#Massachusetts Guide

2/28/25.

Taxidermists are a Massachusetts based duo that met back in 2007 through MySpace. Since then, they've become music lifers, making music together and with other bands. One of Taxidermists releases was via the esteemed Feeding Tube Records. Recently, they have released their music through Danger Collective Records. This Los Angeles label has been featured many times throughout the years. Going back through the blog, I saw their amazing compilation "Save The Smell".

As a guitar drum duo, Taxidermists bring to mind other similarly constituted bands, Buick, Japandroids or No Age. But this is decidedly lo-fi and the songs take unexpected melodic turns. Musically, they're kind of hard to pin down, but the length and poppiness of some songs recall Guided By Voices. Sometimes, the voice and music remind me of The Who.

Hello!

Welcome to the Phantom Apothecary! A place for all things Salem, MA! As a local for 20+ years, I've learned a thing or two about this area, and I want to share it with everyone!

Here's a bit about me, Phantom👻!

I'm a student in journalism and marketing, as writing is one of my passions. While studying, I'll use this as a resume builder to showcase what I learn, how I write about things, etc.

I've lived in and around Salem throughout my entire (albeit not that long) life.

I've worked the "spooky season" for 7+ years, most of which was in a haunted house.

I'm a queer person, so Salem Pride was one of the first places I felt at home.

I have a serious caffeine problem.

So what's this all about?

I'm incredibly nosy and opinionated. I have a lot of thoughts and rather than info-dumping constantly I figured I'd start a blog to document said opinions. While not EVERYTHING will be specific to Salem, I aim to keep things to the North Shore area, as that is what I'm familiar with.

I might also sprinkle in some other reviews as well- depending on how often I get out. While I have already been to many places in Salem (and the North Shore), I'd like to keep things current!

I hope to post at least once a week, maybe twice depending on how ~spicy~ I'm feeling.

If you have questions I am always happy to answer!

Oh it's that fucking thing! It used to be one of my talking points when I gave tours at the State House. Its fishy counterpart is a brass casting in State Senate's chandelier, sometimes called the Holy Mackerel.

Every day I learn something baffling about Massachusetts

New Massachusetts ADU Law 2025: What You Need to Know

What is an accessory dwelling unit (ADU): An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) can be anything from a finished basement containing a kitchenette, living room, a bedroom as an attached structure to current home or a separate, smaller dwelling unit on the primary home’s property. Under the old law, these spaces could not be rented out and could only be used for family members and you had to go before…

So excited that I had to share!

So yesterday I was interviewed in Spanish by Bessy and then was shared to the New Bedford Guide here in New England. She asked about my life and how I got to the point of my career path now. Growing up in a life full of poverty has definitely been a big part of my drive and passion in providing support to others as my life’s journey.

As a Child I was passionately involved in the Catholic religion and at the time, chose to go down the path of priesthood by serving in The Guardian Angel Church that is right in the heart of the Pacoima Projects, in the San Fernando Valley, where I lived at that time.

As I left religion but kept myself connected to it, I wondered where my faith would lead me. I thought maybe god had other plans for me. Never thought in a million years that it would manifest into a career of a spiritual life and owning my own spiritual shop.

I feel so blessed with how far we have come, and everyone we’ve been able to help along the way. I am so thrilled and excited for what lies ahead.

Muchas gracias a Bessy Rivas por tenerme en su show. Tuvimos un bien tiempo en la tienda. Gracias por venir a visitarnos aquí en el The Cat and Raven

Thank you very much Bessy for visiting us here at The Cat And Raven today and having me on your show. I had a blast!

[duck-plus-horse]

Derby Square, my beloved. Though we met but once when I was barely a young man, the three books I purchased that day remain in my personal library.

Boston is such a beautiful city with so much to see and do!

