Nothing makes the morning better than page proofs! @cindyermus.bsky.social @ageofrevolutions.bsky.social

My thanks to the University of Buffalo Honors College, Department of Indigenous Studies, Department of Anthropology, and UB Libraries for hosting me today. It was wonderful to speak with students and colleagues about our new book.

There’s still time for those of you on UB’s campus. Talk at 11:30 in Capen 107.

Greetings from Canada

had to read the article to understand wtf was going on here which is that Meta is literally feeding Instagram pictures parents took of their teenage daughters to middle aged men as ads for Threads

Well that’s some bullshit

In a neighborhood pub that used to be a funeral home and the organist is going off on ‘Crazy Train’

Prof teaching our new book today wrote: "Students talking about you in their groups: 'that professor bro'; 'he seems so chill'; 'he's got aura'" Does this mean Avatar Rick got rizz?

My favorite aunt who was also my babysitter used to do this with her girlfriends. I could never! Lol Look at the auntie on the phone 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

We just got a glimpse of how Black towns, businesses, churches, schools, homes, and Black bodies were destroyed and killed In white Utah at a white college at a white rally a white man killed by another white man resulted in anger at… Black people & institutions.. just like in the past.

So great.

Our book is out!! Happy publication day to our fantastic team of editors and authors.

Happy to report that 'In the Land of the Lacandón' is being used in classrooms this fall. We think this can be a great tool for instructors and had that in mind when we put it together. I've already gotten emails from very engaged and excited students! 🗃️🏺 #skystorians #academicsky

The Department of Homeland Security cowardly pushed people around at the Portland protest.

The boy is 15 and requested pasta and clams with roasted broccoli for dinner. The Chablis was not his request, but my personal accommodation.

BREAKING: ICE is sending Russian dissidents back to Russia. When the dissidents arrived in Russia, the Russian authorities were given documents relating to their asylum applications in the US which under US law are confidential. This seems to be part of a secret agreement between Trump and Putin.

Making a case for best time of the year: BLTS—bacon lettuce tomato shishitos

The beans, cucumbers, and peppers can go forthwith, but eggplant and tomatoes are still producing, and, in the case of tomatoes, we like to fry up a lot of green tomatoes to end the season, so hopefully they'll have the discernment to wait on those. Looking forward to the help! Such good governance!

Regular Blueskyers will know about my neighborhood wine fairy 🧚 who just dropped off these opened bottles at our back door.

Time again to re-up this apparently: www.liberalcurrents.com/portland-is-...

More than 300k Black women being pushed out of the labor market while white men gained 365k more jobs is what we mean when we refer to racism as systemic.

Could they get here in time to help with yard work? There’s a lot of yard debris bins to fill in this city in the next month or two as the season changes.🌱

THE ICE AGENTS ARE WEARING FUCKING NAZI STAHLHELMS WHAT THE FUCK COME ON, YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP

Convoy of ICE cars seen in Cambridge today just steps from Harvard campus.

Super excited to return to my undergrad alma mater, the University of Kansas Department of History, to talk about my book and chat with undergrads. Rock chalk!

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

It's just a sports ban. It's just a bathroom ban. It's just a healthcare for kids ban. It's just a military service ban. It's just a federal jobs ban. It's just a university housing ban. It's just a passport & visa ban. It's just one Constitutional right. It's just your status as free citizens.

In response to the dismantling of the CDC, California, Oregon, and Washington have launched the West Coast Health Alliance, which will make their own science-based vaccine guidelines, and make sure vaccines are accessible to everyone.

tonight’s dinner: a pile of garden-fresh panzanella, cob of corn, and glass of vouvray

Question: Why did US put big tariffs on India despite major national interest in cultivating a strategic counterweight to China and trying to isolate Russia? Answer: Because the US president lied that he fixed India-Pakistan and India wouldn’t go along with the lie. (Seriously, that’s the answer)

Hey, remember how Nazi Germany destroyed information about LGBT people just before things got really bad? We’re now at that stage. Do what you can to stop this buffoonery, because things are starting to snowball and we need to make a stand.

Alright, I just watched 'Beau Travail' (I know, I know!) and there is no reason this movie should be as absolutely captivating as it is, and yet now I have no one to talk to about it. How did Claire Denis do that?

So good

If you’re in SF-area, the kind folks of @profsandpints.bsky.social are hosting me at Bartlett Hall Brewery this Thursday 8/28 at 6pm! I’ll talk Unflattening, my comics-making process, teaching comics, and share sneak peeks at the new work Nostos! Info www.ticketleap.events/tickets/prof...

the crisis in which the University of Chicago is now engulfed -- one entirely of its own making, and which has led to the (hopefully temporary) suspension of admissions into numerous PhD programs in the humanities -- represents I think a seismic event in the history of American higher education 1/
