Interesting to see the mass exodus over to Bluesky over the last few days. So many smart, funny, thoughtful folks over there, who I’ve missed in my feed — the antithesis of this hellsite. I’m there too. Planning on being here less.

Merry Christmas to all, except the grinch who stole a Christmas package (with my name and address on it!) accidentally left on the Belfast-Dublin train last week. Emails to @IrishRail and @Translink_NI unfort yielded nothing 😢.

It’s hard to find ways to make the blues lift - but Will & Harper did it for me this evening. A beautiful film, and just what I needed right now ❤️.

A grim, dark day as an American in Ireland — but I’m thankful for the kindness of my BAs, when I got choked up during my lecture on Weimar art & fascism; for the chocolate and condolences shared by colleagues and students; and for the resilience of US friends and family 💔.
