Wrote an article on letters sent to scientist Alfred Kinsey c.1948-58, and am very excited to be publishing it with @TCBHJournal. Letters written by ordinary people to a celebrity sexologist turn out to be a deeply earnest, completely weird joy

@theglamacademic Vehicle rental in the us is such an absolute scam

[Ruby Ray Daily @RubyRay]

@theglamacademic A nightmare. How did this even happen?? I'm so sorry! A total nightmare

[Ruby Ray Daily @RubyRay]

@theglamacademic I’m so sorry

[Sarah Lazarus @sarahclazarus]

bipartisanship is not that hard. whenever I want to do something I just ask the worst person I’ve ever met to sign off on it. if he says no and tries to kill me, I respect that

@vulture If a boy with puffy hair and a hatchback growled at myself and my bros I feel like we would be MORE antagonized..?

[Modern British History Workshop Series @WorkshopModern]

I think ppl mistake “eat the rich” with “eat anyone who has disposable income” lol

Idc if someone hires a personal chef or someone to clean. I do care if someone owns a massive corporation, underpays employees, doesnt pay taxes, bribes politicians, etc etc

@theglamacademic I too manslaughter plants

I think “signed out from JSTOR” should be the gentle euphemism for when historians pass away 👼

[Hannah E. Palsa, ABD @HannahPalsa]

hi. I am a historian who would deeply appreciate to be stayed logged in forever on JSTOR unless I sign out.

[Ruby Ray Daily @RubyRay]

@theglamacademic PLEASE. PLEASE UNIVERSE, GIVE US THIS 🙏

[Ruby Ray Daily @RubyRay]

@theglamacademic Oh my GOD it’s the same for me and I’ve never been in Sacramento in my life. It’s boring and sort of unpleasant and overly familiar

[Ruby Ray Daily @RubyRay]

You have to send hahahahahas of different lengths or it will seem fake

@RottenInDenmark It’s cop apologia porn and there is a LOT of it. I mean, at my grandmas house I’m *amazed* to realize that I’ve clocked 5-6 different police dramas in one day!

[Ruby Ray Daily @RubyRay]

@RottenInDenmark I think the stream of cop shows on basic tv channels (ABC, etc) feed some of my family member’s most basic, and toxic world views. That cops are good, that there is no racism if there are token “good” black characters, that “justice” is served via prison sentences

My entire experience as a first-gen student

@hmchaskin Jesus Christ. What an actual nightmare ☹️
