#Boston peeps: I am currently trying to figure out if we can get together enough #CovidCautious people who want to see "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" to make it affordable (about the same per person as tickets) to rent a theater at West Newton Cinema for a private masked showing. If you are interested please message me with how many people. Thanks! @universalhub can you boost for me? #COVID#CovidConscious#SpiderMan
Living in the East Coast?
Love live music and supporting artists?
I may be able to perform a live set with my piano at your event. It would be a 45 minutes set combining of all of my songs on #Bandcamp and many yet to be released. You can invite your friends and family, I'm also down to help out with making vegan foods and make a day of it. I'll be flying to Boston often and often be in Maine as well. Contact me if interested😊

As I move instances today, I figure it's time for another #Introduction. I am the only Orthodox #Jewish#transgender#film critic that I know of. That said, I do cover #TV to some extent. I am a member of various awards-voting critics groups.
In addition to my love of #movies, I am also a #baseball fan and write about baseball at Dugout Dirt (which will remain on #Substack until my #Buttondown newsletter brings in enough paid subscription revenue to justify a move). The #StLCards are my favorite baseball team and when it comes to college #sports, it's all about the #KentuckyWildcats aka #BBN. I root for the #Boston#Celtics when it comes to the #NBA even as many ex-Cats are playing throughout the league.
Another thing: I am very vocal when it comes to speaking out against #antisemitism no matter where it comes from.

Hi #Boston, there was a shop that sold adaptive/inclusive design stuff - pens and cutlery that are easier for people to use if they have tremors, etc.
It was near TD Garden, on one of the little streets running NW-SE.
This was maybe 12 years ago.
Is it still there? Where? What's the name? Any other suggestions about browsing/buying #AdaptiveDesign stuff for consumers?
