This thread on biscuits made my morning, especially the bookish biscuits. #bookhistory #bibliography

Starting the Charlotte Smith chapter of Rebecca Romney’s new book feels like a treat today.

Hey ASECS members in Michigan (adjacent states too!). Interested in gathering in the center of the state for a dinner on one of the virtual ASECS weekends? I'll organize if I know who to invite. #ASECS2025 #ASECS25

It’s so easy to vote in the @asecsoffice.bsky.social elections for the Executive Board! Let’s break some voter turnout records!

Anyone have access to Historical Texts database and could look up something for me?

I get that for Christians it's important to see Christianity as good. but none of the rest of us fucking care if it's "real" Christians or "fake" Christians robbing us of healthcare or destroying our democracy.

Unacceptable. @cignahealthcare.bsky.social

Wtf Cigna. Cancer patients are your patients—where is the care they deserve?

Sold some eggs to our neighbor yesterday & am thinking we should upcharge for folks who voted for this nonsense 👀

4) Do not normalize proving your citizenship status on demand. You are not required to do that. Refuse. White American citizens are safest in refusing because they're the hardest to fuck with and they should use it.

Folks are about to get a hard lesson in food sovereignty. If you don’t have control over your food sources, they can make you do anything.

As I prepare to return home from NY Bibliography Week 2025, I’ve been thinking on libraries/booksellers/collectors and ethics relating to Indigenous peoples 1/

📢 Calling all historians and researchers! The Women's History Network is now accepting abstracts for its 33rd Annual Conference, themed "Hidden in Plain Sight: Women in Archives, Libraries, Museums, and Personal Collections." More info: womenshistorynetwork.org/whn-annual-c... #WomensHistory #GLAM

Will science folks, seeing their funding suddenly gutted, listen to humanities folks now? Will they value the lessons we have learned the past 20 years, doing urgent work w no $$?

Bibliography Week NY is go! Can’t wait to see all you bibliophiles! 📖💕

I mute ppl who mostly RT stuff. I wanna read posts from you— by all means, QT, but I am not here for tons of RT news articles and hot takes.

Just sending this to all the editors I owe work to….

Going to see this during #bibweek at the end of January. Can’t wait!

Recovering from a chest cold this morning, so I’m shifting into a lower gear to do intellectual work. Reading other books that model a writing style I admire to get it into my system before I try to sit down and do my own writing later this week.

Excited to meet the Bibliographical Society of America’s 2025 New Scholars at the annual meeting next month. Hope to see my fellow bibliographers there!

Favorite London tattoo artists that I could get an appt with in April?

I have been thinking about this a lot lately: that the “phasing out” of humanities scholarship as part of popular education is an effort to prevent people from being able to interpret their political reality.

We’re close to losing Sesame Street, a show that was started to provide free educational media to marginalized kids in our country. That’s not an accident in my opinion and it’s just one more example of how Capitalism robs our society of the sweet and good things we build to care for one another.

But have you submitted your report? And your budget for the $1,000 that won't pay for basically anything? And the justification for needing to do the thing that is literally in your job description? Please also fill out all of these little boxes on a virtual form that we'll do nothing with.

Nothing like the week before Xmas to reveal in your email inbox how clicking "unsubscribe" actually means nothing to retailers.

Check out @embrarian.bsky.social & me in this week’s #ScholarSunday to hear our interview on the Women’s Print History Podcast

In the final grading stretch for fall 2024. So close to break….

Oh hey it’s me. Check it out.

Last night was the last meeting of my grad night class on Indigenous memory. It was an honor to learn with those students this term. I’m so excited to be done with those long Mondays tho.

Today Eric Hemenway, tribal archivist for LTBB Odawa, is speaking to both my undergrad and grad Indigenous Lit classes. I’m so grateful they get to learn from him.

The new follower waves here are overwhelming.

Do you subscribe to a print newspaper? I’m just so tired of looking at screens, but with *waves at economy* subscribing ($$) to print feels like a luxury.

Today I am grading student close reading essays, teaching my Indigenous Lit Class (we are finishing Diane Wilson's The Seed Keeper) giving feedback at the Campus Master Plan workshop, & getting an oil change. I'm also crying a bit bc I'm overworked and underpaid. You?

Jumping in to our NAHM event on Native Women in STEM. 6pm EST, FREE! Join now! www.eventbrite.com/e/native-ame... #Indigenous #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth #STEM

But from your local bookstores! I love buying from Native owned Birchbark Books in MN.

What boots do we love for pavement pounding level walking, but still look nice for work? *I’m lookin at you, NYC pals

Don't silence yourself before they censor you. Keep being you. That is resistance.

For me to put Native American Heritage Month events on my Uni's calendar I have to watch a training video for some software, and get a 100% on a quiz about it and this just feels like another barrier to me... I'm tired. I'm tired of taking quizzes to do under-compensated diversity labor for y'all

I can't decide if I love this idea, or if I feel perfectly content to let all of my Tweets die...?

Honestly, this. There have been (are, actively right now) detention centers under every recent president. There have been detention centers for citizens. There has always been mass deportations. You are likely already on some or another list.

Hi new followers. I'm too overwhelmed to assess every profile for evidence that you are real, so I'm just blocking accounts that seem obvious as bots (no profile pic, no posts, minimal/no bio), adding folks whose names I know IRL, and hoping the rest of y'all tag me in something so I can follow soon

In this scary time, please remember that you have the power to fight. In case you feel like fighting right-wing schoolboards, I am pleased to present to you this hastily-written nonexpert coffee-fueled guide, "How To Fuck Up an Asshole School Board." Use and share! docs.google.com/document/d/1...
