Just deleted around 2K-3K of photos of manuscripts off my cloud I had accumulated over the past year (project completed so don’t worry). Whyyyyy. It was taking up so much data 😥 I really need to invest into a harddrive because the day all my clouds accounts go bust I am doomed.

So for all the early modernists out there, I *think* I've made an early modern feed that should pick up the #earlymodern #reformazing #nuntastic #monkabulous hashtags from Twitter. Happy to add more. https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:gl7l32ehzipf7u5lvwxgqurt/feed/early-modern

So excited to pay a visit to Harvard Library’s Preservation lab today to see their current work on an amazing unfinished Shahnama mss., and an 11th c. Georgian book with original woven binding! Conservators make magic w/tech & know-how & a truly heroic amount of legwork, I am in awe!!
