I went to watch the video and this is actually really terrible and deeply disrespectful to his fellow #StarTrek franchise stars, whose likenesses are used in the video without their permission — and it really makes Jeri Ryan seem like she’s just titty Gross gross gross

As someone who married into Boston rather than being born here, it's arguably problematic the degree to which I think the Yankees suck.

The problem with pre-ordering books is that when you do you don't realize you'll be a few days out from submitting your thesis when it automatically downloads to your device. Damn you, @kjcharleswriter.com! I need to write, not read 😭. Ah well, who needs a PhD, really?

13 runs in a single inning seems like a bad idea for the Sox in game one of a double, but on the other hand - sure is fun to watch.

America’s heritage is in a state of crisis. Along w/ DOGE-ing NPS, IMLS & the NEH, Trump is withholding already appropriated 2025 historic preservation funds & for 2026 wants to outright eliminate all fed funding for tribal, state, local & rural preservation & saving treasures of American history. 😡

Your child is more likely to die from measles than get beat by one of their trans peers in an athletic competition, and I wish our government's actions would reflect that.

Where did I put the microscope photos I took? In the "publication pics" folder? No, that's the OTHER mic pics. In the "thesis pics" folder? No, that's maps and historic drawings. HALP

BU has instructed me to carry my immigration documents with me at all times given "the current climate". Surely it would be quicker if immigrants like me just wore some kind of visible symbol of otherness? Because as we all know, I'm not going to be stopped by ICE , despite being an immigrant.

Agree. It's not a threat - it's already happening (see my previous 🧵 about the NPS withdrawing eligible historic districts from consideration because of political pressure) and we have to resist.

Again - being an archaeologist or archaeology/heritage org and continuing to remain silent over Israel’s continued genocide and its own weaponisation of our discipline makes you complicit. Archaeology is not an innocent bystander - it’s very much an active participant.
