This year, salmon reached parts of the Klamath where they hadn't been seen in a century. Let the joy of the river peoples be a fitting monument to Dick Cheney's passing.

Having fun with the tags at #SHA2025

This is NOT meant to be a damper but in both cases they didn't really campaign as Democrats--this was one of the most bipartisan "mad at power bills" elections I've ever seen 😂

Disturbing news out of Auburn University, where the admin is pressuring professors to sign a statement saying they're complying with an "anti-DEI" law and TPUSA is holding a rally and trying to record classes. I hear faculty are terrified to sign, worried this is a pretense for mass firings.

I'm not an American League girlie so I dont know Blue Jays lore, but looks like they've exhausted their bullpen? (And don't have Dodgers pitcher money?)

I love baseball but I'm SLEEPY and therefore mad at the Blue Jays

Imagine your first postseason homer being the tying run in the top of the ninth in Game 7

BASEBALL FIGHT

Imagine your first postseason homer being a 3 run in game 7 against Ohtani

Question for the academics: is it common knowledge what the "raise" portion of tenure and promotion looks like? Are people willing to talk about it or is it a secret?

Idk if they'll win this thing but I'm having a delightful time watching the Blue Jays

Truly delightful sixth inning, Go Canada

My uni is limiting our ability to use DocuSign and moving us to Box Sign instead. You know, a platform no one uses?

Miller oopsie doodled and said the quiet part out loud, talking about DT aka himself having “plenary authority”: A plenary power or plenary authority is a complete and absolute power to take action on a particular issue, with no limitations

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others. Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla: “People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.” 1/3

Haven't been on in a minute because it's extremely depressing, but need help with map stuff. Is there a program that does map layering, that undergrads can use? I have a georeferenced map I really want them to be able to put interactive "dots" on but storymaps doesn't do that

Spent the last decade reading conservative blogs use the word "Orwellian" more than they used the word "the" and now they're literally just saying "War is Peace" out loud in front of everybody.

I wrote this story because the case of the Guatemalan children hasn’t received nearly as much media attention as it deserves. I wanted to highlight the full extent of the government’s depraved conduct. I hope you’ll read and share. Don’t look away. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

A top 50 US university yesterday fired an instructor, a department chair, and a dean because a course made some reference to transgender people without the brief official course description in the catalog saying “trigger warning: gender.” In conclusion, those intolerant lefty kids, cancel culture.

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

Kristi Noem: "In LA, what we're been going after is the worst of the worst. They're murderers." (They literally raided a Home Depot.)

My former student and Augusta Jewish Museum Manager Angela Russo at the Georgia Historical Marker Dedication for the Congregation Children of Israel Synagogue!

When y'all read my book do you mind reviewing it on Amazon? Currently the only review is from one of the Confederate troll accounts on Twitter who think I'm a "Maoist carpetbagger" 😬

Surely this can't be used to hurt faculty at all! /s

Andor is THE show of all time and I can't believe it's ending tonight

Every book published in the United States is sent to the Library of Congress. Also, if you are under 16 you cannot use the reading room or order books.

Now getting ready for the South Caroliniana Society's annual meeting, "E is for Edgar" with Walter Edgar, SC ETV, and BBQ 😊

Historic marker time!

There is no greater scam than the graduation regalia industry

www.georgiahistory.com/events/histo... If you're in Augusta, come to the state historic marker nomination for William J. White! My students worked on the application!

Trump tried to bury this story on a Friday night, but it’s extremely important: He’s planning to take land on the border controlled by the Dept. of Interior and sign it over to Dept. of Defense so migrants “would have trespassed on a military installation,” resulting in harsher punishment.

House Republicans have passed legislation that would restrict access to the ballot and eliminate online and mail-in voter registration. We need your help to stop this GOP voter suppression bill in the Senate. Tell your senators to protect voting rights by rejecting S. 128: indivisible.org/reso...

There is no clearer way to say it. Letters from an American - April 13 @hcrichardson.bsky.social

In today's Muster, @melissadevelvis.org discusses her new book, Gendering Secession: White Women and Politics in South Carolina, 1859–1861 www.journalofthecivilwarera.org/2025/03/inte...

Trump threatens to put American citizens on deportation flights to a slave prison in El Salvador

The United States government under Trump by all accounts is shipping these people into indefinite involuntary servitude in El Salvador without even the pretense of any judicial process, much less duly convicting them of a crime. It’s an enslaving operation.

God, the Soviets wanted that shut for ages, and now...hold on a minute...

Let's just say I worked on two big projects this past year 😊 Gendering Secession is OUT NOW! I can't believe! Bit.ly/genderingsecession

During the McCarthy era, professors at Yale lost positions thanks to anonymous accusations. Today advances in technology allow us to dispense with costly human informants and destroy the lives of scholars far more efficiently.

The larger picture, as others have pointed out, is that the Biden administration and now the Trump administration have cast anyone who defends Palestine as "pro-Hamas" and anyone who defends the rights of the people saying it as "Hamas sympathizers" which makes it much easier to justify persecution.

Please send me all the pics of my book 😍 bit.ly/genderingsecession

I am once again pushing my "War of 1812 is really cool, actually" agenda

An embarrassment to the country

I think the idea that "you'll change when you become a mother" is gender essentialist noise, but I will say I've become so much more sensitive to child death. Please vaccinate your kids.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children. We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread. www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-m...
