We all literally, LITERALLY just watched NASA fly four absolute all-stars the farthest any human has ever been from Earth and back flawlessly, and yet we're still continuously forced to pretend Musk's bullshit catastrophe factory is the future of human space exploration

sometimes I wonder if people in other fields have any clue what we go through as women in computational fields... (graph from: www.npr.org/sections/mon...)

Memorial Day is more than cookouts and sales. It is a day to honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to this country. Their sacrifice should remind us that freedom, democracy, and civil rights are never guaranteed , they must be protected and defended by every generation. 🇺🇸 #SheShed

This thing is now out in the world! @drmrb.bsky.social & I wrote a book; I'm going through cycles of "literary masterpiece" and "wait, this is not academic at all, it's a stack of bear puns in a duffle coat". If either of those appeals to you, it's out/pre-orderable depending on where you are.

BREAKING: Today, the US District Court for the District of Columbia granted emergency relief in the AHA and American Oversight’s lawsuit concerning compliance with the Presidential Records Act. 🗃️

BREAKING: Federal judge finds that Presidential Records Act is likely constitutional, issues preliminary injunction requiring compliance with the law. Judge Bates, a George W. Bush appointee, opens his opinion with an Orwell quote.

No. Next question.

Thread. This is awful.

This thread is only a sample of Jocelyn Gould's research into Elizabeth Cheney Sanger. See more in her StoryMap: uploads.knightlab.com/storymapjs/0... @universalhub.com b @hubhistory.com

On August 6, 1920, Elizabeth Cheney Sanger of 518 East Broadway in #SouthBoston walked into Boston City Hall to register to vote. She gave her occupation as journalist at the Boston Globe. Intrigued, researcher Jocelyn Gould uncovered a fascinating story behind the line in the ledger.🧵

Sir, another graduation ceremony in which the students booed AI has dropped. "College graduates were pissed after their school used AI to announce graduates’ names and missed hundreds of names" (via @/FearedBuck on Twitter)

“The Distinctive Boston House” proclaims this early ad for the Hotel Puritan, in Boston’s Back Bay neighborhood. At least 21 women who lived at this hotel registered to vote in 1920, immediately after receiving their voting rights from the newly-ratified 19th Amendment!

"It is almost as if the uncritical and naive adoption of AI has made us more credulous and sapped our critical thinking at the precise moment we should be on guard against its evolving harms." www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult... open acces link: archive.ph/qt59c 6/🧵

that was a blast! thanks for choosing Sneakers #HATM

A fun film for adults about adults, that is also fun for teenagers #HATM

Favorite line in the movie from James Earl Jones #Sneakers #Movies #HATM #FilmSky #90s

The reveal of Abbott here was a carefully kept secret; even the press kit blurs him out. #Sneakers #HATM

Who wrote the part where the blind man drives? #Winner #HATM

A vehicle registration will tell you who owns the car, the search that would tell you corrective lenses is the driver’s license, which is a separate search and is not always the same person who owns the car. #hatm #sneakers

One of the things I enjoy about this film is that both male and female characters are able to show their middle-aged existence. That they carry baggage from earlier parts of their lives . #HATM

When River Phoenix talks about the blue prints, not only is this shot funny, but I’m fairly certain it was parodied on the tv show Psych, with this exact same line. #hatm #sneakers

“Everybody ups their game when Sidney’s on the set. He was the greatest combination of talent, professionalism, kindness, warmth and class I’ve ever met. Not only did everybody up their game professionally; when Sidney was working, everyone was nicer.” #HATM www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

And, of course, how often the simplest solution to a problem is sometimes the dumbest one. All the high tech locks in the world won't protect a door with a jamb weak enough to kick through. #Sneakers #HATM

Not home yet, but I think we are past Poitier’s reaction to phoenix’s accidental blackface “There’s also a small moment very early in the film that sailed right over my head as a young viewer; in preparation for a bank robbery, Phoenix’s earnest teenage character obscures his face with shoe polish.

As we watch this movie, I appreciate how it presents the diversity of neurodivergence #HATM

Birthday theater trip to the Goodspeed Opera House. Fantastic production of Jesus Christ Superstar!

A Tennessee school district has banned Alex Haley’s “Roots” under the state’s so-called ‘Age-Appropriate Materials Act’

I forgot to mention that I am also growing Armenian Cucumbers aka THE BEST CUCUMBERS and now I also get to share that Emperor Tiberius was obsessed with them. Not in the social media "I am obsessed" way, he was literally addicted and had to have them and the gardeners had to make it happen.

I know podcasting is the obvious reference point but I submit that Kash is actually the worst travel blogger you've ever met, right down to the comped trips and lack of any basic respect for a given place and the people there

We don’t talk enough about how the Trump admin has just removed women and people of color from all the front lines of government.

One of the VERY FIRST things done after the Constitutional Convention in 1787 was to have the text of the new Constitution translated into Dutch and German, which were at the time the two largest non-English language spoken in the United States. Here's the National Archives making this point:

Also, having them write a summary isn't about the summary so much as them having to think anout what they read and explain it back. Research shows that kids having to teach what they learned to their peers is a useful way of learning and retaining info. Again, LLMs shortcut that.

In addition, Family Search frequently utilizes prison labor to digitize materials they make available so it's just a turducken of exploitation activehistory.ca/blog/2026/04...

It turns out that sleeping 9 to 10 hours a night, using a steam humidifier, not staying up late, and consuming something like 2L of homemade chicken soup in two days is really helpful for reducing mild coughing and other cold symptoms.

Well this is messed up. People vandalized a historic Black cemetery and spray painted "Trump," among other things, on the graves.

Keep talking about the #EpsteinFiles. Keep talking about the #EpsteinFiles. Keep talking about the #EpsteinFiles. Keep talking about the #EpsteinFiles. Keep talking about the #EpsteinFiles. We demand justice for the surviviors & the girls that didn't survive.

Aha! Thanks to everybody for filling me in.
