Small thread: It's hard to remember the sheer inaccessibility of things in that age before the internet -- the document dives in research libraries or organizational collections, the snail-mail letters of queries and hope-against-hope that someone else might have what you aren't sure exists...

One of the ways Depp's PR blitz against Amber Heard was so effective was in how it totally isolated her by making any association with her, even from her friends, seem totally toxic. So, "sources" claiming Taylor Swift is now distancing herself from Blake Lively reminds me a lot of that.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

Only in New Orleans do you find a copy of @wendellpierce.bsky.social’s wonderful post-Katrina memoir at a bookshop run by the nephew of local jazz legend Deacon John Moore (who played Pierce’s teacher Danny on Treme). Like @audacityofdespair.bsky.social himself penned the scene.
