“Christian nationalism destroys both theology and patriotism, but Alberta pulls those elements apart and, in doing so, restores each to its own separate majesty.”

I think this, from @TimAlberta, is the most important book in America right now.

@MarcDuvoisin @emilieeaton “It was my tune.”

Really tender story.

“Heaven help the sailors, their wives and their little ones…”

Commissioned @MatthewTeague to review @DavidGrann and the piece included a quote from Herman Melville.

My job literally doesn't get much better than that.

@perfumedpelt @AiBreakfast I use an app that deletes old tweets after a while, although sometimes it’s sporadic. I tend to view Twitter as a conversation that comes and goes, instead of any archival thing.

Thanks for remembering that oldie, though! Ha

This is a very generous assessment of my story from @TheAtlantic. But worth mentioning, on the death of the spy at its heart:

@SStossel @CaitlinPacific Scott, last weekend was the sickest I’ve ever been. It only last a night, but it felt like weeks.

Norovirus. I wasn’t ready.

Some personal news.

Big mistake, I suspect. Huge

[Matthew Teague @MatthewTeague]

@JosiahHawthorne @CarlosAlett @profsamperry Thanks!

@MahtabRD Classic, important movies! How did they move you?

[Matthew Teague @MatthewTeague]

@mkarolian @niemanfdn @craftdocs I like Craft. An app called Notion is good but feels clunkier and more data-focused — tables and such — where Craft has a better UI and feels more… narrative, I guess.

Both employ something called backlinking, which allows you to essentially build a personal Wikipedia

[Matthew Teague @MatthewTeague]

@mkarolian @niemanfdn Have you checked out some of the newer, more flexible apps? I use @craftdocs and love it

[Matthew Teague @MatthewTeague]

@_dogberry_ Excellent. How did those shape you? Sense of humor?

[Matthew Teague @MatthewTeague]

@TomMcTague @TheAtlantic @unherd @freddiesayers @Chattysalerton @jacobfuredi Just this morning I heard @holland_tom mention you on Rest of History, and felt a pang of professional envy. Now you’re leaving for Unherd!

Congratulations, Tom.
