Dedicated to the advancement of progressive, blue-state values in Massachusetts and around the country. We hope that this website will serve as a forum for discussion and debate on politics and policy in Massachusetts and elsewhere, and as a way of mobilizing support for progressive policies and candidates.

Boston Steamer
Two recent transplants to the Boston area and their (often beer-fueled) exploits in learning the ins and outs of New England life.
Graduated Learning
I'm a a Boston-area 20-something who recently graduated from MIT. I'm now trying to learn how to be a grownup, and blogging about it in the process. My blog discusses personal finance, food, travel, and whatever else I get involved in.
MusicBoxPete
Each Tuesday, I bring to you my Artist Spotlight feature where I highlight an up and coming artist and give a little background info on what makes them so special! Each Wednesday, I will be posting a review of an album that has been released recently and I'll offer up my take of it. I'll also report to you breaking music related news as it happens, you'll find it all here on the Music Box Pete blog!
See Shawn Run
On November 11, 2010 I was accepted as a member of Team Eye and Ear for the Boston Marathon. On April 19, 2011 I will run my first marathon and my blog will track my training and fundraising progress.
Self Defense & Self Protection Blog

Some Assembly Required
Consumer culture, public transit, media/TV, life in Boston. Some Assembly Required is located just north of Boston, on the first floor of a nice two-family a mere minute's walk from the bus stop (the vagaries of public transit will be a recurring topic of his blog entries). He has one spouse, zero kids (and holding), and one dog, a retired racing Greyhound with several neuroses.
