Welcome new followers! I am Abbaetha. I mostly follow historians, academics, authors and bookish types, crafters, and cooks. My feed is mostly breads, cakes, books, and crafts, which continues the theme. I like a quiet peaceful corner and that’s the goal of this account. No cat, but ferrets.

I made the vital gochujiang cookies today. They are very nice particularly if you like the salty/sweet type of desserts - lots of nice umami and depth, with a real but not overwhelming spicy finish.

I threw out 6 boxes of ancient and pointless files (really, other country I lived in for a while, if you want to audit me you’ve missed your window) and am now self-medicating with lackluster candy. Please clap.
The decluttering persists, but so do I.
The fabric stash is particularly distressing.

Still looking for some of these! We’ve said yes to a couple of pitches, but are looking for around 3-5 more for early next year.
We are primarily looking for historians of ancient, medieval, and non-Western figures.

Call for (post-PhD) historians and cultural scholars for the pod! We have a specific wishlist of scholarship we’re looking to add to the lineup:
- ancient & medieval history
and/or
- histories of anywhere other than the US and UK, preferably outside Europe
Pitches to: [email protected]
