Curious, isn't it, that the only people who ever question my credentials or competence as a historian are those who, in the very next breath, assert some ridiculous pseudohistorical nonsense as fact. I mean that literally, it's the only time it ever comes up. #history #historodons

I chose this instance because it looked pretty active, and there is strong moderation against Nazis. Those are really the main criteria for me.

I totally didn't realize until yesterday that the .at in our instance domain refers to Argentina. And here I was wondering why there's so much Spanish on my tootstream! 😂

This article about the last of the polio survivors who still use iron lungs is a powerful look at history, and a strong case for vaccination and herd immunity. https://gizmodo.com/the-last-of-the-iron-lungs-1819079169

Some racist idiot tried to post a comment on my blog denying the Armenian genocide of 1915 and questioning my credentials as a historian because I accept the proven facts that it happened. Then he complains that I didn't approve his comment. Nope. No racist pseudohistory on my blog!

@ink_slinger Yup, that's it. Hanging around on a hilltop in Athens wearing a toga and talking about civic virtue is apparently the best form of government, according to the Greeks at least!

I am not a Marxist, but given a choice between hanging out with a Marxist or a Libertarian, you can go ahead and wrap me in a hammer and sickle flag!

I love how our incidence has so many socialists, left-anarchists, Spanish speakers and LGBT folks on it. The worst nightmares rolled into one for the right wing trolls on the birdsite. 😂

@ink_slinger Actually, Aristotle talked about this kind of thing..."democracy" was the corrupt and fallen version of "polity."

Wrote this article a while ago, but I'm really proud of it. Dune seas and forest moons: exploring the environments of #StarWars.

We're watching De Palma's "Blow Out," and it's really a great movie. Haven't seen it in years. I used to live in Philadelphia in the 80s and it brings back memories.

Of course, it would appear 75% of you speak Spanish, so you may not even know what I'm saying. 😂
Not that that's bad. 😉

I like how it's generally much more chill here. Twitter always feels so competitive.

You were all so much nicer to me when I posted my anti-NaNoWriMo article here than they are on the birdsite.
