of kindergarten butterflies who frolic to their hearts’ desire. Join us for a serious and silly circus."

This circus is a brand new show in the tradition of the iconic Bread & Puppet Circuses that began at Goddard College in Plainfield, Vermont, in 1970. As usual, the show will draw on traditional circus tropes and familiar #BreadAndPuppet iconography to draw attention to the urgent issues of the day. Stilt dancers, papier-maché beasts of all sizes and a riotous #brass band make a raucous, colorful spectacle of protest and celebration.

After the show Bread & Puppet will serve its famous sourdough rye #bread with aioli, and Bread & #Puppet’s “Cheap Art” – books, posters, postcards, pamphlets and banners from the Bread & Puppet Press – will be for sale.

Thursday the 23rd - #PomPoko at #WarehouseXI - Norwegian Art-rock ~$27, doors at 7
⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
"Pure Norwegian Punky Sweetness. A #punk attitude combined with a nerdy knowledge of pop history makes for an explosive package often compared to #LeTigre, #Deerhoof and #DuchessSays. Sweet sing-song vocals are mixed with intense grooves, bouncy guitars and crazy riffs, and make Pom Poko a feat to behold live. Reduce the testosterone, increase the sugar rush, and get ready for this K-PUNK explosion. "

#BostonWeekend 🧵 (13/x)

Buckle up for take 2!

Hey #Boston, #Cambridge, #Somerville #neurodivergent, #ADHD and those dealing with #ExecutiveDysfunction! I'm doing a thing next Sunday! Body Doubling and Support Group! Cambridge Public Library! 10:00 AM Sunday May 26th!

Having a hard time focusing? Burnt out? Or do you have all your shit together and want to help the rest of us figure ours out? Looking for that support group that doesn't exist because it would need folks with executive dysfunction to organize it? (Ha. Haha. Ha ha HAHAHAHA) Then come down to the Cambridge Public Library, this Sunday (05-19) at 1:00 PM and we'll meet in the front lawn and figure out what we all need and how we can support each other and build accountability. I don't want to scare folks off by giving prep-work, but please come with something to write or take notes with, physical or digital is fine, and 3-5 goals you would like to work on with the help of a group or a partner. To give you an idea of what I am talking about, here are mine:

1)Job hunt!

2)Learn HTML/CSS/website building!

3)Photo cataloguing!

4)Studying for career training!

5)Woodworking!

If this Sunday doesn't work for you, PLEASE let me know in the comments and we'll try to get a better time for session 3 that can include more folks (My #ServiceIndustry #FellowWorkers I'm looking at you).
