I have a “new to me” phone and I’m impressed with myself because I discovered the correct bits to press in order to post on the gram again. I’m doing embroidery! #snakesonacoif… https://t.co/VwMySKLX8p

As of last week, over 200 children in detention near the border are still separated from their families. It's been over 100 days since the deadline for the administration to reunite them.

The new Netflix movie 'Outlaw King' is much better than I had expected. No one is wearing enough shit on their heads per usual, but I wish it were a series. EII portrayed as a homicidal psychopath..so. #netflix #edwardI #RobertTheBruce #morecomplicatedthanithought #eIIwasgay

[Erin Mattson @Erinjune24]

@_BecauseWineNot Yes, I thought it was a mockumentary. How is it not fake?! #empiregamesisajoke

[Erin Mattson @Erinjune24]

@landwarsinasia @netflix I started watching #empiregames and thought it was a brilliant send-up of those shitty History Channel documentaries. How is it not satire? SO BAD!

[Erin Mattson @Erinjune24]

Hi #Netflix I don't understand why #empiregames isn't satire. If it were, it would be really clever! Those shitty #historychannel documentaries are unwatchable! Am I the only one who is catching this, or is it #reallythatbad ?

I spent all day working on my stand-up routine in my head at work. I now have some jokes, but will I remember them tomorrow? #ishouldwritethatdown #thesearethejokes #iamfunny

[Henry Tudor @KngHnryVIII]

Yes, Harry obvs wanted to impress his bride by having their #RoyalWedding in the chapel where I’m buried. I don’t mind being his wingman. We good-looking, ginger, second sons stick together.

@eBikeSTP I'm thinking of getting a mirror like that because I still can't turn my head properly from my neck sprain. Do you like it and use it?

This is the ideal male body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

@jrsongbird @TheRaDR I think of it as being "called in".

Can you think of anyone who's left #medievalstudies and gone on to… https://t.co/hjWWm75gqd

[Erin Mattson @Erinjune24]

@medievalpoc Look at Miranda Kaufmann's book Black Tudors. She references black pirates on English ships who were taken from Spanish and Portuguese ships where they served as slaves.

@TopographicFish It depends on how much you plan to drink.
