Where the eff it is even? The Gas South Arena in Duluth Ga, a place that has NO connection whatsoever to #Emory, unless perhaps a member of the board is with Gas South or the Arena. @emoryaaup.bsky.social

Watching @cnn.com in France. The panel is insufferable. Sadly my only option here in the apartment other than Faux News. #CNN
CNN TV screen with a series of men and women talking around a glass table on one side and images of men and women waiting to vote in today’s elections in another image.

Literally. Like this guy. Peed himself. #ICE #DHS
Two photos. Left one is of an ICE agent shooting tear gas at protestors while a person in a dinosaur costume walks behind him. A cloud of smoke surrounds the protestors. The photo on the left is a close up of the ICE agent’s crotch and a wet spot showing that he has clearly peed on himself.

@sarahboardman.bsky.social on Threads. "Winter construction for a secure building is questionable at best." Jan-Feb snow, 40" of rain/yr, esp Jan, when should pour concrete. Doubts it will be built, all grift. No security. Her company is "fanatical" abt timing. #EpsteinBallroom #WhiteHouse

1 of the 1000 things that worry me about the White House demolition/construction project. #EpsteinBallroom #WhiteHouse
*takes long drag from cigarette* That man ain't building a ballroom. The Presidential Emergency Operations Center is underneath the East Wing. They're expanding and renovating the President's underground bunker (Führerbunker). Where did the Nazis flee when the Third Reich collapsed? Argentina. That $40 billion payment to Argentina while the US government is shutdown is a security deposit. They're ensuring they'll have a place to escape once shit hits the fan. *removes tin foil hat*

Feels like the team writing it, producing it, had at least all 3 seasons figured out from the beginning. Just finished it, ready for Season 4. So coherent. I remain #TeamDennison. Channeling Steven on The Summer I Turned Pretty: "Who *the hell* is Callum Ellis?" #TheDiplomat @netflix.com

Put together this little compilation, trying to be sure not to get faces in it & asking permission. #NoKings #Paris was such fun.

As an historian of the French Revolution, I am not so sure about this, but understand the sentiment. No Kings Paris. #NoKings @indivisible.org #FrenchHistory #skystorians

Some photos from today’s No Kings Paris. Great mood—festive but serious about the state of tihngs. Was careful not to take photos of faces and to ask permission to post. #NoKings #Paris #IndivisibleParis
A dancing green frog in a costume like those in Portland. A sign saying in both french and English, The Frogs in Paris support the frogs of Portland. A sign saying So MUCH WRONG so little cardboard and listing many of Trump’s crimes. A sign with joined hands of many races and the Statue of Liberty saying America was built by immigrants.

Some of the last blooms of summer here in Atlanta. My back nursery area where I dump things as I ponder where to put them eventually. Blue mist flower (invasive, needs to go), white Carolina Aster, & Blue Blaze flowers.

Another video from the Emory Midtown hospital atrium (not sure what happened to the alt text on the previous one). Made a long day of tests much better.

A moment of grace in a long day at 2 Emory hospitals for tests (nothing serious, I think). Emory Midtown was celebrating Hispanic Heritage month. Tasty empanadas & then this happened. Audience was singing & dancing in the busy atrium. Love my city. #EmoryHealthcare

#hatm NOT a 1963 bra, am I right, ladies? Too many knits overall in the wardrobes in this movie.
Torsos of a man and woman. His chest is bare. She is wearing a white lace bra.

Yeah. And no one was dressing like this in 1963. #hatm

#hatm fondly remembering the ca 1963 transistor radio that I got for my birthday about 1963. Just like this one. So far the music is just what 7 yr old me was obsessed with.

News from #Emory. The campus @aaup.org chapter has a BSky account. @emoryaaup.bsky.social
Lots going on at Emory & in the wider academic world. Give them a follow.

The world has been tooo much lately (well, for over a decade). I am going to eat some dessert and watch the last few mins of the finale in a loop for a little while. #tsitp

Utter, joyous mayhem. Love walking around in it for miles (thru crowds, competing music groups & genres, lots of drunkenness....). Groups start staging their stuff often by June 19 & def by June 20. So the idea that they were wandering around Paris June 19 & NOT seeing anything was ODD. #tsitp

Was really struck by the palette of the K Drama Misty on Netflix.
Man's face and shoulders with dark hair and black and white tweed jacket against a blurred background with blues, aquas, and some red flowers at the bottom. Woman with chin length dark hair, red lips, and an expensive sheer blouse in a black, cream, and royal blue floral print. She is staring at a man (we only see him from the back.) They are in a parking garage with a blurred black luxury car behind her.
