I feel like this is an on-brand anecdote for my followers: I checked out an atlas from the library that apparently hadn't been used much since the '80s, and, unbeknownst to me, ended up with a bright yellow sticker that says "OVER SIZE" on my pants for the rest of the day

New: Josseli Barnica is one of at least two pregnant Texas women who died after doctors delayed emergency care. She'd told her husband that the medical team said it couldn't act until the fetal heartbeat stopped. propub.li/4f2ILsh
WE'RE BACK! Check out our new episode, I am so excited!!
The Season of Revolution has begun! In this episode, @MaeveKane joins @kig7w to discuss Konwatsi'tsiaienni Molly Brant’s pivotal diplomatic efforts to maintain the Mohawk’s alliance with the British and the turmoil Indigenous women like her experienced. r2studios.org/show/your-most…
See? This is the danger of throwing “felon” around too loosely. Now we have liberals using felony employment as a joke. Dislike Trump all you want, but joking about felony employment isn’t it.
The Biden economy is so strong businesses are willing to hire convicted felons out on bail.
It's been a while since I've come across one of these, but the 18th century name of the day is PLUNKETT HOLT
Sigh…I have to tap the “Stop Blaming Black Men” sign again. No other group of men in this country will be as strong of a voting block for the Democratic Party nominee than Black men. In fact, Black men will be more Dem than any group of *women* other than Black women. Stop it!
Despite the claims made before the election, Black men showed up more in 2020 than in 2016. Black women’s support for Trump increased slightly. Neither of these facts should distract from the fact that Black America deserves to be the focus of some policies given their support.
Happy birthday to the legendary Art Blakey, who was born on this day in 1919! Blakey made a name for himself in the 40s in the big bands of Fletcher Henderson and Billy Eckstine. He then worked with bebop musicians Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, and Dizzy Gillespie. In the…
The google results for trying to confirm the correct author of a quote right now are so bad I could throw myself into the ocean
They're letting me blog again, everybody watch out
A picture may be worth a thousand words, but sometimes you need to pay attention to what those words are actually saying. A new blog by Encyclopedia Virginia's media editor Katy Gehred talks about our new series of entries about urban renewal. loom.ly/Q5aJaIo

Insane manifest destiny vibes aside, sometimes these super long old book titles feel like those instagram posts with paragraph long SEO-optimized hashtags

Men, what would y'all do as the First Husband of the United States?
To all those parents of children born hundreds of years ago who chose to give their offspring distinctive middle names, especially those who gave them their mother's birth surname as a middle name, I thank you from the bottom of my heart...
One day of tragedy used to destroy hundreds of millions of lives over two decades. If our rage were allowed it would crumble mountains with its screams. 1. An anti-war protest sign, at a rally in DC, in 2005. This image was taken one month after the devastation of Hurricane…
If you're appalled by the anti-Haitian and racist trash that Vance, Musk, and Cruz are spewing, do something that will support the community that's being targeted & terrorized by them. Give $ to orgs like the Haitian community center in Springfield, OH: haitiansupportcenterspringfield.org
The rules are complex enough that no one can ever be fully in compliance. That’s our secret power. When your time comes, we know you are out of compliance.
