Witchboard (2024)
A stolen museum artifact unleashes a supernatural chain of events, providing ample material for analysis. We examine the artifact, hidden practices, witchcraft, and history.

Iced coffee this, iced coffee that. No. To show your true commitment to the field, you'll need at least two other beverages with you. The three drink rule is industry standard. #icedcoffee

I really hate that Meta made their AI Muse character adorable. It pisses me off. Oh! And they kicked Muse (the band) off their own account so they (Meta/Muse) could have the username. #meta #muse #ai #maaaaaanidontlikethis

Currently writing a “Museums in Media” piece about this film. There’s just barely enough meat on the bones to approach it from a museum angle. Stay tuned! 🩸⚜️ #museumsinmedia #museumshift #museumblogger

If your business or workplace can't survive someone taking off for medical leave – idgaf what kind – that's a management and hiring issue.

This is wild because it's a scam that actually tried to showcase legitimacy (through the previous, lackluster residency). I'm so curious as to what actually went down but, as per usual, the offending party is silent. #artworld #emergingartists

This is truly heartbreaking. Dolly Parton was an extraordinary person and an irreplaceable champion of the working class. We are a better country because of her.

GUYS! How did we lose “DON’T FEED THE TROLLS”? Not every hateful comment deserves a response. Engagement is often the reward they’re seeking as it amplifies and normalizes the behavior. Ignore them. #internetdiscourse

I feel like if you're a company that's heavily involved with the arts, museums, etc., your hold music should be fun. I don't feel too strongly about it... but it was a thought I had.

Just chatting with a follower on Insta, and I’m still baffled by how museums continue to perpetuate the toxic culture we all said was going to die out as the older generations retired. Like… what is happening?!?! #museumculture

The new work place is haunted. My door will slowly close at random, I constantly hear a door closing elsewhere, and the shuffling of papers. There's never any explanation and I keep looking around and calling out to nobody. Just FYI. #ghosts #partofthejob #museums

A tale as old as time. When layoffs happen, it's always the roles that *make* the museum and promote the mission. What's also weird is: "The statement came from an outside marketing agency..." Huh? They have outside marketing agency money?

One former worker said it feels like the organization was “gutted from the inside out.”

Leaving a stressful job for a calmer one should be the easy part. Right? Not so fast. After years of chaos, recalibrating to a calmer environment takes more time than expected.
