You're "just not that into politics?" Your boss is. Your landlord is. Your insurance company is. And every day they use their political power to keep your pay low, raise your rent, and deny you coverage. Its time to get into politics. #1u

ANNOUNCEMENT! THE MIGHTY MAGNUS VIKING HOARD RAFFLE! DETAILS/LINKS Mighty Magnus’ Medicine podbean.com/media/share/pb…

Tonight, America!! 😬#GreatHeathenHunt #Vikings #Repton

Goal for this summer: seek the same level of life-giving energy and excitement in my work, my reading, my teaching, or literally ANY SINGLE THING IN MY LIFE that my 5-year-old shows when he sees Pikachu.

What’s just shocking to me it’s as if the Mueller report never happened. It is the most damning document ever written about a president. But the country isn’t going to read a 448 page document. They have lives. They need political leaders to explain it. Dems aren’t, Trump is.

Hey #medievaltwitter--just a reminder that The Lone Medievalist has put out its call for submissions for three prizes (in teaching, scholarship, and outreach)--with winners announced before the end of summer (in time for CVs & job letters going out this fall). Show 'em what you got!

Here’s a quick thread (from my writing twitter) for anyone wanting to get into medieval Norse and Irish literature.

The US political system was created with a fatal flaw. It presumed the good faith of its leaders in their conduct and in the preservation of its structures. @senatemajldr McConnell, not Trump, is the man who will be remembered for destroying America. nyti.ms/2Wc76at

The sheer cruelty of Trump's immigration policy is hard to fathom. news.yahoo.com/border-patrol-…

Can we get Special Counsel to weigh in on literally every single member of this administration?

Hi Liz Cheney, I worked at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, where I gave tours to tens of thousands of folks, introducing them to things everyone should know about the Holocaust, things you'd know if you actually visited. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is right... (thread)

1/ #SCOTUS abdicated in the gerrymandering cases today, but keep in mind that voters can still solve the problem. In 2018 voters in 5 states adopted redistricting reforms by overwhelming majorities, & there are now active measures in 6 more. brennancenter.org/analysis/citiz… @brennancenter

First, there was Citizens United. Now, we have the Supreme Court partisan #gerrymandering ruling. If you don't think elections have consequences, you're not paying attention. RIP Merrick Garland's stolen #SCOTUS seat. politico.com/story/2019/06/…

Andy and I ticked an item off our bucket list with this episode--speaking with Graham and Ali from Rex Factor, the team that inspired @SagaThingPod, as we cover Brunanburh from both the English and Scot (/Hiberno-Norse/Welsh/Celt/saga/etc.) sides. Great guys, and a great time!
