Getting reports that he was a bandit AND a heartbreaker

Utterly and completely delightful every time I encounter a woman's signature with "her book" in an 18th-century manuscript.

CW: take care with yourself because this deals frankly with death and grief and makes mention of tragic passings, mutilation, and viscera (not luridly, mind) But I found this to be an extraordinarily thoughtful and humane piece of writing to begin the day. harpers.org/archive/2026...

There was something oddly sweet about seeing the exact same group of folks on the trains going to Boston from Providence and back last night for the Sox game. Like we all went on a field trip together.

I love Anthony Benezet for a whole host of reasons. But the least serious reason I love him is for his writings specifically on clothing. It can never be "idk the outfit is a bit much, no?" It has to be "letting your clothes trail along the floor is an act of rebellion against God." 💀

The WC has just made me all the more excited for the next Rhode Island FC home game. I am willing and able to pledge my lifelong undying loyalty to them having now attended one (1) game!

She’s available as a free agent! #momager

this will be my one and only “founders“ post: Benjamin Franklin would have hosted a MEAN Real Housewives reunion special.

resetting my nervous system before afternoon in the reading room by watching the game on my phone and shouting OH MY GOD at my desk

you ever read an 18th-century manuscript sermon and just think "oh....your parish didn't like you, huh?"

I had chest pain for the last 10 laps, LET’S GOOOOOOO

Would you believe me if I said that while I think the dissertation writing and accompanying analysis is rough and incomplete, upon further work with the material I am confirming that I did, in fact, have a kernel of an idea in there? 💀

coming back to this because I know, deep in my soul, that the second I write in an article draft that the documents I need were most likely destroyed when 🔽 set the court house on fire, THAT is the second that I'm going to stumble across the wills like seven counties over because someone saved them
