The thing I love about medieval dragons in European manuscripts is that so many of the drawings are smol and cute. This is a silly #MedievalTwitter thread of smol, adorable dragons.

Back to work again because I’m about 2 full days behind, despite working overtime including two days over 12 hours every week *as a regular thing*; & it has to be done by Monday morning. And this is in a place with labour laws & workers’ & human rights. #CovidCampus #AcademicLife https://t.co/iCRtzfmqRw

I’m planning to include a “reading week” in courses I’m teaching in the fall. It won’t technically be a “fall break.” It will, as its name suggests, be a week of reading (and listening, watching, etc.). Thinking about something like a reading group / book club / learning circle.

Go to university. Do an Arts degree. Learn to interpret the anti-intellectual, anti-expertise discourse of our times. Understand its connections to the collapse of democratic society & the concept of the public good, & the rise of fake news. [Also read as many books as you like.] pic.twitter.com/xqSiPrzBit
