#Massachusetts: Find a local #FoodBank

Need food? A local food bank can help you put food on your table so you don't go hungry.

Notice: President #Trump is currently choosing not to issue November #SNAP benefits that help you and many families put food on the table.

You also may have your benefits cut starting in November because of changes Congressional Republicans and President Trump enacted in the '#OneBigBeautifulBill.' Learn more and check back for updates at mass.gov/

This could go BOOM. The CEO of Market Basket has been fired by the company board, a.k.a. his sisters. This also happened 11 years ago.

I was there when the Columbia gas explosions that rocked the #merrimackvalley .
there was a tent city set up by #columbiagas behind the Lawrence train station
I let one of the Columbia workers sleep over my house because they were housed on a giant boat in the bay of Boston
What really happened that led to the explosions that led to a 53 million $ settlement
This was such dismay and destruction that largest criminal fine ever imposed for violation of the pipeline safety act ~M.P

How Massachusetts inspired some of #HPLovecraft's scary stories

"HPL, considered by many the father of modern #horror fiction, is also very much a local legend. While the Rhode Island native famously said, 'I am Providence,' Massachusetts also played a big part in his life and work. Of course, our state is home to the fictional #MiskatonicRiver and the town of #Arkham, which was appropriated by DC Comics as home of the asylum that housed the Joker, reaching a whole new level in popular culture. And that is really only scratching the surface of the surface.

"Historian, writer & horror enthusiast #DavidGoudsward joined GBH’s All Things Considered — just in time for #SpookySeason — to take a deep dive in his book, 'H.P. Lovecraft in the #MerrimackValley.' What follows is a lightly edited transcript of their conversation."