My daughter Rebecca lived there for seven years and we loved getting to know Boston while she was there! From the Boston Harbor to beautiful museums to fabulous food, there is something for everyone! I asked Rebecca to put together a city guide for Boston since she knows the city so much better than I do and this is the ultimate guide for anyone who loves to travel in style! I hope you enjoy this guide and that it makes planning your next trip to Boston easier!

Stay 

Fairmont Copley Plaza - The Fairmont is one of the most iconic hotels in Boston. First opening in 1912, the Fairmont has old-school elegance and charm but has kept the guest rooms updated with traditional elegant furnishings and art that adds a modern touch. They have a lovely lobby bar - the OAK Long Bar + Kitchen with great cocktails and delicious food including homemade pizza. The interior of the hotel is gorgeous and grand and the lobby is always buzzing with guests and events being hosted in the beautiful event spaces.

If you book a stay at the Fairmont, be sure to ask for a room overlooking Copley Square and enjoy one of the incredible breakfast options on the extensive room service menu while taking in beautiful city views.

The Newbury - Situated on the picturesque corner of Newbury and Arlington streets, the Newbury Boston is a newer hotel in the City.  The historic building was originally the first-ever Ritz Carlton Hotel, opening in 1927 which later became the Taj Boston before the building was purchased and renovated between  2019-2021. The property has 286 rooms including 90 suites, some with wood-burning fireplaces and sweeping views of the downtown skyline across the Boston Common. All rooms are spacious and the suites offer impressive views, massive marble bathrooms with double sinks, and separate shower and tub.

This stylish boutique hotel has a beautiful rooftop restaurant on the 17th floor, Contessa. The food is excellent but the spot has become quite popular and books up weeks in advance so be sure to make a reservation! They also have a wonderful lobby bar -Street Bar where you can grab a cocktail before a night on the town!

The Langham Boston - In the heart of Boston’s Financial District, the Langham Boston offers style and comfort in this luxury hotel. The building was once Boston’s U.S. Federal Reserve Bank, originally built in 1922. Langham took over the building in the 1980s after the Federal Reserve moved down the street and the hotel operated for many years before closing for a two-year renovation in 2019. The hotel now offers even more beautiful rooms with rare comforts like velvety soft robes, cozy beds, and an impressive minibar stocked with local beers, craft ciders, and French wines.

The Langham has a beautiful cocktail bar and a delicious Italian restaurant in the former bank’s grand hall.  The restaurant - Grana is a grandiose atrium adorned with French chandeliers, and original stone floors, and such a fun spot for breakfast, weekend brunch, 0r lunch.

The Charles Hotel - If you are looking for a place to stay in Cambridge, look no further than The Charles Hotel.  A long-standing favorite for academics, politicians, artists, and celebrities, the Charles Hotel is a true taste of New England. With handmade quilts hanging in common spaces, wainscoting, plaid carpeting, and wood paneling, your stay is sure to be cozy and comfortable. They offer 24-hour room service, (I recommend the pie of the day), and have an award-winning restaurant as well as a renowned jazz club, Regattabar, that hosts some of the top jazz musicians from around the world. The library is stocked with biographies that pay tribute to famous past guests including Barbra Streisand, Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton, Ben Affleck, and even the Dalai Lama.  With the charm of Harvard Square, amazing restaurants nearby and the beautiful Harvard Campus just steps away, The Charles Hotel is a wonderful place to stay!

The Liberty - The Liberty is a beautiful and unique hotel within walking distance of the charming streets of Beacon Hill, the Public Gardens and Newbury Street but it has a very interesting history. The building was originally built as a jail in the mid-1800s and for nearly 140 years housed some of Boston's most notorious criminals. On Memorial Day weekend, 1990, the last prisoners were moved after revolting due to poor living conditions. After years of design work and remodeling while maintaining the architectural integrity and history of the building, The Liberty Boutique Hotel was opened in 2007 and became an overnight sensation.

