Hi Twitter! I’m about to be covid-quarantined in Taiwan for two weeks! To pass the time I’ll be reading the 18th-century Chinese novel “The Dream of the Red Chamber.”

@borlowchigby I think of you as someone who only loves movies set on the Upper West Side and up, but if there's one Brooklyn Heights movie for you, this is it.

@gyzyby I have a copy of Lewalski's Milton biography inscribed to "Lillian and Lou" as well as a copy of Closet Devotions inscribed to the Duke LGBT center.

@gyzyby more seriously, there's a good range among recent students of Jean: Musa (short and confident), Andras (heavily footnoted and smart), Christine (chatty, witty, and brilliant)

I highly recommend this article which might seem to be about Taiwanese modernism but is really all about the history of lesbians riding on bicycles together

@borlowchigby be careful with what you take out of the pocket of Greg's overcoat.

@stewdust Laura Doyle's Inter-Imperiality. Actually not a good model for what or how we can write early in our careers, but inspiring in the ambition it brings to the project of literary criticism.

@borlowchigby you really are the sophonisba anguissola of the 21st century Laura.

@gyzyby I hadn’t heard of the Harvey, but I’m very intrigued by the linkage of Deng with Reagan and Thatcher - how is it?!?

@borlowchigby oh man, the man loves feet.

@henrikrpaulsson what I love is how all of a sudden the computer graphics and the helmet styles are from 1977 instead of 2015!!!!

@gyzyby No fun was had. All of my conversations were about how sad we were that you weren’t there.
