@lukedsimmons @ryanvisconti Or how absolutely awful they can be! We never had children’s church when I was growing up. We learned discipline—sit still, be quiet, listen. If a small child cried or made too much noise, a parent took them out to minimize disruption. Others were understanding of the situation.

Wait . . . Trump signed a Fourteen Point Plan at Versailles?!

@Skyline_Chili If only you still sold Mountain Dew . . . Bring back the Dew! Coke is fine but sucks with Skyline.

[James Fuller @JimFuller1968]

@Skyline_Chili @amazon Bring back Mountain Dew. I love Coke and I love Skyline, but they do NOT go together. I have tried but will have to bring my own beverage or not eat Skyline anymore.

@Skyline_Chili @Spotify Bring back Mountain Dew. I love Coke and I love Skyline, but they do NOT go together. I have tried but will have to bring my own beverage or not eat Skyline anymore.

@UIndy historians Krista Kinslow, Mathieu Billing, and I joined Nicole Etcheson in presenting our research at the Nineteenth Century Studies Association meeting in Louisville, Kentucky. It was fun and interesting to see how our work fit together even with different topics.

@sylverlining I am so sorry for your loss. What a long life he lived! I know you will cherish the memories you have of him.

[James Fuller @JimFuller1968]

@pataphysician But is this respect or disrespect? Would you have to hear it to know?

@SeanTrende Why not move the clocks half-an-hour and then leave them that way permanently? Split the difference . . .

@CivilWarJon @Kansas_Press @kansasjoyce @dwceditor @JonathanHafetz Excellent editors made this a fine collection of essays relevant to both Civil War Era and legal history as well as our own time. Congratulations, Jon and Stewart!

[James Fuller @JimFuller1968]

@CivilWarJon Thanks, Carl Sandburg! His biography is the source of this quote. Morton DID seem paranoid at times and badgered Lincoln with his fear and advice. But he was not always wrong. Is it paranoia if somebody is really out to get you?

Here’s a link to a YouTube interview I did with the Bill of Rights Institute on the Election of 1860.

What happens when people put their self-interest before the common good? Watch BRI’s @TWilliamsAuthor for a new Scholar Talk episode as he sits down with author and professor @JimFuller1968 to discuss the 1860 presidential election & it's significance. https://t.co/TNIEIIO43A

@jbf1755 Dickson Bruce’s And They All Sang Hallelujah: Plain-Folk Camp-Meeting Religion is an older but accessible (& brief) example of a historian using social science methodology. My students have always found it readable & it has made them think about religion & historical methods.

@CLMcWhirter And the other houses smell like . . . ingratitude?

@adamwren Holcomb is too-close-for-comfort with Rainwater syphoning off conservative voters. This is payback for his loyalty to the administration. Covid policy backlash against the governor is worrisome for Republicans who want a sweep in Pence’s home state.

[James Fuller @JimFuller1968]

@shellawish All to help the Republican incumbent governor who went from an easy landslide reelection to “better be worried” because of backlash against his Covid policies. This about helping Eric Holcomb. @adamwren
