Nothing to see here. Cold pizza is appropriate for breakfast.

Oh, Alanna Rizzo is doing the broadcast for NESN tonight. Guess I’ll watch something else and track the game through my phone.

ALERT: A herd of 100 life-size elephants have arrived in Boston overnight. The stunning sculptures will line Commonwealth Ave Mall as part of a FREE mile-long outdoor art exhibit now through September 13. 🤎

THIS is why voting matters. Texas is making moves that will 1. Disenfranchise Black Texans 2. Form a framework for similar red states to follow 3. Affect the number of seats in Congress and make a dem majority even harder. Make sure to get out and VOTE this November.

The NAACP has released a statement while the Tarrant County Commissioners Court considers a proposal today that would cut the number of Election Day polling locations nearly in half "Let's call this what it is… voter suppression"

Tarrant County, Texas, could see around 50 percent fewer polling locations in November's election.

"Let's call this what it is… voter suppression," said NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson. "Cutting nearly half the places where people can cast a ballot doesn't save democracy money, it costs voters their voice. Tarrant County is home to a significant number of Black and Latino voters and is a majority people-of-color county. There is no question that this plan strips away polling access on a scale that will hit Black and Brown voters hardest. That is not a coincidence. It’s an intentional assault on our ability to make our voices heard and we will push back with every tool available.”
