1990s culture wars: We’re cancelling the Enola Gay exhibit bc veterans and historians can’t agree whether we should celebrate its role in ending WWII or critically assess the decision to use nuclear weapons 2020s culture wars: We’re cancelling the Enola Gay bc “gay” is a no-no word

It’s happening! I ordered my #LittleFreeLibrary sign tonight and am looking up options for posts and exterior paint. Am also soliciting book-loving quotes to adhere to the sides of the library. What is your favorite quote about reading? 📚 🤓

Am beginning to wonder what will take me out first: H1N1, a constant blitz of wild executive orders, or heartbreak over human rights violations.

Spent good time this weekend with people I love instead of grading papers. No regrets.

Almost a full pack! They’re joining quickly. If you don’t see your rep or senator, email them to tell them they need to join. In a country being overtaken by tech bros, we need our MoCs to get with the program. And make sure to comment on their posts. We want them to fight. go.bsky.app/2kYA5bv

I just subscribed to 5 Calls Newsletter! buttondown.com/5calls An easy way to call your representatives and make your voice heard.

Read, share, act.

I called OH Senators Husted & Moreno at their Congressional offices and both have voicemail that is so full they can’t accept any more. I left email messages for both of them online. Please, make your voice heard while we still can. U.S. Capitol switchboard: 202-224-3121.

I’ll miss you, coffee. www.cnn.com/2025/01/26/p...

Finally catching up on work after a tsunami of a semester and somehow I caught a stomach bug. Helpful for making me stay home, I guess.

#LittleFreeLibrary update! One of the members of my Buy Nothing group on the Zuck app had a brand new LFL that just needs a coat of paint. Will finish it up, add some love, and install in the spring. Am ridiculously excited.. 😍

My department is looking for a one-year Visiting Assistant Professor in Art Education to start in Fall 2025. #ohiostate #academicthreads #arteducation #phd osu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/OSUCareers/j...
