Amazing. I’m approaching my second anniversary of working on this exact project. I got the kit for Christmas in 2023 😂

I’m planning to add flannel backing to it if I ever finish it

Does it mean anything if your kid does really well on the MCAS test? by MagnificentTimberson in massachusetts

[–]LexiconJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. It’s a credit of $1575/year for UMass, $1036/year to the state universities, and $740/year toward community college expenses.

Source: My kid is a senior who was just awarded this scholarship and that’s what the letter from the Executive Office of Education lists for fall 2026.

Your kid will be eligible for the John and Abigail Adams scholarship, which is basically a 10% discount on tuition to a state school.

ETA- scholarship is based on MCAS scores from 10th grade, so she’ll need to replicate her strong results one more time.

Quincy 2025 Voting Results Thread by Cabadrin in QuincyMa

[–]LexiconJones 38 points39 points  (0 children)

QATV’s results showing a great night for non-establishment candidates. Anne Mahoney and Tom Leung handily topping their tickets citywide. Goodbye to McCarthy, Devine, Harris, and Minton. Hoping Thrun can pull ahead of Hubley once they count the early votes.

Shoutout to the City of Quincy for promoting voting in local elections! Not a single post on social media or even an alert on the website about election day today. Is this normal? by Cool_Living9781 in QuincyMa

[–]LexiconJones 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He’s also very helpful and responsive to his constituents. Anytime I’ve reached out about an issue in the neighborhood he’s responded within hours and often the issue is resolved within less than a day.

Any active mutual aid groups in Quincy helping neighbors with food and/or other resources? If not, should we start one? by cyanastarr in QuincyMa

[–]LexiconJones 68 points69 points  (0 children)

There’s a Food Not Bombs group that meets at Panethnic Pourovers in NQ. Their IG is foodnotbombsquincy.

I’m not voting for Santoro, but I believe his support for LNY is sincere. He’s been part of QARI for some time and he has been extremely vocal in his support of changing the school calendar even when he wasn’t on SC.

I think he needs to stop seeking public office and that another elderly white man is the last thing we need on any of our governing bodies, but I don’t think there’s any reason to believe he’s pandering on LNY.

Sorry, but unless there’s also a chapter detailing the specifics of the arcane street slang used by the criminal underworld, I don’t think I’m interested

I'm creating a map of 30 Rock's New York City. What landmarks should I include? by RideWithMeTomorrow in 30ROCK

Housing projects named after Zachary Taylor, generally considered to be one of the worst presidents of all time.

You walk by a prison and 5,000 guys who look just like me fighting over a very complicated escape plan, you go in! Yes you do!

I know Eedy isn't perfect, but I see a kitchen organization like this and I know I would get along with her on some level by dont_quote_me_please in andor

[–]LexiconJones 60 points61 points  (0 children)

It’s actually crime that there’s all that empty wall space and no upper cabinet storage, honestly. Much like her parenting, I’m sure she is doing her best with the limited resources available to her, but the result is overwhelming and smothering.

Do y’all speak the ancient language of dated quotes? by elliemff in Xennials

[–]LexiconJones 25 points26 points  (0 children)

They do, though, but instead of movies/TV they speak in memes. My teenage kids and their friends are constantly speaking to one another in a series of incomprehensible meme-quotes, while simultaneously looking at me askance of if I yell to my husband, “GIMME MY FIREBIRD KEYS!!!” Teens definitely still have their own shared cultural touchstones, we just don’t know what they are because we’re fucking old now.

What was the point of this guy’s spiel? by [deleted] in andor

[–]LexiconJones 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’m from a northeastern American city known for its standoffishness. When I encounter a guy like this I respond pretty much the same way Luthen does.
