Thanks, Kathleen. It's an enormous blessing that she's still here and I'll take that.

Thank you. There are so many gifts in the in between.

I appreciate you reaching out.

I guess elder care doesn't really describe it. At nearly 93, it's dementia. The long goodbye...

I see all of you in elder care situations. My Thanksgiving day is a drive to PGH to hang with my Mom, who might not know the day. Still, it's an incredible gift to be together.

I love this. Thank you, Adam

Lost a beloved mentor unexpectedly over the weekend. Such a shock, but at least I know that she knew how important she was to me. Take a minute to tell those people how much they've influenced your life while you have the chance.

Folks who are also on historians.social on Mastodon - the instance is shutting down at the end of October, so you'll want to migrate or whatever the appropriate verb is. 💙📚 🗃 #earlymodern

Hard agree. (Big fan of old fashioned core curriculum here; give everyone two full years of liberal education. Tough shit if you dont like history or philosophy or polisci.)

Be sure to check out this upcoming immigration history manuscript workshop from our colleagues with the @ihrc-umn.bsky.social :

This is a global crisis problem as far as I’m concerned. People who say they have historically cared about national autonomy must step up. In years past this would not be a question for the US, regardless of party affiliation.

Release! Classic 3.2 is out. Looks pretty much the same but includes approximately a metric ton of accessibility improvements.

Know who knows how to manage budgets? All those research faculty in labs that they would never give tenure line jobs. Those are the folks who know how to get things done on a shoestring.

Crazy. All of it.

Sitting on my to-read pile and I think I can’t let it go any longer.
