"And the Lord said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves." This literally writes itself.

JK Rowling is now represented by a trans person in the Scottish parliament. Absolutely incredible.

30 more exams to grade and then I am done with my last semester as a graduate instructor! Don’t worry though! I will still be around Ole Miss because I got a Visiting Assistant Professor position!

Dissertation submitted. I did it!

We will not get a second Reconstruction from people who don’t defend the first.

April 30, 1776: The Continental Congress' naval committee sends Commodore Esek Hopkins a letter that coldly reminds him his mission this spring was to protect the Chesapeake from British ships—not to carry out the raid he undertook against the Bahamas, which delivered dubious results. 1/3

It’s the 250th year of American independence, and the Pope and the King of England are reminding Americans of their revolutionary values, principles, and ideals Somewhere, John Adams is confused as fuck

Charlottesville used bookstore’s got game

First laugh of the day

A 26 year old voter somehow did not understand the role taxes serve in a functional society and expected Trump to wave his magic pixie wand to get her more money. An absolute failure of our education system to teach civics has blown the foundation out from under this republic.

King Charles: I cannot help noticing the readjustments to the East Wing. I'm sorry to say that we British of course made our own small attempt at real estate redevelopment of the White House in 1814.

Thank you for all the congratulations everyone!!!!

Pete Hegseth publicly promised to execute Iranian prisoners of war. If that’s what happens to these American pilots, he will share the blame

@kelsapellettiere.com has informed me there is a space launch today. We really are back in the 70s.

In Cajun country, this administration’s immigration policy has hit a nerve. “Our ancestors would roll over in their graves to see Cajuns supporting mass deportation,” says Dawkins. “It goes against our culture, our values.” Disgraceful that the governor is an ACADIAN. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

jacobins: no kings! jacobites: only kings! legitimists: only anointed kings! orléanists: only kings operating within a liberal constitutionalist framework bonapartists: you know, i could be better than any king….

Major General Randy Manner, who served for over 35 years in the U.S. Army before retiring, expresses concerns that certain rhetoric could negatively impact the safety of military troops.

Donald's stupidity is only exceeded by his racism.

Over eight million Americans took to the streets today, which makes No Kings 3 the biggest single day of protest in the history of our country. #NoKings

Enormous crowd forming in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for No Kings! 💕

Fighting fascism on my off day. #nokings #nokingsday

Scale of Hegseth purge of Black and female officers: "NPR has also learned that a Black colonel and a female colonel from another branch of the military were taken off the promotion list .... This would bring the total to at least six promotions blocked by Hegseth." www.npr.org/2026/03/27/n...

Happy #NoKings Day! Go kick some good trouble ass!

Go make some good trouble today. 💚

Having massive FOMO seeing my friends having fun at #SMH2026. 🥲

Robert E. Lee got his ass beat at Gettysburg by a professor of rhetoric and oratory from Bowdoin College and generations of reactionary fantasists have died mad about it.

BRENNAN: When the president says he's going to bomb civilians energy infrastructure in Iran, is he going to bomb a nuclear power plant? UN AMBASSADOR MIKE WALTZ: Well, I would never take anything oft the table for the president

This is what happens when you elect a clown and his circus to the Oval Office. This is not going to end well for the US. Not to mention the threat of a terrorist attack on US soil is guaranteed in the near future.

Wut.

We should have empathy for the man who has never displayed an ounce of empathy in his life? Man, this smug bootlicker will say anything.

Trump: “If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

"Regardless of who's in office if they make promises, they'd better keep them. We've been lied to and we get upset." MS NOW airs compilation of Maga voters and Independents complaining about Trump's handling of gas, Venezuela, immigration and campaign promises.

We've become so used to archaeological discovery these days that some may take this for granted, but the fact that we can directly view preserved fingerprints of human individuals that lived & died ~15,000 years in the past is pretty staggering. 👇🧪

All the video clips of her are from the 60s but to really hear her influence on rock & roll listen to her recordings from the 40s. I think this one is from 1941 and that sounds like a rock & roll guitar solo to me even if the rest of the song doesn’t.

Oswald Mosley married Diana Mitford in 1936 at the home of Joseph Goebbels, with Adolf Hitler as guest of honor. After the war he was the forerunner in what would become known as Holocaust denial. Only a modern-day neo-Nazi could say Mosley was “one of Britains Great War heroes”.

Academia be like, “The beatings will continue until morale improves.”

NARA filled with a bunch of furious archivists and librarians going scorched earth in the survey.

I have so much trauma with graduate school that I can’t talk about publicly because “professionalism” but the toxic shit I’ve experienced in a variety of academic settings since 2018 is exhausting.

I have a defense date but I’m not excited because I will only have four days to address any feedback I get and turn it into the graduate school. At least I’m on the home stretch to finally be fucking done.

Why are we printing a coin with an angry Pat Sajak with a bad toupee on the front?
