🌞 Good morning #fediverse! This is GBH News bringing you the world from #Boston. It is 68F at Logan Airport and visibility is 10 miles.

In #Ecuador attendees to a wake were shocked when a 76 year old knocked on the inside of her coffin...as she was, well, not dead.

#Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey announced the formation of a "green bank" to decarbonize housing in the state.

For the first time in 15 months, the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank will not hike interest rates. #inflation

@bikepedantic This question brought to you by the fact that there was a GBH-wide email that a whoopie pie food truck would be coming to our street...AND THEN IT DID NOT COME.

@gbhnews @bikepedantic What? No!

Clearly we need to organize a Community Whoopie Pie Delivery Truck event. Or at least a delivery cargo bike, though I suspect that won't have nearly enough capacity to properly meet demand.

@wordshaper @bikepedantic it would have to be a fleet of cargo bikes but...that sounds good to me!

@meghansmith @gbhnews @bikepedantic I admit I am now pondering ways to do proper whoopie pie filling flavors. I can see a reasonable path to hazelnut, mint, raspberry, and red bean (not at once), but I'm having some trouble with the orange, IPA, and Bailey's variants.

This may need some experimentation over the next few weeks.

@wordshaper @meghansmith @gbhnews It's tough work, but I suppose I could assist with quality control.
