As we close out this year’s #TalkLikeAPirateDay, it’s not too late to grab one (or all) of my pirate publications! You can cruise the Chesapeake Bay, prowl the mid-Atlantic coast with William Kidd, or sail from New England to the Caribbean with Black Sam Bellamy! 🏴‍☠️📚

A digital banner featuring the covers of my publications. From left to right-The Daring Exploits of Pirate Black Sam Bellamy: From Cape Cod to the Caribbean; Pirates & Privateers from Long Island Sound to Delaware Bay; Pirates: Shipwrecks, Conquests, and their Lasting Legacy; and Pirates of the Chesapeake Bay: From the Colonial Era to the Oyster Wars. To the right is my name with a skull and cross bones above. Below that are the logos of Amazon, The History Press, and IndieBound.

Jennyfer, a restaurant worker in FL, reported to police that her manager sexually assaulted her. Within weeks, she was charged with a DUI & deported to Nicaragua. The criminal legal system, in tandem with immigration enforcement, is built to disappear vulnerable people, @alexmar.bsky.social reports.

It is definitely not fun. Especially in a household where both of us are not getting paid…

Dr. Jamie LH Goodall @lhistorienne.bsky.social · 1d

I think we’re in for a long fight. I’m going to run out of coffee mugs for my shutdown photos 🤣💀

Again, it varies from state to state. But that is, generally, the idea, yes.

Dr. Jamie LH Goodall @lhistorienne.bsky.social · 1d

It depends, especially not knowing if we’ll receive the back pay we should be entitled to, as rules vary from state to state. And my employer is in DC, which is also challenging, living in VA.

Dr. Jamie LH Goodall @lhistorienne.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, it’s law as of 2019, but I definitely don’t trust this administration given how little the law has stopped them so far.

Dr. Jamie LH Goodall @lhistorienne.bsky.social · 1d

Thanks! That only helps if the government actually pays us our back pay, which they’re threatening to withhold. So now I’m worried I’ll take out a loan and be unable to pay it back.

Dr. Jamie LH Goodall @lhistorienne.bsky.social · 1d

Need.

Dr. Jamie LH Goodall @lhistorienne.bsky.social · 1d

It’s not our first (as my spouse has been active duty 15 years so far), but it is our first with me also being federal meaning neither of us getting paid. It’s truly the worst.

Dr. Jamie LH Goodall @lhistorienne.bsky.social · 1d

Yep!

Dr. Jamie LH Goodall @lhistorienne.bsky.social · 1d

If I see one more person telling us federal workers and military families to “enjoy” our “free vacation,” I’m going to implode. 🤬
