  1. #Mainers drove #Polhaus out of the state, so now he's taken up shop in NH...

    With #NeoNazi rally in #ConcordNH, #extremism and #hate are on the rise in #NewHampshire

    The demonstration in Concord was the group’s largest in almost a year. They’ve also rallied elsewhere, in places like Florida and Ohio.

    Excerpt: "#ChristopherPohlhaus, the tattoo artist and ex-Marine who founded Blood Tribe several years ago, first appeared on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s radar during the fall of 2021.

    The following year, Pohlhaus worked to build a #BloodTribe basecamp near the rural town of #SpringfieldME. He has since sold the land and moved away."

  5. #VisuallyImpaired #voters sue #NewHampshire over changes to #Absentee #BallotAccess

    The plaintiffs say the new law will deter some voters with #disabilities from participating in the democratic process at all, even after they have registered to vote

    By Steven Porter Globe Staff, Updated August 21, 2025, 9:30 a.m.

    "Three people with visual impairments are suing New Hampshire officials to challenge the constitutionality of a law that will soon tighten #PhotoID requirements for voters seeking an #AbsenteeBallot.

    "The plaintiffs — Adele Robertson of #ExeterNH, Daniel Frye of #ConcordNH, and Regina Wilson of #BrentwoodNH — allege the new law, known as #SenateBill287, will impose a significant burden on every #AbsenteeVoter statewide.

    " 'And, in some cases, these burdens will entirely prevent voters from exercising their #RightToVote,' their lawsuit states.
    Under the new rules imposed by #SB287, voters will be required to either bring a photo ID to their local election officials to request an absentee ballot in person, or submit a copy of their ID or a notarized signature along with their application.
    While proponents said the legislation will better protect election integrity, critics said the changes will add barriers that disproportionately impact #seniors, voters with #disabilities, and those living in #rural parts of the state."

  6. #NeoNazi demonstration outside #NewHampshire State House turns violent

    by WGME Staff
    Tue, August 5th 2025

    CONCORD, New Hampshire (WGME) -- "Police are looking into a fight that involved a group of masked neo-Nazis outside the New Hampshire State House in #ConcordNH over the weekend.

    "The incident was captured on video during a demonstration that turned violent on Saturday.

    "The woman who filmed it says she was enjoying drinks with her friends at a rooftop bar when she heard a lot of screaming.

    " 'Directly under us, giant black flag with a white swastika on it and about 20 or so completely masked and wearing red,' Aislinn Kaloe said.

    "She started recording as the scuffle broke out between the demonstrators and a bystander who wanted them to leave.

    "She says the man involved suffered cuts to his face and was treated by first responders.

    "In a statement, [Republican] New Hampshire Governor #KellyAyotte says there is no place for #HateGroups or their 'repugnant and disgusting ideology' in New Hampshire."

  7. Last year at this time. Curious to see if #MountWashingtonObservatory breaks more heat records next week...

    From 2024: The First #SevereHeat of the Year Sweeps Across the #Midwest and #Northeast

    By Alexis George
    Updated June 22, 2024

    "New Englanders dragged fans and air conditioners out of their closets earlier this week as the first heat wave of the year gripped the Northeast. The hot and humid weather that arrived on Tuesday, June 18th, prompted officials to declare heat alerts as temperatures skyrocketed into the 90s across many locations. And the humidity only made it feel hotter, which caused the heat index to soar over 100 degrees in parts of the Northeast on Tuesday afternoon.

    "We saw little relief from the hot temperatures on Wednesday as the heat wave continued. Temperatures across New England soared into the mid and upper 90s, with parts of the region posting higher temperatures than South Florida on Wednesday. #BostonMA set a record-high temperature of 98 degrees on Wednesday, which broke the previous record of 96 degrees. A new daily record high of 70 degrees was recorded at #MountWashingtonObservatory on Wednesday, which broke the previous record of 67 degrees that was originally recorded in 1995. The new record high temperature recorded at #MountWashington on Wednesday also fell a few degrees short of the highest temperature ever recorded in June and the all-time station high of 72 degrees. Here are some other records that were set on Wednesday:

    - Millinocket, Maine, hit 97 degrees, a calendar-day record.
    - Caribou, Maine, hit 96 degrees, matching its all-time high temperature. It also posted a heat index of 103, the highest on record.
    - Bangor and Houlton in Maine tied calendar-day records of 95 degrees.
    - Reading, Pennsylvania, tied a calendar-day record of 95 degrees.
    - Syracuse, New York, tied a calendar-day record of 95 degrees.
    - Poughkeepsie, New York, hit 94 degrees, a calendar-day record.
    - Cleveland tied a calendar-day record of 92 degrees.
    - Buffalo tied a calendar-day record of 90 degrees.
    - Elkins, West Virginia, hit 90 degrees, a calendar-day record.
    - DuBois, Pennsylvania, hit 80 degrees, a calendar-day record.

    "The heat would not relent on Thursday, June 20th, as heat advisories and excessive heat watches remained in effect for parts of the Northeast. Temperatures were forecast to reach a scorching 99 degrees in #ConcordNH, and 95 degrees in Boston on Thursday. The excessive heat also caused some trains in the Northeast to operate at lower speeds on Thursday, as rail temperatures exceeded 135 degrees!

    "Another daily record high temperature was recorded atop Mount Washington on June 20th, with the new daily record of 65 degrees breaking the previous record of 64 degrees, which was set in 2016 and equaled in 2020."

    [...]

    "The stubborn heat wave finally died down some by Friday, June 21st, as cooler air arrived behind the passing cold front. While this historic heat wave definitely made headlines in the Midwest and Northeast, on the flip side, a colder weather pattern dumped up to a foot of snow at some higher elevations in Montana and Idaho earlier this week, just days away from the summer solstice!"

  8. So, the line is almost around the streetcorner for tonight's event with Jodi Picoult at the Capitol Center for the Arts... I keep thinking she'd make a great political candidate, as an author whose books have been GOP targets for banning, but unfortunately whenever I'd ask her on the previous site, I could never get her interested...

  9. Why is it when I'm just about to wind down for bed, the Earth decides, "Hey, why don't we send you a little bitty 2.7 earthquake for Christmas so you don't sleep on the day before you're supposed to travel because you're gonna be so wound up reading up about how earthquakes are measured because it's going to be your new special interest for the next 24 hours.... As a treat!" and now I can't sleep because I'm too busy reading about earthquakes.

  10. Concord Area Transit (my local public transportation) appears to have gone fare-free while I wasn't paying attention; bus driver isn't making any of us pay... so that's cool! #ConcordNH

  11. I'm not really sure how many New Hampshire arts people I'm connected via the Fediverse, but I recently found out that there's going to be an arts and crafts centric thrift store moving into where the old CVS used to be in downtown Concord, and I'm absolutely obsessed with this idea and feels like there should be more of this everywhere.

    They're taking donations and should be open by the end of the month according to their Facebook page.

  15. A series of active shooter hoaxes appears to be going around New Hampshire schools today; this has included one at a nearby #ConcordNH Catholic school. I hope that we can get to the bottom of whoever was behind this; it has caused a great deal of panic that needs to be accounted for.
