I just got back from Japan, and I ran into Tadao Ando in Osaka mostly by accident.

If you're a US historian who'd like to do this but are unfamiliar with the process, hit me up & I'll help you identify your target publication, write your pitch, & get your piece into that sweet, sweet 600-750 word range. (Pro bono in case that wasn't clear). It's my literal job & I'd love to help.

More than 130,000 government pages have gone dark in a purge that one scientist likened to a “digital book burning.” A group of librarians and archivists is fighting back.

I use signal. You should use signal. Top US government officials should not use signal. Don't spread panic or misinformation. Signal is still the best general comms tool for journalists, protestors, activists, organizers, and vulnerable people.

Just thinking about what the US looked like before the EPA existed

submitted 108 days ago • 697 comments

In 1971, shortly after the EPA was founded, the agency commissioned dozens of photographers to document environmental issues and scenes across the U.S. The "DOCUMERICA" project captured pollution, urban decay, conservation efforts, and everyday American culture.

This unassuming building is where DOS was born. In 1980, Tim Paterson created QDOS here, which Microsoft bought and turned into MS-DOS—the foundation for Windows which powered 76% of the world's computers. Added it to the historic places inventory. #techhistory #history #historicpreservation

Earlier today the LA Times had AI-generated counterpoints to a column from @gustavoarellano.bsky.social. His piece argued that Anaheim, the city he grew up in, should not forget its KKK past. The AI "well, actually"-ed the KKK. It has since been taken off the piece. www.latimes.com/california/s...

I am reading Seattle's historic context study and it is fabulous. We need so much more of this. But what is rocking my world is how they went about crafting their land acknowledgement as the foundation for this study. This is how the work is done. www.seattle.gov/neighborhood...

I just learned that smiling airplanes were a REAL thing! Pacific Southwest Airlines was an airline that had put smiles on their planes.

Never noticed the cute little details on this building in Mo'ili'ili. I've missed these urban Honolulu bits and bobs. Sad, the tile seems to have been painted out and the decorative screen got an ac put in it.
