Hey @histodons sometimes we #histodom types meet in real life. Had the honor of meeting my Twitter/Mastodon bestie and author of my favorite book on The Bank War and the Partisan Press, @NorCallover

We ate crepes at Sacramento''s legendary Danielle's Creperie and talked about the state of the academy and why NorCal is the best!

10/10 recommend

I have nearly finished my first #bot — And Old English bot. It will give you random Old English words if you ask it and each day it will put out an old English word of the day.

Considering that is my superpower (knowing Old English) that is where I thought I would start.

I stumbled across the story of William Maybury by chance, but he has never truly left me. William Maybury's suicide at just 18 is a heart-breaking piece of Coalbrookdale's history. I have written the following article in an attempt to convey such loss. I truly believe William deserves to be remembered.💚
