Hi y'all! I should probably do an intro. I'm Cee (she/her), an independent social historian in the American South. I study medieval Britain, the American colonial period, World War I, and the history of death & mourning. I do living history as an 18th-century cannoneer and needleworker. 🧵

A new federal directive by Mehmet Oz allows the sharing of Medicaid applicant data with DHS effective immediately, rescinding previous “interagency integrity” firewalls. This forces mixed-status families into an impossible calculus: access life-saving medical care or remain invisible to enforcement.
NEWS: Medicaid Data Now Flows to ICE
Effective today, a new federal directive allows immigration enforcement to access state healthcare enrollment data, TPS ends for thousands of Burmese war refugees, plus Kristi Noem explainer video.

Someone really had fun with metal threads and wire here. Not content with a shiny dress, crown and sceptre, this very regal Esther has two attendants holding up her train and a parasol in a c. 1640 embroidery at The Holburne Museum, Bath.

Any Dropout TV or Game Changer fans looking for a cute little treat?
I sold these Game Changer earrings at a Dropout Tribute show and these are the 6 pairs.
Would love to see them go to fans, so happy to sell them for $5 plus shipping (probably cost of a regular stamp?)

Libraries pay for books. There are 17k public libraries in the US. 90k school libraries. If even a small percent of those each buy a book, that helps out considerably financially.
In Canada, libraries pay the author PER BORROW.
A lot of books on internet archives were stolen to begin with...
