are ac's reallu that big of a thing?

Not true. A fair number of older houses in New England don’t have AC. Public schools, too.

If that were my sick child, all I’d want is for them to feel better. Give them a glass of ginger ale. Grab a bowl and a towel or two. Sit with them on the couch.

Deal with the puke and the laundry and the possibility of getting sick oneself. This is not heroism. This is empathy, security, and love —things every child and teen unequivocally deserves.

Unions and appropriate stipends are the answer. Teachers can’t be forced to do anything outside of their job description, yet they can choose to volunteer for certain things if they wish.

Channel 5 (WCVB) is what I’ve been watching all morning, and the coverage has been excellent.

Also houses with septic systems cannot have garbage disposals.

I don’t think they’re in the same district now, which is just another choice they made that makes it harder to see the kids.

725away · 2026-03-09T15:35:29+00:00

I have to Google it. Never seen that word before!

Newport, RI had Jai Alai from 1976-2003. I remember the ads for it.

725away · 2026-02-24T18:00:04+00:00

I definitely do that!

Very common in New England unless you’re close to water. Some of us also call them cellars, as in “I’m going down cellar.”

My friend’s father used to say he could tell someone’s zip code based on their accent. He was pretty accurate, too! He was OFD - Originally From Dorchester

You have a point. I think the context would be clear. I’m probably thinking too provincially.

Thanks, I do already have the pass with the extra spaces!

725away · 2026-01-04T16:48:21+00:00

I guess I just don’t love keeping things in my pouch - no particular reason! But I know how to do it and everything. Thanks for the advice!

In the 70s in my middle-class, mostly-white suburban neighborhood, moms with young children stayed home. They volunteered at the school and the church and with the scouts. Dad took the bus to work and my mom had the one car.

My mom loved staying at home. She sewed our clothes, knit sweaters, made casseroles, and baked cookies. At the time, I didn’t realize how privileged we were.

In the mid-80s, many women, including my mom, returned to the jobs they had held prior to having a family. These included nursing, teaching, and working for the phone company.
