My new building for the next few weeks. Being from a small regional, the imposter syndrome is kicking in. Thankful to @IASH_Edinburgh and @AmPhilSociety for valuing my research.

@PlayStation Since my @PlayStation account is 20 years old, I can’t get it back after it was hacked. Please make sense of this. With the loss of physical disc, I’m not sure what this means for customers.

@briancasey123 It was great seeing you too.

Had a fantastic time at #HSPconference. It was great to hear so many excellent papers dealing with Scottish politics.

@CraigGaIIagher This is a f***ing disgrace! My son is getting a good taste of what it means to support Scotland.

@JasonKander I have been saying the same thing all night.

Looking for some help: Please list in the comments below history departments in the US that do NOT have an active historian of Britain (any period)?

Thank you!!!

@FrankCogliano Congrats!

@dsmerdon Interesting, I had a similar experience where it made up a reference when I asked it to cite sources.

[Kyle Thompson, PhD 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @mkthompson37]

ChatGPT wrote an interesting paper, but once I enquirered about sources it acted like a typical undergrad who was surprised I asked. Anyway, if anyone finds this article please let me know. I'm so confused on how ChatGPT just made up a source. #twitterhistorians

France and Morocco match tomorrow and there’s lots of talk about colonialism. But no talk about have the French colonial government used football as a nation building exercise in Morocco from 1937 onwards…

@redhistorian @rob__waters @caitbeaumont @ProfJTomlinson Thanks for all the suggestions.

[Kyle Thompson, PhD 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @mkthompson37]

I'm teaching a graduate seminar on British post-war politics in the spring and I'm seeking suggestions for readings. I perviously focused on the UK's relationship with Europe and am happy to do the same. I particularly like @redhistorian, Yes to Europe! Thanks for any help.

Devastated for my fellow academics in Kansas.

[Douglas L. Allen @dallen_critgeo]

I'm being dismissed from my Tenure Track position at Emporia State University in May. The university used a process approved by KBOR that bypassed faculty shared governance to eliminate numerous tenured, TT, and non-TT faculty.

I think it’s safe to say I watch too much #Seinfeld. My wife asked our 5yo to put his shoes on and he responded by yelling serenity now!