Today, the former jail is a beautiful example of old meets new. The design is contemporary American with a gentle nod to the building's history with comfortable rooms complete with a mini-bar stocked with Veuve Clicquot and sweeping views of the Charles River. The hotel has a great open bar on the second floor and three restaurants, Alibi, Clink, and Scampo. With so much to do and see near by, this is a great place to stay if you are looking for a unique, yet luxurious experience.

Eat 

O Ya - This sophisticated Japanese and sushi spot is one of the best restaurants in the city. Nestled into a quiet street outside of Chinatown, O Ya offers the freshest and most authentic sushi and Japanese cuisine found in Boston. Local food critic Jolyon Helterman has described the food as having a similar effect as viewing art by Rothko as “sublime” and if that does not convince you this is a great spot, it is Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds favorite restaurant in the city.

While the food and atmosphere are excellent, O Ya doesn't come cheap, as the signature 20-course omakase will run you $295. However, if you enjoy authentic sushi, a beautiful space, and exceptional service, O Ya is well worth the cost!

Contessa - This high-end Italian spot located in the Newbury Hotel has become Boston's new hot spot!  Owned and operated by Major Food Group, the same company behind NYC's acclaimed Carbone, Contessa is just as delicious, beautiful, and equally as hard to score a coveted table so be sure to book in advance! With panoramic views of the Boston skyline, oversized pink fringed lamp shades, and touches of brass, emerald, and velvety rose furniture, Contessa is an Instagram-worthy dining experience! Not only is a beautiful, the food is delicious! Be sure to try the spicy lobster capellini and truffle pizza! They also have a wonderful brunch.

Neptune Oyster - When in New England you have to have oysters or a lobster roll at least once during your visit and Neptune Oyster is the perfect spot! Located on Salem Street in the charming Italian district known as the North End, this well-known spot will often have a line down the street in the warmer months as Neptune take walk is walk-ins-only and is very small. The tiny interior has a nautical vibe with shiny subway tile, marble tabletops, and tin ceilings. They have wonderful seafood but are known for the oysters and be sure the at least try the lobster roll, hot with butter or cold lobster salad, Both are delicious and possibly the best in town! Pair with some salty fries and a glass of rose and have the perfect summer meal!

Coppa - Nestled into the brick row home-lined streets of the South End, is Coppa, a delicious and hip bistro offering in-house cured meats, homemade pastas, and delicious small plates.  The interior is cozy and warm with tightly packed tables filled with quests enjoying carefully rafter cocktails and glasses of natural wine. In the warmer months, you can dine alfresco on their charming front patio and enjoy delicious dishes from their menu that change with the seasons.

Oleana - If you are planning on spending an evening in Cambridge, Oleana is the best spot for a delicious Mediterranean and Middle Eastern meal. It’s a great place to take a crowd because they have small plates and you will want to try everything but also great for an intimate meal for two.  The vibe is warm, relaxed, and elegant and the menu is unmatched. If you visit in the warmer months, try to grab a seat on the back patio. It’s a beautiful space filled with flowers and string lights that feels like an escape from the city.

Alden & Harlow - Another great Cambridge restaurant, just a few short blocks from the Charles Hotel,  Alden and Harlow is a cozy and cool restaurant under Longfellow Bar. They offer unique spins on somewhat classic dishes like kale salad, steak tartar, and pastas, and if you go early you can get the secret burger which they only have limited quantities of each night but it absolutely delicious! They also have a wonderful bar with fantastic cocktails and a great wine list, a great place for a drink or meal in Harvard Square.

Myers + Chang - Owned by local chef Joanne Chang, who opened Flour Bakery in Boston, she and her husband Christopher Myers opened Myers and Chang in 2007. The restaurant serves the specialties of China, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam cuisine in a sleek and comfortable environment. Delectable noodle dishes, tuna poke, bao of all kinds, and the famous Mama Chang's pork and chive dumplings are just a few of the many menu items that are best enjoyed shared!

