Didn't Nirvana or Pearl Jam cover The Entertainer in 1991, too? 😄. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsFG...

Look for clips of Robert Redford from the late 60s or the 70s wearing a sports jacket. Find a couple of similar ones today that fit you well. Done.

First they came for Religious Studies, and I did nothing. Then they came for History, and I did nothing. Then they came for Earth and Atmospheric Sciences and I...wait Earth sciences?! Even the hardcore STEM disciplines aren't safe?! Things really are bad...

Yes. Great article. And I appreciated the quotes and references to our fellow environmental historian, Paul Josephson.

I think Trump just wants a military parade with these guys. Credit where credit is due, these Army guys know how to put on a good show--lots of razzle dazzle. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKrd...

Absolutely terrible. I've watched countless American Experience programs over the years and regularly shown episodes to my students.

Maybe. Are you sure about that?

We have to destroy the DC neighborhood in order to save it, Trump added.

This seems like a fair critique presented without condescension .He carefully read Nwanevu's book and found it wanting--fair enough. And I'm devoted reader of George Packer. And David Roberts!

"For a younger generation of Americans, the concept of 'socialism'; is an empty box into which all manner of hopes and dreams may be placed" I've learned that young people have a very capacious understanding of socialism. Some of what they advocate is just ho-hum, mid-20th cent. liberalism.

One can celebrate the success of girls and young women and still be concerned about flailing boys and young men. We should want both girls and boys to do well in school and find ways to encourage more young men to go to college, and once there, ensure they succeed.

I'm a humanist and teach courses in environmental history & the env humanities. And I've experimented with all the major models. But many humanists are understandably wary of AI. Our classes are flooded with AI-written essays or essays written with little thought--thinking outsourced to AI.
