Wow. The University of Chicago, a world-class institution whose humanities faculty in the past has included Homi Bhabha & Lauren Berlant & Ralph Ellison & Hannah freaking Arendt, is getting rid of basically every graduate department involving the acknowledgment that other cultures & languages exist.

Ik heb het goed en wil dat delen. Dus stem ik links waar rechts korte termijn voor mij beter lijkt. Dat ik het goed heb, is zowel geluk als hard werken. En dat geluk en die kans gun ik ieder. Daarom moeten we de verzorgingsstaat bestendigen.Daar plukken we allen de vruchten van.

Children will always need BOOKS to help them make sense of the world. I love the idea that children's books can be bridges connecting all children, crossing all barriers, helping them to imagine a better world – and to build it, one day. #books

Wrote a little blog about some fascinating printed conclave documents I came across in the @natlibscot.bsky.social! 🗝️

Many thanks to the cataloguers of their Special Collections for documenting these objects so diligently!
CONCLAVE! 🗝️

As we await white smoke, read about some rare printed objects from early modern conclaves preserved in @natlibscot.bsky.social! In this post, USTC postdoc, @ciaokatet.bsky.social, explores blank conclave vote tallying sheets and sample ballots. #conclave2025 www.ustc.ac.uk/news/conclave
