Don't lie to my face

HISTORY IS POLITICAL

Thank you, this adds a lot of explanation.

And a wave of pushback.

I would like to know if anyone on the Executive Committee of the AHA Council dissented from That Email that we all just received and would like to hear from them.

Powerful, lyrical, deeply researched, wonderful book.

nestled between a mealy-mouthed both sides op-ed and a property advertisement!

Seeking reading inspiration! Might anyone recommend historical fiction or pulpy non-fiction about life in ANY Caribbean or Latin American city before 1930? SoCal towns included pre-1848. Trying to understand how to write urban life with texture. 🗃️📖

OpenAI Announces Construction Of New Data Center On Top Of Sick Child

Loved this from first page to last.

Not nearly enough reporting about what's happening in Cuba, which the administration is attempting to squeeze, punish, and coerce into submission and violent self destruction. This is so much worse than the embargo. It's hideous. Haiti, Cuba, ongoing boat strike murders: anti-Black foreign policy

incredible and shameful there isn’t international condemnation of the united states for collective punishment of 10 million people

indeed. save the 'surprise,' redirect the frustration

I wonder if the library staff grumbles when I get back on my bs after a short break (thank you I love you yes this is another ILL request)

😂

Put this guy in charge of something

for, uh, world-historical reasons I am putting this back out there

real sadness with no direction to pour it