Sportello - Located in the Seaport district, Barbara Lynch's Sportello is a modern yet homey Italian spot serving delicious food in a fun diner-style setting. Stools line a U-shaped counter that faces the kitchen with tables in the surrounding space. The food is a unique array of Italian flavors with dishes like spicy tomato soup, braised rabbit strozzapreti, and Spanish octopus. The environment is fun, everything is delicious and this is an excellent place for a meal in the Seaport!

Experience 

Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum - Once a grand and beautiful personal residence, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum displays the vast art collection of its eccentric founder, Isabelle Steward Gardner, who traveled the world, and had an eye for the finer luxuries in art and of ancient cultures. Set within a Venetian-style palazzo, surrounding a gorgeous courtyard, not only is the architecture impressive, but the residence houses masterpieces by Botticelli, Raphael, Titian, and John Singer Sargent. Stewart Gardner herself meticulously arranged the collection of more than 7,500 fine and decorative art objects, 2,700 books and manuscripts, and over 8,000 historic artifacts from around the world. The collection includes sculptures, furniture, textiles, metalworks, and ceramics, that she collected during her lifetime. The museum also hosts intimate concerts and talks in the courtyard for contemporary artists, musicians and scholars. This is a fabulous museum to visit in Boston.

Public Garden - When the weather is nice, the Public Garden is one of the best places to visit in the city!  Grab a coffee and stroll through the beautiful landscaping, visit the lagoon that snakes almost the entire length of the garden and is where the famed Swan Boats have been peddled for over a century.

The Freedom Trail - If you are looking to take in some of the rich American history in Boston, The Freedom Trail is a great attraction.

The trail is about 2.5 miles long and winds its way through the city. You’ll see revolutionary sites in a modern setting as you walk alongside commuters and other tourists. If you are just looking to take in a few key sites, prioritize the North End section of the trail, home to landmarks like the Paul Revere House, Old North Church, and Copp’s Hill Burial Ground, in a historic neighborhood that’s known as Boston’s Little Italy.

A guiding voice.

Summary : steve guides Bucky on eating your pussy out.

Pairing : nomad husband steve x wife reader . Bucky x reader.

Warning : oral, fingering, lots of dirty talk, filthy talk. Husband steve , post civil war bucky. Sub Bucky, Dom steve . Degradation.18+ minors DNI. This is so filthy, but then I'm 100% sure this is how nomad steve will be.

Steve and you had always been givers when it came to Bucky, he deserved it after everything he'd been through and it calmed him down, having his cock sucked like a lollipop.

You and steve both loved giving him the pleasure, that's how you slowly brought him out of his shell since the accords happened. You steve and bucky , lived in a secluded cottage in Massachusetts, where it was safe and no one could find you, steve would leave for his little missions sometimes when natasha called ,other than that it was just the three of you.

You both took care of Bucky, you knew he was fragile, a little grumpy but still very fragile. Bucky was finally becoming his old charming self, he even asked you to let him eat your pussy, he was quite eager, he needed a little help of course cuz he hasn't done it in a long fucking time.

So you and steve agreed , and thats how you ended up like this, with your legs spread apart by the blonde super soldier's arms, your back against his chest, Bucky was kneeling in front of you waiting for Steve's words. "Go ahead baby boy, lick our pretty girl's pussy."

And bucky did, he was eager giving you messy licks like he would eat his ice cream, you moaned in pleasure.

"give her long licks from the bottom bucky that's what gets her going." Bucky did as steve said, licking ling stripes from your hole . He continued his actions, before steve told him to stop.

He moved you around in his arms a little , before licking pushing his two fingers in your mouth, you liked it coating it with your saliva. "Good girl" the blonde soldier praised you.

"see now is the important part buck" he pressed his fingers to your entrance, Bucky watched closely, "you gotta prep her with your fingers too" he teased your hole with his index finger, before pushing it in, making you moan in pleasure.

