the public school system should teach you how to make prosciutto
My great great uncle, James Joseph Fox is buried at Vis-en-Artois. Wave to him if you're nearby!
A powerful look at how women’s writing during the Seven Years’ War reveals the raw emotion, loss, and humanity often hidden in colonial archives. A moving reminder that behind every global conflict are intimate stories worth remembering. @tlecaque.bsky.social ageofrevolutions.com/2026/03/02/h...
every mystery of the sloppy joe revealed! i debunk its connection to ernest hemingway! we discuss the loosemeat sandwiches of iowa! the fashion movement around "sloppy joe" sweaters ca. 1940! the french concept of "nostalgia for the mud"! buttondown.com/theswordandt...
Finally, I say this as a therapist...in 1994, eating a Little Caesar's Spaghetti Bucket while listening to Pure Moods would have gotten empirically similar results to a CBT/SSRI combo
Wonderful as always to join @kawulf.bsky.social to talk about Martha Washington, the importance of doing good history, and what it takes to bring the past back to life.

Sometimes I forget to turn on the faucet in the back of my mouth and I don't sleep as well.

A 2 panel sketch disgram of a 1 meter tall pod. in the second panel, an oval section pops off and a demonic little face with short tentacles flies out, crudely drawn.
My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

i think we all need to step back and realize that peak art was made when neolithic pot in the shape of a pig was fired

In bespoke tailoring, the terms "crookening" and "straightening" are highly contested. Not all tailors agree on what these terms mean or how the adjustments should be done. But one of my tailors (Edwin DeBoise of Steed) shares his view here. Getting this right would have added many days of work.

The black wax seal on William Howe's letter to his brother, the newly minted Lord Richard Howe, on learning of the death of their older brother, George Augustus, at Ticonderoga, November 23, 1758.
A screenshot of Lala and Po from the teletubbies. The screenshot is clearly taken from someone's phone, as the borders of the tv can be seen, as well as glimpses into the apartment behind them. Po is in bed wrapped up in a blanket. The text below them reads "I know you were high at my mother-in-laws funeral..."
More screenshots from the Teletubbies. Lala seems to be upset with a terrified Po. the text below reads "Did you kill the dog? Why would you do that?!"
A third screenshot from the Teletubbies, this time the same scene as before. Po is wearing an apron while Lala seems to still be upset at him. The text below reads "You're nothing but a failure of a man."
In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies.

I can now say that my art has been exhibited at the Franklin Institute.
Chanced to see the ISS astronauts’ re-entry while jogging. Quite bright as it streaked from west to south.
I think I'm the only person not wearing Eagle clothes in the entire city. It's really weird.
Administration never had more serene countenances than at present, - they are entirely at ease about the interference of the house of Bourbon in the American rebellion, and their advices and prospects from America satisfy them entirely. A certain Great Person’s spirits are so raised, that he has just let off his potatoe diet.
