Urban History as Urgent Work: Erika Hanna in Conversation with Sam Grinsell Erika Hanna's interviews Sam Grinsell on urban history as urgent work. Read Prof. Ginsell's Urban History as Urgent Work, an Argument for Disciplinary…

In the latest Urban History interview, @erikahanna.bsky.social speaks to @samgrinsell.bsky.social about his recent article 'Urban History as Urgent Work'. It's an incredibly rich discussion of the intersection of urban history and environmental history, and how we do and communicate our research

so interesting

I wonder why so high — something to do with detecting prey underground?

would be cool if we can now discover high frequency audio chitterings between them 😻

plenty of genuine evil to go around, decent people represented by the worst 'leaders' imaginable

Let me laugh.

Evergreen tweet, in that I'm noticing supply chain issues for even small and almost 'retail' parts I need to order

and a similar lack of stocks doing basic DIY stuff for someone a few weeks ago

tried again, landscape, same score 😅

I'm almost more curious about how cleverly it's set up: simple and addictive

I think it gets harder, then easier at the end, to encourage users to keep trying

Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success

I don’t think people living outside the US realize how a lack of universal healthcare BREAKS people. There are people in catastrophic accidents who wake up in an ambulance and wish they were dead because they have no way to pay for their treatment.

love his attitude 😻

quite the scaly flex 😻

Iran knows a commitment from Trump is worth nothing at all

if they can keep up any pressure, they will hope to unsettle others in the ruling US regime enough to constrain him

US oil industry and Russia are loving $🛢️📈
