What an honour to be on the #SAA2023 #NextGenPlen with @hixonbecky, @limericklinz, & @essm714 (thank you, @ProfFarahKC)! Sincerest thanks to all who attended, asked such thoughtful questions, & came up to say hello after. It was my absolute pleasure to share that talk with you!

Hi friends! I've migrated to the sky app; come follow me there at the same handle. 🌤️

Hi early modern friends! Does anyone know whether it will be possible to sign up for/participate in seminars at both SAA and RSA in Boston this coming year, or whether we will have to choose?

[Chris Klippenstein @klipper_ship]

@GreenWill92 Descriptions like that draw such beautiful attention to fine details that we are not necessarily trained to see -- so many different fabrics and styles coming together. What a spectacle 🙂

[Chris Klippenstein @klipper_ship]

@GreenWill92 There are so many beautifully described pieces of elaborate clothing -- I'd love to see something like the "gowne of Briget appelltres of shepes Rossete donne with lace an the sleaves with a cape of velvett & A peticote of cloth layd with lace"

Early modern friends! Who's coming to #Shax24 and wants to get lunch/coffee/etc? 😎

Are you a historian? Are you able to come to Laramie, WY this month to talk about your research (expenses paid + an honorarium)? If you are interested in this exciting, madcap opportunity to help me spend a pot of money before it is lit on fire, get in touch!

As you may have already seen, Flaco the Eurasian eagle-owl has passed away. I am sad beyond words. Flaco defied the odds and made quite a life for himself in the city over the past year. Along the way he came to mean so much to so many, including me. ❤️🦉

Genuinely incredible

I made a Classical Chinese Poetry Bingo to help people recognize the common tropes and motifs.🤣 These show up frequently in the modern poetry I translate as well. Do you recognize anything from your readings or from pop culture? Tag yourself. I'm "feeling sad on a boat" lol

Your periodic reminder that less ice at the Arctic is consistent with a weaker jet stream that allows cold air to drift down into the Great Plains.

The frigid temps you're experiencing happen BECAUSE of a warming planet, not in spite of it.

Hello early modern folks! Does anyone have a recommendation for scholarship on Peele's "Edward I"? I'm coming up surprisingly empty!
