Some of the best things about #handtool #woodworking, no power required, tools are managable, they can be had at a reasonable price, little noise, indoors or out, a lot less mess. #FindingTimeToRecharge

As a conflict historian focused on propaganda and extremism, I am spending a lot of time on the newspaper industry for my last academic class in the PhD program HIUS 713 American Entrepreneurship Since 1900. Sunday will be the halfway mark for the class. Looking forward to comps and dissertation.

So, I haven't been posting much here. Why? I just kind of gave up on social media. So much crap out there. What changed?

@tinamulhall.bsky.social I'm here. ;-)

As the days get shorter and the nights longer, as the late harvest is put up for the coming winter, the season calls us to give thanks for the bounty received in harvest times. Be sure to include thanks to those who hold special places in your heart, in person if you can, in spirit if you must.

My academic areas of interest are the #IndustrialRevolution, #GildedAge, & #ProgressiveEra and the environment and technologies that enabled them & allowed them to progress; #powersystems, #transportation, & #communications — also, the #bibliographic, #preservation, & #teaching fields.

HIST 706 Digital History, I'm almost sad there are only three weeks left. This will also put a wrap on my MA in Public History.

Working on a ArcGIS mapping project this week. I am going to have fun with tool in the future.
