  1. @bob

    My mom's BFF. He came back from Vietnam and rejected his family's fortune to live in the woods. One of my teachers growing up.

    "Many people around Haverhill knew him as Dennis “The Can Man.” Fewer knew him by his real name, Dennis Babbitt. The tall, lanky man who was often spotted around town on his bicycle died Jan. 3. 2024 at Holy Family Hospital in Methuen. He was 81.

    "Dennis was an interesting person with a scruffy exterior. According to his obituary published by the Kevin B. Comeau Funeral Home, he was a friend of local painter Mimi Johnson, he was a history buff, politically savvy, and he was very intelligent. Dennis was a well known institution in Haverhill, always out and about on one of his many bicycles. He was known to be kind, respectful and made a big impact on the lives of the people he met."

  6. Well, of course they did.

    > A study found that when a person dressed as Batman was present in a subway car, passengers were significantly more likely to offer their seats to a pregnant woman (67% compared to 37% without Batman), with 44% of helpful passengers not even consciously noticing Batman's presence. The research suggests unexpected events can promote prosocial behavior by interrupting people's mental autopilot.

  11. I am someone who rarely drinks anymore. But when I do, the very first thing that starts to show up for me is a feeling of love and appreciation for all kinds of humans. It's a great thing to experience — appreciation, awe, admiration. An absolutely delightful state.

    Have to say, Mastodon is such an amazing place — scrolling through posts right now brings me great delight. You folks are so amazing. Social networking done all kinds of right.

  16. So, one of my favorite teachers, #BernieReim, was in a terrible car accident. He is on #Medicare, and, well, he has a long way to go to recover, and Medicare isn't going to cover a lot of the costs.

    As an instructor, Bernie let me do all my team exercises solo (I didn't want the jocks I had been paired with to bring my grade down, and didn't want to do all the work for them), listened to my sharing about the math involved in astrology (which is how I learned to hand-calculate logarithms), and also let me submit a painting of a galaxy as a final project! In addition to teaching #Astronomy, Bernie is a regular on WMPG, and also volunteers at the local observatory.

    Please share and donate if you can. Bernie is a good human, and only has his friends and community for support!
