This conference means so much to me. In 2019, @jenguiliano.bsky.social & I collaborated to put on the 1st ACH conference since the 1990s. I ran it for the next few years and now the labor has been taken on by other wonderful people. #ReviewsInDH, among other projects, would not exist if not for it.

Historians who work with oral history etc know this effect. It increases significantly around traumatic events, & over multiple retellings, which is one reason testimony around eg the JFK assassination is contradictory. Memory isn’t a record of events; it’s your brain forming a narrative for you.
This is, incidentally, exactly why you should be very sceptical of most war memoirs that weren’t written shortly after the war in question (and even then memory can prove surprisingly malleable even unconsciously)
All my mates know the harrowing story of how I nearly drowned as a kid and had to be rescued by helicopter. The story came up at a birthday meal and my mum said that never happened. After a lot of arguing and Googling we've figured out I fell asleep watching a 999 TV reenactment

Wizard feminism.
For JK Rowling "sex-based rights" are not the right to be paid the same as men, to live without sexual violence or coercion, to share the burden of unpaid labour, to escape the motherhood penalty or have domestic abuse taken seriously.
They are about the exclusion of trans women. Mind-blowing.

Secularism isn’t what’s driving people away from Christianity.
What’s driving people away from Christianity are those who claim to follow Jesus, but completely ignore his teachings and use his name instead to amass wealth and political power.
