I'm emerging from my self-imposed social media absence to join everyone in the #DH community in thanking @brettbobley.bsky.social for all of his selfless work and dedication. I personally can't thank him enough both for his kindness, generosity, and support over the years. #ThanksBrett

Every month, the @msuanthropology.bsky.social archaeologists go out for lunch. Tomorrow is our last lunch of the semester. It's a really nice way to continue to rebuild our community after years of it really just being @staceylcamp.bsky.social and I.
