Just learned the machine that cooks hot dogs and other cylindrical food stuffs you usually see at a gas station is called a “roller dog”

Brooch - England, early 19th century

I missed you, Santa Fe

I strongly recommend this collection of Rilo Kiley member appearances in pop culture through the years, most especially Jenny Lewis' 1986 anti-crack PSA nicstalgia.substack.com/p/rilo-kiley...

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

Book talk: join us to talk about Binding Media on Friday October 3 with the amazingest team of @apprecovery.bsky.social RSVP for link!

this fancy school has a beautiful resource called The Common Press and I got to go to a workshop today and we wrote a poem together. we each set our own line and printed! Jessica, the director, is also extremely rad.

Excited to think hemispherically with @elikaortega.bsky.social

grateful for the friends who remind me that I “Must resist the Protestant guilt, Protestant guilt is the mind killer“

If you’re in the Boston area this Wednesday I’d love for you to come on out! This talk is free and open to the public. as.tufts.edu/art-architec...

Super excited to see Julia Smith’s archival work turn into this fun doc project in and about NM that “uncovers how the Acid Western redefined the Western genre — and why it continues to shape cinema today.” m.youtube.com/watch?v=tWIC...

there’s something kinda hopeful about seeing job openings for people doing really cool things but also I would selfishly like to see more than 1 job opening that I can do without contorting myself into a pretzel 🥨

Me encantaría que esto generara tanto escándalo como la censura del mediocre de Kimmel.

Tlingit artist Nicholas Galanin, “Architecture of return, escape (The British Museum)”, a deerskin map a floor plan of the British Museum and possible escape routes for various Indigenous cultural belongings held there.

Yes. The rest of us can learn that if one keeps repeating the same absurd maxim, backed up with plausible-sounding pseudoscience, we too can transform ourselves into a marketing vehicle potent enough to overcome both common sense and toxic workplace allegations and achieve sustained press coverage

GOVERNOR: You get that obituary photo of Robert Redford? PHOTOGRAPHER: Sure did boss, real fuckin sexy just like you asked. GOVERNOR: Well, aren't they all. But does he look sufficiently Santa Fean? PHOTOGRAPHER: this photograph has a standing reservation at The Shed, ma'am.

All the Santa Fe/ New Hollywood people I love in paranoid 1970s movies are dying; it is a time of monsters

On the one hand it feels so, so stupid to be publishing a book right now, but on the other hand, I think: well, books survived the Nazis. It’s something I can put out to remind the world I existed and thought and cared, even if I don’t make it through.

It is a new academic year, and there is a new call for proposals by #DoctTalks. The organizers welcome any topic within the broad fields of architectural history and its related disciplines. The deadline is 26 of September, don't miss out! doctalks.net

Prince Street Girls, NYC — Susan Meiselas, 1978

NM’s governor and many ppl who have decision making power are imho embarrassingly too eager to say they’re taking the state into the ”future” with little regard for their constituents — but communities in NM are very aware of what’s at stake.

saw Jeff Hiller won an Emmy for Somebody Somewhere. A wonderful, wonderful show that I think is kind of radical in its commitment to narrating the beauty of the everyday.

YESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

“I’m an eleven, but continue.”

A thread of Inuit art that you didn't know you needed, starting with one of my favourites 🧵

teeny tiny NM public radio is very cool bc they’ll play a folk music recording from the 1970s Kentucky doing a cover of a Nova Scotian song about mining catastrophes with the singer drawing connections to a global need to turn away from mining and coal before they start

Saturday 9/27, 7:30 p.m. “Beyond Terror: Vincent Price on Television” Join us for an evening of TV programs showcasing the many facets of horror icon Vincent Price, from a tour of his art-filled home to talk show appearances with Dinah Shore. @imvictoriaprice.bsky.social in person! ucla.in/4n0vNiy

New Mexico's chief medical officer has provided a COVID-19 vaccine prescription for all residents that the department recommends people bring when they go to get a vaccine just to ensure no problems.

EW

speaking of political assassinations, today we denounce again the dark beginning of neoliberalism, the assassination of Salvador Allende in Chile, a military coup backed by United States. 'The U.S. spent $8 million on covert actions between 1970 and the 1973 coup'. www.npr.org/2023/09/10/1...

Remember that when Luigi allegedly smoked a CEO and the media did this same act (including Kirk, if I remember correct!) but people were all "naw that was funny we stan our assassin king" and the media eventually gave up. The full court media/politician press doesn't work when people hate a fucker

… soy yo o… les parece que se copio el argumento de la reseña de jacobin, lo cambió un poco y lo publicó en el baffler?

Really so excited to assign a few episodes in the spring 🛸

“why would anyone accept a job in [insert red state]?” Oh I dunno, maybe they have a life there, a support network, or the whole academic grind running on shame & the sliver of a chance to be in an environment to continue research/ teaching. That shit is so rude& snooty. Stop it!

Prestige HBO series based on real life when!!!!

Ken Shirriff’s whole article here goes into the history of Navajo involvement in chip fabrication, it’s very interesting: www.righto.com/2024/08/pent...

Once again the research has landed me poking around in the business research journals, having to humble myself. Some of this is not what you’d think!

It's the half anniversary of the publication of Binding Media and it is still half off (only $37.50!!) until Sept 8 during the end-of-summer sale at @stanfordpress.bsky.social

Really need a Dorian Gray-inspired allegory about Marco Rubio.

Went to get free coffee and then a Kentucky coffee tree pod fell into my cup, splashing the coffee all over my face and soaking my shirt. Turns out those things are toxic? Anyway that’s my official first day at the fancy school

“Gaza Riviera” is such a uniquely horrifying phrase, contemplating it is like looking at a death mask for the world.

No one is “part Indian.”

Since some of you are clearly getting your information on Mexican politics from people who think that Mexico either ever had a bipartisan system, or people who thought Sheinbaum won a seven-way race: read a fucking book Here's some recommendations of texts associated with recent social movements

Honestly how fucking dare he

The Birth of You Know Who, from Miss Piggy's Treasury of Art Masterpieces from the Kermitage Collection — Michael K. Frith, 1984

Biased (as a Libra) but Libras are perpetual improvers of everyday life. Beauty! Variety! It’s nice! We all deserve it!

THE LAYERS!!!

This one is also *amazing!* Thank you @casadefauxdobe.bsky.social! Such a bizarre and terrifying piece. The animation style is a fascinating hodgepodge of styles. (Has anyone written about animation and the Anthropocene? There're many examples.) Available for free here: tubitv.com/movies/55147...

The particular bummer of your water bottle top getting loose in your backpack before happy hour and utterly soaking the new book you were gifted that very same morning 🫠
