Nothing better illustrates how well the tech industry markets its mendacity than convincing people that they have managed to predict people’s needs when what they have actually done is modify people’s behavior.

So proud to share that the Viator cluster on "Early Global Insularities"@nahir.bsky.social and I co-edited was published today. We got a chance to explore the histories, archives, and literature of premodern islands with an amazing and diverse community of scholars. cmrs.ucla.edu/publications...

"Language—when it lies, when it silences truth, when it contradicts itself or cowers behind sarcasm and cruelty, when it willfully creates chaos—is transgressive."

Oh, just my musings about Dante, hope, and the labor of consolation. #booksky #medievalsky

On my 2025 reading list…
HUMANS: A MONSTROUS HISTORY is in the @ucpress.bsky.social Spring 2025 catalog (3-4)! It tells the 4,000-year story of how humans have created monsters out of one another & what these monsters tell us about humanity's present and future. 💙📚 🧪🗃 #histsci #histmed 1/2 www.ucpress.edu/about/season...

I keep trying to write something eloquent and just being tired.
History matters. Philosophy matters. Languages and literature matter. Indigenous studies matter. Arts and humanities and social sciences matter. All of them.

There is a certain sparkle to waking up early on a frosty winter morning to write as the sun rises.

As my first #bsky post, here’s a shot of my first-morning-coffee, blue-sky view. ☀️
