Hey business owners—are you looking to grow?

We partnered with The be; community to create the Directory of Allies; a curated listing of inclusive businesses on the south shore. It’s not just a list of super cool people and their businesses - it’s a fully AEO / SEO optimized powerhouse that is surfacing these organizations at the top of search for their industry and area.

We believe good people deserve good things. And these businesses? They’re getting seen by thousands of people—and they deserve it.

Do some good with us👇🏼

"It's definitely hard to go public with your disability, especially autism, but no matter where you go, no matter how you feel, you're always going to be a normal person like everyone else." - Homer Stevens

America turns 250 today.
The words on the statue were written in 1883. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses. The country’s best line — and its hardest one to actually live up to.

The welder. The scientist. The firefighter. The saxophonist. The builder. The doctor. The woman holding the torch.

Happy birthday, America. This is what you look like.

The map is changing.

For decades on the South Shore, Pride meant a drive to Boston or a drive to Providence. This year it meant walking to your own town green. Halifax, Middleboro, Stoughton — June 13 and 14, 2026.

We covered all three. New blog post on what we saw: organizers, sponsors, performers, and the kids who will never know a South Shore that didn't have this. Plus the full 2026 South Shore Pride calendar — fourteen events across the region.

Three Prides. Three town lawns. One weekend.

Halifax. Middleboro. Stoughton. June 13 and 14, 2026. For decades, if you grew up q***r on the South Shore, Pride meant a drive to Boston or a drive to Providence. This year it meant walking to your own town green.

We were at all three. Cameras, notebooks, the whole thing.

The new blog post covers what we saw — the organizers, the sponsors, the performers, the families, the kids who will never know a South Shore that didn't have this. It also includes the full 2026 South Shore Pride calendar: fourteen events across the region.

Lawn by lawn. The map is changing.

Read it here:

A decade ago, Massachusetts' South Shore Pride calendar barely existed. This June, fourteen towns held Prides — including Halifax, Middleboro, and Stoughton.

Rainbow Recess at The be; community went red carpet this week. Paula of emevoli hosted. A runway appeared. We played paparazzi.

For the uninitiated: Rainbow Recess is be;'s one Friday-night a month invitation to take a playful pause — make art, play games, share snacks, have chats, refuse to be picked last. This week it got dressed up for PRIDE.

Some folks worked the runway. Some held court on the back patio. Others posted up in the be;stro for the quieter conversations that room makes possible. All of it counted.
Photos below. Find yourself. Find your friends.
Rainbow Recess runs every Friday at 6pm at be; community in East Bridgewater.

A separate thanks to Paula of Emevoli for hosting. emevoli is her self-love apparel line — the word reads as a brand name until you catch it in a mirror, where it spells I love me.

Sunday afternoon. First Parish lawn in Stoughton. Sixth year of this one, and you can feel it.

Rainbow Knights ran the day end-to-end: live music, drag on the steps, kids running between food trucks and the raffle table, resource tables tucked into the shade. No spectacle. No sponsorship parade. Just the kind of Pride small towns do best — neighbors showing up for neighbors, where being yourself is treated as the obvious choice, not the brave one.

We spent the weekend criss-crossing the South Shore: Halifax, Middleboro, Stoughton. Three lawns, three crowds, one weekend. The grand ones get the coverage. The lawn ones are where the work is.

Thanks to Rainbow Knights and everyone who showed up.

59 photos from Halifax Pride. Find yourself, tag yourself, share them with whoever needs them.

The South Shore doesn't always get to be where this happens. Halifax made sure it was.

Thank you to Halifax Pride for putting on the day, Edwina Typhoon and Bianca Knight for the show, the sponsors for making it possible, and to everyone who showed up as themselves.

There's a lot of love down here.

Middleboro Pride.

I spent summers at Camp Yomechas and years working at the Middleboro Y. It's where I figured out who I was — in a town that hasn't always been easy on people who are different. Seeing Pride come back here this year, bigger than I expected, meant a lot.

Metacomet Studio was proud to sponsor it. Huge thanks to Alex Cook for taking it on and pulling it off, and to Town of Middleborough for hosting.

Thank you to our fellow sponsors for standing with us: Engayge, Personal College Counseling, Inc., Law Offices of Adam Bond, Tupperware, and Middleboro Democratic Town Committee.

And to the vendors who showed up to make the day: Nedrah & Nicole’s Nerdy Nook, Kraz-A Kreations, Danzen's Drawstrings n thingz, Sarah Angley - Spirit Medium, Wood-Burnt Designs by Donna White, Spirits and Stars Crystals and Cards, Luxor Limo and Transportation, The be; community.

Photos below. Find yourself, tag yourself, share them with whoever needs them.

A lot of love in Middleboro yesterday. More than the town gets credit for.
