Dang it. My old school super friendly professional knife sharpening company moved from Brooklyn to Staten Island.

Wut? you don’t think of sharpening your knives on Christmas Day?

After many years of bragging that "It's a Wonderful Life" was my answer to "what's the biggest movie you've never seen," I finally watched it at the urging of @unlawfulentries.bsky.social . Then afterwards I was too emotional, so I had to follow up with a "Die Hard" chaser. 🎄🏢🚁💥

This is not a “duel,” which suggests both sides are equally culpable, but the latest salvo in the Trump administration’s ideological war on Harvard and higher education.

We can and will count up what has happened quantitatively across many dimensions, but let's try never to lose track of the personal costs. If you are/were a federal worker, all I can say right now is I'm sorry and I believe in the value of your labor.

Wishing all our Bluesky friends a very merry Christmas. The kitchen has been quietly busy here, with a Christmas cake now baked, iced and ready for the table. Hope the day treats you kindly. 🧣🧸🎀🎄

@paulrosenberg.bsky.social I bugged my middle aged friend who had not seen It's a Wonderful Life to finally watch it. He finally did and loved it.

Possibly against my better judgement (and inspired by that recent @jamellebouie.net post), I’m gonna try making some content on TikTok / Instagram, explaining some of the cool stuff my public historian colleagues are talking about. Here’s one of them, about the 250th: www.tiktok.com/t/ZTr3dxy1q/
I’ve been helping #museums and historic sites prepare for the 250th anniversary for nearly a decade now. Lots is happening at the federal level, but far more interesting stuff is going on at the state...
