This pleases me (gift):
"I had only one advantage: I’m a historian. One of the true gifts of studying the humanities is not the content we learn in school, but that we develop the skills to learn what we need to know when life takes unexpected turns. So like a proper nerd, I made a reading list."

The most politically active Protestant denomination in 2020 was:
The Episcopal Church
The United Church of Christ
PCUSA
The average Southern Baptists engaged in about half as many political acts as the average Episcopalian.

"You can pay for the opportunity be the worst person in the world and walk up to somebody with a giant megaphone." -- one of the most awful things about the bad place
Harassment, racism, and engagement farming are not “a difference of opinion.”
Had a chance to talk about BlueSky on Pablo’s pod—and why the echo chamber argument mischaracterizes what’s actually going on.

That kindness is always going to be appreciated by creators, but if you want to help to boost something here, you have to repost it so others see it. 🙂

i think that the people interested in recriminations and score settling right now aren’t seriously grappling with the magnitude of what happened and the implications for the rest of our lives. most of us will probably die living in the political order that will emerge out of this election.
