They do stuff! Mostly dumb stuff, but still. (Second favorite Dickens.)
That is adorable
I suppose he meant well. Probably.
If this is true, may he rot.
This is a deep track and I love it
Historian of French Revolution here to say that in periods like this, squeamish compromisers do as much to drive radicalization as do ideologues. If you keep making excuses for the unfit king, eventually folks come for you and him.
I liked the McCarthy better, and I am on the record as loathing Cormac McCarthy. What even.
I’ve got a gorgeous leather Aeryn Sun coats that wants a home.
Now, for the singing of the Animal Anthem, played annually for this Wild Card event since 2013... Three Dog Night with "Joy to the World" www.youtube.com/watch?v=as8K... #2026MMM
This show is the rare case where I have suggested to people to tough out the first two episodes. I usually say life is too short to suffer for pop art. But by the end of season 1 I was having an absolute ball. Genuinely excited for season 2.

This is a pretty dang cool website, grown here by a philosopher at ASU: publicscholarship.org/explore
Yes, but that's only because you've actually read him.

A screen grab of the calendar showing that the WILD CARD is March 9th and March 8th is Wild Card Eve, spent rethinking your whole bracket in agonies of second guesses.
Happy #2026MMM Wild Card Eve to all who celebrate!
No lies detected. And don't start me on Reflections and the Decent Drapery.
His gift was that he could and did combine the two.
Oh good gravy. Burke had thoughts on a lot of things, and they were mostly, at the end of the day, about boobs. Signed, an actual eighteenth-century scholar.
Many of the articles in this upcoming themed issue of MELUS are up on advanced access-- including @jamesbliss.bsky.social @maiagiladi.bsky.social and more! academic.oup.com/melus/advanc...
I never teach Wealth of Nations without Theory of Moral Sentiments and you shouldn’t either.
Do Theory of Moral Sentiments, you cowards.
WAT
And the ones who insist you have to cook organic toddler meals from scratch will also holler if you put the child in front of a screen so you can do that, in my experience.
If it did exist, it would be worth a premium!
Are travel agents still a thing? Trying to book a family trip is just ... so much work.
I think that confusion is overstated. Readers were generally adept at picking out histories from True Histories. And yet still they had feelings about their reading.

MLA, ACLS, and AHA lawsuit reveals use of ChatGPT in illegal termination of grants by DOGE. Motion for summary judgment asserts violations of the First Amendment; violations of the Equal Protection Clause; and violation of the separation of powers. mla.org/NEH-Lawsuit
The MLA, @acls1919.bsky.social, and @historians.org have filed a motion for summary judgment in our lawsuit to restore the NEH. Discovery documents reveal that DOGE rather than the acting chair led grant terminations and targeted grants using ChatGPT. More at mla.org/NEH-Lawsuit
“The facts in this case have exposed the administration’s total disregard for the democratic process and for the value of the humanities that the NEH exists to promote,” said the MLA’s executive director, @paulakrebs.bsky.social
