These people found a baby goat trapped in a pit. They took him home and cared for him overnite. The next day they tried to find the owner but had no luck. While looking - they found a group of goats with the same white fur. Then this happened. Original post

Unfortunately, a stunned Paris is how they all got into this whole mess to begin with

Choosing Laura K. Noller's 'Disillusionment in the Schlaraffenland', @michellelkahn.bsky.social highlighted the article's 'highly readable... attention to space, place, environment, and emotions during the Second World War' and the occupation of the Channel Islands www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Choosing @christianrau.bsky.social's 'Ambivalent Entanglements and Participations', @dacretu.bsky.social noted that 'Rau skilfully demonstrates... “East German life-worlds and subjectivities” as innovative approaches to understanding post-1945 Germany'. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

New household tradition: the Analogue Algorithm. The kids pick one song, then I pick a song that their song reminds me of. Take turns back and forth. Couple that with The Family Mix Tape: add the songs to a playlist.

Only the intro left. Eep!

A Habsburg sweep at the World Cup. Remember, a win for the Habsburgs is a win for the chin

Yo, TSN commentator. If you’re going to talk about Crvena Zvezda, either pronounce it reasonably or have the sense to say Red Star.

Open Access for the next two weeks! New title of the series "The history and politics of Fascism", Cambridge University Press.

I've worked in steel, plastic, and other auto production lines. I've done "menial," retail and customer service. Every professional, white collar, academic, etc. should have to work in physical labour and/or industries where they interact with the public. Give perspective. Helps in the long-run imo.

Im so exhausted by this pattern. Historians spend years in the archives to write detailed accounts of the past. Only for journalists, doctors, podcasters, and now cartoonists, to swoop in and get paid a lot of money to trot out the same work, "uncovering hidden histories" that are not at all hidden.

With alt text, for those of us with disabilities, and also those trying to read this on their phones: Please like this reply to make it come near the top, but don't follow me for it, that's not what I'm trying to achieve.

I spoke with Keiran Hardy of the AVERT network about what we can learn from comparing strong and weak extremist movements, and what we're seeing right now as we watch one particular extremist movement in transition from weak to strong www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um9P...

Uber drivers in Victoria successfully bargained a collective agreement (!!), and here’s what they got: pressprogress.ca/uber-drivers... The company's "largely unfettered authority to do whatever it wants is now restrained," says @thelawofwork.bsky.social.

A great thread For me, Schorske’s Fin-de-siècle Vienna: Politics and Culture and Ecksteins’ Rites of Spring: The Great War and the Birth of the Modern Age

I am probably highly skeptical of most of the (quantitative) studies, but this nevertheless sounds like a very cool thread. Let’s see what you got, Roman! ⚽️

If PERSEPOLIS is your only exposure to Marjane Satrapi, I recommend doing a deep dive into her other comics. When I finished library school and was unemployed for months, that was a project I took on and it was well, well worth it. She also put out a collection in 2024, WOMEN LIFE FREEDOM.

Photos of newly arrived immigrants at Ellis Island. Augustus Sherman took the photos between 1902 and 1920 when he worked as the Chief Registry Clerk. Striking to me how the outfits all look good because they have a discernible silhouette (shape and drape).
