Ok but seriously, check this shit out. Rep your town and your favorite sandwich topping at the same time WHILE ALSO BEING HI-VIZ and carrying a ton of stuff. I have six of the Marshmallow Fluff bags and three of the Somerville bags; I'll have more at Fluff Festival in September but you can beat the rush :)

RE: https://toot.boston/@swachter/116875017689679255
Hey if you’re looking for stuff to do on this coming #BostonWeekend, swing by my backyard and check out some rad bags. I just finished up a big stack of fannypacks/crossbody bags AND Fluff-themed retro-reflective totes. Get your first crack at them ahead of #FluffFestival on September 19.
I’m also hosting a bunch of my #pottery friends AND my buddy who does #infraredPhotography, so there’s gonna be a whole bunch of cool art even if you’re not in the market for a new bag.
We’re on Hudson St behind the Armory, come say hi!

#Massachusetts - #SomervilleMA Overnight Center Opening For Winter Season
The location serves as a shelter for local adults dealing with homelessness.
by Benjamin Pierce, Wed, Dec 3, 2025
SOMERVILLE, MA — "The city’s Emergency Overnight Warming Center is opening next week for the winter season, the office of Mayor Katjana Ballantyne announced.
"The facility located on the second floor of the former #CummingsSchool at 42 Prescott St. is slated to open on Monday, Dec. 8 and remain open until April 12 of 2026. It will be open seven days a week from 5 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. Malden-based nonprofit Housing Families was credited for helping the center expand to bed 45 people on a nightly basis for this year. In addition to sleeping quarters, adults facing homelessness will be given hot meals, housing navigation, and case management services.
"The center is accepting donations of nonperishable food and hygiene products."

Growing library garden programs
WebJunction / 01 May 2024
"Library gardens offer a great way for community members to come together to learn, grow, and contribute towards a healthy, balanced environment. And creating a vibrant community green space or gardening program doesn’t have to be complicated. Across the country—and beyond—libraries are growing gardening programs in their own unique ways. As you explore some of the gardens and programs here, you’ll notice that community partnerships represent a common thread running throughout all of the programs. Local businesses, master gardening groups, arts organizations, and community government can all play important roles in growing a successful library garden program."

oh a new years day morning note from my current health care (#UnitedHealthCare owned #Optum branded #AtriusHealth, the former #HarvardVanguard) provider, requiring me to log in to their health care portal.
Will it be
A nice note about the new year and making healthy choices?A thank you for continuing to use their services after 20 years?
A gentle nudge to pay a bill?
No:
"We wish to inform you about an important change regarding parking at our Somerville practice.
Effective January 1, 2025, parking garage fees on weekdays only will be reinstated at the following rates" -

Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate Fluff Festival yesterday! I got to meet @mjk and others despite the...let's call it "damp" weather (ok it was pouring sideways for some bits). I love this weird little piece of Somerville culture and it was super cool to get to participate as a vendor for the first time.
Many thanks also to the artists, food & drink vendors, performers, and musicians who made the day special, and of course to the organizers, sponsors, and volunteers who make the whole thing happen. You are truly the magic behind the scenes.
Also mad thanks to my husband, @knizer, for putting up with my bonkers ideas. Another fine mess I've gotten us into, my dear.
If you weren’t able to make it out, most of my Fluff 2024 collection is posted on my website (link in bio). (I’ll be uploading the smaller items like zippered pouches and headbands in the coming days; thank you for your patience.). Or if marshmallows aren’t your thing, take a look at some of my other listings celebrating ttrpgs, science, books & libraries, and more.

Keep on Fluffin, my friends.

Ok it’s a wee bit damp (….ok maybe it’s a lot damp) and fall-like but we are doing the fluff thing TODAY, union square, 2-6p. Loads of bags of all sizes for sale, much cute, come check things out.

#BostonWeekend 20th-22nd September 2024: a Thread (1/x)
#massachusetts - with a slight chill in the air, its starting to feel like Autumn. #WhatTheFluff is this weekend in #SomervilleMA, our annual #FluffFestival - thus, a #MarshmallowTest poll: you’re in a room with nothing to do. You’re presented with a marshmallow. You’re told you can eat it now, or wait patiently for a few minutes to get a second marshmallow, and eat both.

Id0l Jam is happening in September in Somerville! :mexcitedmiku:
After there was some issue with the venue for the summer, Metam0re is now hosting Autumn Id0l Jam on September 29 at Arts at the Armory in Somerville. A day of Idol Showcases, singing, cosplay, and other idol and anime related stuff. (And now conveniently located in my city, no more needing to take the commuter rail :TamakoLaugh: .)
More info, and applications for performances and for vending space (I think they're especially looking for more artists to vend, anyone who's got some nerdy stuff to sell): https://autumnid0ljam.carrd.co/
