I have to research a local place for potential national historic site listing and of course I had to find a spooky old cemetery. This assignment is suddenly very exciting.

My class assignment this week is to find a job listing in public history. I am unsurprisingly drawn to any job that involves wearing a historical costume.

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

God bless the lady who went of her way to stop at our Girl Scout cookie booth in the rain and bought TEN boxes.

I turned in my proposal for book 2. It’s historical, speculative, feminist, and a dash of Mormon weirdness. The more I research, the more excited I am.

I'm definitely turning the Mormon blog I blog at into all-Sam-blogging-about-the-church's-policies-on-undocumented-immigrants-all-the-time. And this morning is no different. Here, some (probably inadvertent) effects of its new policy on the full participation of undocumented members.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Being a Girl Scout leader is awesome. Tonight the girls made fancy Belgian liège waffles and now my kitchen smells amazing and I get a delicious dessert.

Trump does enough from the White House that’s terrifying, but what he inspires is also atrocious. The racist Patriot Front—a modern KKK—marched in Herriman, UT, yesterday, terrorizing non-white families. Especially egregious is that I’d wager many of them are currently sitting in LDS congregations.

I just realized that the new LDS hymnal omits the 2nd verse of Amazing Grace, basically removing the actual message of grace from the song. It’s so on brand it’s honestly comical.
