Head of Govt Records Description at State Archives of NC. President, Soc. Of NC Archivists. Opinions my own. He/him. Would rather learn about unprecedented times than live through them. At least we have dogs.
Join me at NC Trivia Live next Wed at @raleightimesbar.bsky.social! I’m your cohost for a night of fun, friends, fascinating facts, and the occasional pun. See you there!

I know a Canes player can’t go after Meier and risk the lead.
But there might be a certain tech powered by 40 gallons of pure water who’s available.
"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥
I’m finding myself watching Mythbusters a lot lately. It’s smart people applying critical thinking and debunking nonsense. In these times where disinformation is king, it’s my comfort show.
Do not mess with librarians. They let complete strangers borrow their books. For a living. Even the hardcovers. They are so much stronger than you know.
If I was a professional wrestler, I'd be called Climate Change. I'd be slow but deadly and would always win because no one would fight me.
I found Pyotr Kochetkov’s Facebook page. #GoCanes
The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

Archival paper lasts at least 3 centuries, also at the whims of people.
Just think about it ok
Check out the newest episode of the State #Archives of NC podcast. I host a real-time journey into a mystery box to simulate a research visit. What’s in the box? Well, there’s Walter Cronkite, a flotilla, and etiquette lessons. Please listen and share!

Reports indicate that this is the #Canes interim goalie. Just try interfering with him.

Scheduling a #CanesAfterDark game at the end of a three day weekend is cruel, NHL. Go Canes tonight (while I sleep).
Thanks so much!!

Any other #archivists on here? I’d love to recreate the good parts of Archives Twitter on here. Sharing my favorite label found in the collections I manage. #archives
I never wanted to live in interesting times.
Yes, there were a lot of factors that contributed to Tuesday’s events, but I think this article hits closer to my thoughts than anything else I’ve read. When folks hear 24 hr barrages of malicious vitriol, it’s hard to break through with calm, rational thinking.
