As an academic, this may be the most relatable thing I've ever seen...

And here is what it sounded like…

A special thanks to everyone that came out to our Arendt conference… It was *SO* terrific… especially the way we closed it off: with a brilliant Jazz performance by Joris Roelofs…

That’s right, we turned @polscileiden.bsky.social into a jazz bar!!!!

I have a piece about how we define borders (and problematic assumptions that get baked in). Now #openaccess.

Hey Bluesky!

Here is my year in reading #2024.

Rules: just “literature” broadly construed (novels, essays, poetry, narrative nonfiction, etc); only non-work books (so no philosophy or politics); only completed works (cover to cover); some re-reads.

Was a good year! 🤓How was yours?!?!?!

Hey Bluesky!

My book #ThePicnic was named one of the best books of 2024 by critics in the @nrc.nl (One of the leading newspapers in the Netherlands).

And in print! (pic attached)...
