Today, instead of mapping, I've been reproducing lines of medieval text. A bit of a change, and kinda fun.

I realized I might have to pick up some Markus Rediker but I will have to do that after I finish re-reading Treasure Neverland: Real and Imaginary Pirates before I get into theory.

One thing I have always found odd with the alternative/psuedos/conspiracy believers is their support for the world's richest man, as if he is working and fighting 'against the system'. Interestingly, one conspiracist has held on to his anti-establishment principles...will others follow?

I'm glad for this write up because of how I have struggled to communicate with others that non-white latinos do vote for republicans and conservatives or may go conservative for 1 issue on a ballot. Last year my neighboorhood was heavily divided in voting for republican candidates.

Lent is coming next week which means friday fish specials in many of my favorite Mexican places. Maybe I will get some empanadas and tortitas de camaron on my drive back home. There are foods I am highly nostalgic for.

I see these hot takes: "Academia had it coming for [reasons]." The problem with this is that unless you can explain why immigrants, LGBTQ people, minorities, teachers, federal employees, aid workers, health professionals, etc., ALSO had it coming, you'll end up short of a parsimonious explanation.

Modern men are often so confused about what women really want but our ancestors knew! It's easy. Just wear a waistcoat, tie, have a snazzy haircut, put on an apron AND DO THE BLOOMIN' DISHES! Pardon my French.

The deeper I go into the history of witchcraft the more anti-catholic protestants, feminists, anti-christian pagans, and antisemitism tend to intersect when it comes the pervasive myths about the witch hunts and the 'dark ages'. Beware of things you hear as fact online.

I saw a lot of people reposting this image, which looks like a poorly thought through advert for the new film version of the Odyssey. But, as has since become apparent, it was not an authentic film poster, so let's do a quick thread on how to check. 1/5
