We NEED a permanent extension of ACA tax credits so we can BEGIN to legislate Medicare For ALL & not have people on the Marketplace constantly worried about their subsidies being REVOKED. BUT, Universal Healthcare, like Medicare For All IS the TRUE Answer!

Just a brief reminder if you have a library card you can access Hoopla and Kanopy where you can access tons of free movies and tv shows. They usually get rid of some monthly to add new ones.

Streamers were the first thing to go since being unemployed. Check and see what services your library has!

CFP: The Hemingway Letters Project: Emerging Research (Toronto, July 20-25, 2026). Please share with students/colleagues/friends who might be interested. Happy to answer questions about the panel in particular and the conference in general. Funding opportunities available.
The Hemingway Letters Project invites proposals for a panel at the 21st Biennial Hemingway Conference, July 20-25, 2026 in Toronto. 6 vols of The Letters of Ernest Hemingway have been published to date. This edition has allowed access to the author's correspondence, approximately 85% of which is previously unpublished. In its first 6 vols the project has made available 2000+ letters from 100+ repositories & collections. The editors invite proposals from scholars who have made significant use of the Letters in their work in order to highlight emerging research that the Project has facilitated. We are esp. interested in interdisciplinary engagement w/ the vols & welcome proposals from a range of fields & subfields, including but not limited to, bibliography & history of the book, biography & life writing, creative writing, digital humanities & humanities computing, literary criticism, modernist studies, pedagogy, periodical studies & print culture, textual & documentary editing, & popular culture &fandom. To be considered for the panel, please submit to the panel organizers a short (500-1000 words) description of your project as well as a short professional bio. Your project description should describe your work as a whole, how the Letters have facilitated your research, and what topic or approach your conference presentation will explore. Please indicate if your work is a finished project or a work in progress. In your bio, please include your professional affiliation and, if applicable, your student status or academic rank. We especially welcome proposals from graduate students, postdocs, and early-career scholars, as well as researchers outside the academy whose work reaches a wide general audience. Deadline Oct. 1, 2025.
