...four binders

It's now one of three binders. And counting, apparently.

@reaching4divine.bsky.social and I were discussing the curse of knowledge and it got me thinking about a turn of phrase that kept rolling around in my brain as I was pondering the title of my next exhibit, which is about #AIDS in #Milwaukee.

I got two!

I just found the title for my next exhibit ⚡🤩 I am inspired by the oral history interview conducted by Linda Wesp for the UWM Archives with clinical psychologist Jeff Kelly. I need to take a walk haha

Just in from the printer's 🖼️🤩 Jazzed to debut my latest exhibit at PrideFest Milwaukee in just 3 weeks.

Oh, and I've just about finalized my choices for the VIP history tour and wine tasting. Yes, science, queer history, and wine 🥂 It's the gayest, Wisconsin-ist program I could think of.

Trying real hard to get my Japanese pronunciation down for the audio recording of "Through Science to Justice"

Feeling a lot of affinity with librarians at the Wisconsin Association of Public Librarians conference in Oshkosh, WI. I got to tour their library (wow, huge!) and heard lots of lovely things about both @oshkoshpride.bsky.social and @uwoshkosh.bsky.social -- I'll have to check ya'll out soon!

I'm in the throes of research, chasing leads and gathering new facts and perspectives. These just came in the mail... 2 HUGE, heavy books (in weight as well as subject matter) and a documentary DVD produced by @pbs.org to help me on my journey to understanding Milwaukee's response to AIDS.

Office dog! 🐕

From archival docs to personal stories, piecing together a vital narrative. Diving into UW-Milwaukee archives & 23hrs of oral histories re: Milwaukee's unique AIDS response. Posting my exploration of documentary & pop culture AIDS depictions on Tumblr. #LGBThistory #UWMLibraries #AIDS #OralHistory

Loving the energy at the USA Prides conference. So many kindred spirits who value and promote #LGBTQhistory for its ability to inspire and empower action.

I'm also really happy that the wine pairings idea was a hit 😆

Feeling represented by USPS 💓

Seeing Keith Haring's design on something as iconically American as a postage stamp makes me feel the love that could've otherwise been drowned out these days.

I'm going to be proudly quoting exhibit shipping through the post office.
