A proposal for the state flag of Massachusetts. In the upper left there's a photo of a rat eating garbage. Next to that, there's a donut with pink frosting and rainbow sprinkles. To the right of the donut, there's a low resolution picture of a Lisa Frank whale with rainbows and penguins. In the bottom left there's a photo of two turkeys, and in the bottom right there is a man who is angry and honking the horn of his car. Overlaying the images is the word "Massachusetts" in comic sans font.

Screenshot of an email. The text reads: "It's official, Boris & Horton is under new ownership and we’re brewing up something special for our grand reopening in the coming weeks! There’s a lot of work to do, but we’ll keep you in the loop as we go. For now, we’re pawsitively thrilled to be here, can’t wait to serve you, and welcome you back to the space soon! 🐶☕ A little about our plans: Same great space and brand: While you'll probably notice a few changes when you come back, overall we plan to keep the brand and general concept the same! Community: Bringing people and their pups together is at the core of what makes Boris & Horton special. We'll be looking for ways to honor the community that already exists and build more opportunities for connection! Who are we? I'm Carol, former Boris & Horton customer and mom to Baja (a cattle dog mix from Hearts & Bones, and, more importantly, our new CEO). I left my corporate job in 2023 planning to build my own dog business, but quickly pivoted when this opportunity came along. The OG dog cafe in NYC was too special to lose! Stay tuned to our socials for more, we'll have lots to share (including a planned reopen date) in the coming days and weeks!"
The first step of the sign-up flow for the Book It reading program, overseen by Pizza Hut. The screen asks the user what their role is, and the three options are "I'm a homeschool parent," "I'm enrolling my own classes," and "I'm a parent of a student in grades pre-K - 6."
A poem by Mary Oliver called "Don't Hesitate": If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don’t hesitate. Give in to it. There are plenty of lives and whole towns destroyed or about to be. We are not wise, and not very often kind. And much can never be redeemed. Still, life has some possibility left. Perhaps this is its way of fighting back, that sometimes something happens better than all the riches or power in the world. It could be anything, but very likely you notice it in the instant when love begins. Anyway, that’s often the case. Anyway, whatever it is, don’t be afraid of its plenty. Joy is not made to be a crumb.