"spit on it puppy" steve told Bucky, Bucky looked at him hesitantly. "She likes it babyboy trust me, that pussy likes to be covered in spit, makes her even wetter" . Bucky gathered the saliva in his mouth and spit it on your pussy, steve praised him making him blush. "Good boy, now you can spit in her mouth too, but i assume you already know that , she's a dirty slut, you can use her however you want." Steve saying those things about you turned you on so much, you wanted nothing more than to ride tour husband at this moment, taking his big cock in your bare pussy, but you knew this was meant for bucky, so you remained stoic, except for the moans you left out.

"hear those sounds, you gotta follow em, it'll let you find her sweet spot, just like daddy does when he fingers that ass of yours, our girl had a sweet spot in her pussy too , you'd have stimulated it when you fucked her, but that was probably because your cock is too big for her tiny pussy, but when you eat her out it's very important to find it." Bucky nodded as if taking mental notes of the points steve said, he wanted to please you so badly, make you feel as food as steve, he'd seen steve eat you out so many times, and he wanted to try it..

Steve pulled hsu fingers out of your dripping hole with a pop.

"now put your tongue in her, swirl it around,push it in deeper" bucky put his hot tongue in your hole, doing just as steve instructed him, and og not it felt good . You couldn't control your screams.

"go as deep as you can bucky , she loves it .....see how she's wiggling in my arms. Good now fuck her with it, push your tongues in and out , like you do with your cock when you fuck her, just like that . Good puppy you're a fast learner " the praises form steve along with your noises made Bucky more eager to please you.

"hnm feels so good bucky uhh" you barely go your words out before you came all over the brunette's face.

Steve seemed disappointed, "tsk tsk, no buck that's not how you do it, you can't let her come so easily" Bucky looked at him with those puppy eyes, he knew he disappointed his captain and he was sad.

"sorry captain, can I try again, make pretty girl come right this time."

Steve couldn't say no to him of course , "it's okay baby everyone makes mistakes, this is your first time, and i know it's easy to get lost in the noises she makes, but you gotta learn to take control, make her wait for it and then give it to her, let's get again puppy, and again, and again until you get it right, you're gonna be a pro at this , I'll make you. " And oh boy you knew you were in for a long night.

"As the U.S. government continues to provide Israel with both weapons and diplomatic cover — most recently, by voting against a UN resolution demanding a ceasefire, coincidentally also on December 11 — activists like DBNY see collective direct action as their best means of curbing the violence. They also describe their organizing as a direct response to solidarity requests from Palestinian labor unions urging workers around the world to halt the flow of weapons to Israel.

... Since September, DBNY has been taking the fight to Easy Aerial’s doorstep. Each week, activists with the group distribute flyers to the more than 11,000 people who work for over 450 businesses in the 300-acre complex, including art studios, food vendors and entertainment companies. The flyers in English and Spanish provide background on Easy Aerial, Crye Precision and the Brooklyn Navy Yard itself .... In addition to the weekly flyering, DBNY has organized demonstrations to coincide with the corporation’s board meetings and public events. Activists have also been directly petitioning the corporation’s executives, board members and staff, demanding they evict Easy Aerial and Crye Precision from the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

While the response from the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation to DBNY has been official silence paired with harassment from hired security — including drone surveillance — the response from workers has been 'overwhelmingly positive,' according to the activists. 'Most of them have been shocked and disgusted to learn that they work alongside war criminals.'

... Ultimately, DBNY hopes to replicate the recent successes of other activists targeting weapons manufacturers supplying the Israeli military. Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions Boston, for example, was able to force the closure of Elbit Systems’s offices in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in August, following a year of demonstrations, as reported by Cambridge Day.

According to DBNY, until the Brooklyn Navy Yard ceases to host businesses trading in 'blood money' from targeting people in Gaza and the United States alike, all New Yorkers and visitors should boycott the complex. To that end, the activists have created a petition demanding the eviction of Easy Aerial and Crye Precision, as well as pledging a boycott until that time.

'We also urge all tenants and workers to take autonomous actions at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and by joining our campaign to disrupt, strike and boycott all genocide profiteers,' said the DBNY spokesperson."
