Loved tonight’s episode - I think this entire season has outdone itself!

My daughter successfully defended her dissertation this morning & is now Dr. Archer! She also announced she has accepted a position as an assistant professor in Animal Science at the University of Illinois Urbana - Champagne. My mom heart is full. I am so proud of her.

I’m so excited! Join #HATM Sunday night at 7:00 central as we deliver a plethora of “Nobody puts (fill in the blank) in the corner” jokes. Everyone is welcome, hope to see you there!

Me in class this evening trying to untangle the concurring and dissenting opinions in the Natl Pork Producers case while trying to understand if Pike is still relevant - but maybe so - or not - but who knows. This class is kicking my ass.

Took about 20 years. And I never thought a book about enslavers using deputization to give themselves policing power would be relevant to our times. But we are where we are. My book, White Power: Policing American Slavery, is now available for preorder. a.co/d/29c7EIP

I think next Sunday might be THE movie #HATM has been waiting 7.5 years for. Thanks for hosting us @herberthistory.bsky.social. I always enjoy spooky season with the #HATM family. Have a great week everyone! See y’all next Sunday!

Me thinks Hannah did that on purpose. 🤣 #HATM

And after Covid I think we all know that people would hide a zombie bite thinking they'd be different. #HATM

A Tallahassee Twinkie is a must have for any Zombie Apocalypse. #HATM

For me - It’s not looking good. 😂😂 #HATM

Tonight’s notes for 28 Days later with #HATM

Today’s #ScholarSunday thread. Also, check out @americanstudier.bsky.social and @gvaughnjoy.bsky.social new website blackwhiteandread.com A great resource and Scholar Sunday’s new home!

My book on this amazing woman will be out about this time next year - read Matthew’s great piece to understand why she’s so important and deserving of a new biography:

Spooky season is upon us with #HATM Join in tomorrow at 7:00 central for a zombie good time! In the mean time, sharing this #HATM podcast episode that does a deep dive into zombie lore and history. Everyone is welcome, hope to see you there! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r...

On top of everything else, my wife @gvaughnjoy.bsky.social is both a web designer & a very talented Cute Penguin Artist. Click through if ye doubt the claim! 🗃️

I have 3 finals: December 2, 4, and 9th. I am seriously contemplating going to Austin on the 6th for a Danny Brown concert. The only downside I’ve encountered with school are the conflicts with all of the concerts out there. 😂🤣 Decisions decisions . . .

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

PSA: @americanstudier.bsky.social and I are launching this website to host our public scholarship and get it off of Substack. It's going to take a lot of self-promotion (sorry!) to rebuild from scratch, but we put so much love into this site (that's notably Nazi-free and penguin-friendly!)

This episode of Peacemaker is fantastic! And can we just talk about how funny Vigilante is. He has me rolling! #HATM

Duplass is one of my favorites. He is one hell of a horror writer, actor, advocate, and is an absolute gem. #HATM

Happy birthday to our very own Historians at the Movies, historian! Hope you have a fabulous birthday! 🎉🎂🥳🎊🎁 #HATM

Share your favorite black and white movie (So many good options to choose from…)

Thanks for hosting, @herberthistory.bsky.social I had a great time as always. I hope everyone has a wonderful week. See y’all next Sunday! #HATM

“Georgia’s in Florida, dumbass.” 😂 #HATM #Idiocracy

This... this is the movie we get top billing on the tags list. 🤦‍♂️ #HATM

“Don’t bullshit everyone with a bunch of smart talk.” Well, 😂😂😂 #HATM #Idiocracy

This one hurts. 😂 #HATM

“That’s not what the other lawyer said.” “Just look at him . . . “ “Judge should be like - guilty - peace.” This is some excellent legal maneuvering. I’m taking notes for class. 😂 #HATM

No. Might be open to some time travel though. #HATM

Domino is pouting b/c I’m watching a movie and she wants to play frisbee. She’s not subtle. 🤣 #HATM

#HATM is trending at exactly 7:00 pm central. Hells yeah! 😎🙌🏼@herberthistory.bsky.social

1. 🤔🤔🤔 2. Grilled chicken with rice. #HATM

Meh. I had more followers on Twitter. But I have better conversations here. I forget sometimes that Twitter exists. And I’m tired of worrying about my audience. I just wanna live a good life, be a good man, and say good things. Maybe somebody will listen. That’s it.

Doing a class activity where I have to track my time. Each class is a client along with my job & computer time. (5 clients total) I’m having to learn how to bill in 6 minute increments. I was having trouble wrapping my brain around it so my husband pulled out the graphic organizers & tally marks. 😂

Post a movie you like with a terrible rotten tomatoes score

This week Historians At The Movies is talking about a film that is absolutely not relevant at all. Join us on Netflix this Sunday, September 21 at 8pm eastern to watch IDIOCRACY. I want everybody here this weekend so share this broadly. Let’s set new #HATM viewership records. See you soon.

1. Love The Three Cornered War by @mkn.bsky.social 2. For spooky season: Any of the Fear Street, Totally Killer - both would be great for the podcast! Looking at you @phdrachel.bsky.social & @nicoledonawho.bsky.social 😃 Once Bitten, Teen Wolf, Lisa Frankenstein. 3. A bagel. #HATM

Working with my study group to break down a case. Sometimes words do not mean what they mean - apparently. 😂

Today’s #ScholarSunday thread. 🗃️

What poster did you have hanging on your wall as a kid? Pulled this out of my mom’s attic a while back.

Good morning. Earlier this year, A24 quietly began expanding into the music industry and signed their first artist, British singer Mark William Lewis. For @vulture.com, I wrote a reported feature about A24's nascent label and the studio's mysterious plans for pivoting into music:

At the pharmacy for C-19 vaccine: Pharm: I have to ask, do you have something to qualify you for the shot? Me: Tells him issue P: Do you have something easier to spell? M: What are my choices? P: Do you like to exercise? M: No P: That’ll do. 😂😂 The List: 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 www.cdc.gov/covid/risk-f...

In exactly 3 days, 21 hours & some change, Historians at the Movies, along w/ our amazing host @herberthistory.bsky.social, will be watching Hostiles on Netflix. I’m looking forward to watching w/ the dazzling & remarkably brilliant #HATM community. Everyone is welcome - hope to see you there!

My dad just texted: “Just wanted to make sure you know Justice Sotomayor is on The Colbert Show tonight. I know you’d want to see the interview and I wouldn’t want you to miss it.” He is my biggest supporter. I love him to pieces! ♥️
