Historian friends: do you have favorite books or articles that really grapple with the constraints and biases of the archive? I'm reading Stoler, Fuentes... What else?

The producer of Ben Shapiro's show reached out to me to see if I'd like to discuss Ben's attire on his show. Like with Piers Morgan, since Ben invited feedback, I will do a thread comparing him to a menswear icon—this time, Ralph Lauren's Polo Bear. 🧵

everyone “understands” that you’re autistic… until you need some understanding. everyone can acknowledge, “oh, yes, that person is autistic”… until you behave in a slightly autistic way and they ask, “why are you being like that?”

19 fiction books by Palestinian authors: novels, short stories, and folktales. 1. My First and Only Love (2021) by Shahar Khalifeh. Nidal, an elderly exile, recounts the story when the 1948 Nakba scattered her family; a story of love and resistance from the eyes of a young girl.

Remember to check your kids’ Halloween candy carefully this year! I just found 80mg of estradiol in this KitKat bar. Stay safe out there.

There's a French slang called verlan where you invert a word's syllables (e.g. bonjour becomes "jourbon" and français becomes "céfran"). Pageviews for the verlan Wikipedia article SPIKED when a French Barbie poster used verlan to say "She's everything. He only knows how to fuck"

A fun part of getting older as a woman is hitting the age these men were when they knew you and your friends and realizing how childlike and fragile girls that age seem to you now. Lends a special horror to it.

I had a friend in high school (we would have been around 16) who was proudly dating a guy who said he was in graduate school. I cannot tell you how many times I think about that, and her, and him.

Just once I want to read a summer romance novel about someone who quits their city job to run a lighthouse in a remote location only to realize the single ship they’re monitoring is the one that carries souls to the underworld and hey, the captain is kind of hot

Constantly hearing that sandwich shops near offices etc are suffering because of people who work from home, but I put it to you, Pret, that you are suffering because a sandwich and a flavoured water from your shop costs nine pounds

My mind is melting at the realization that (the male) half of society apparently thought we were playing happy homemaker with our Barbies all this time💀 YMMV and my friends’ Barbies lived SUPER varied lives but… that wasn’t one of them

it's funny to me that in every hobby, spending more can mean getting a more durable item, but after a certain point, the thing is super delicate. and if you ask hobbyists why an expensive item is such a hassle to maintain, they look at you funny and say, "that's the joy"

okay idk if this is an autism thing but is anyone else weird about the word “please.” like. please has WEIGHT. it has a TIME and PLACE in formal, genuinely inconveniencing requests. “could you pass the salt please” sir I am not the president just tell me you want it

New feature! ✨ You can now flip images horizontally while transcribing. Use it to read reversed text or to make a cephalopod dance. 🦑
