Just finished Demon Copperhead and now I guess I better go read David Copperfield and a Dickens biography.

Ok. You've just discovered a magical camcorder that can travel through space and time. It can record high quality sound and video for one hour. You can only use it three times.

Where do you send your magical camcorder.

Interesting question.

  1. 5 minutes of saber tooth tigers
  2. 40 minutes of my enslaved 3xgreat grandmother
  3. 15 minutes of my town or whatever is here 100 years in the future

I've always hated the book Lolita despite being told I was wrong and didn't understand allegory etc. Rebecca Solnit's 2015 piece explains the problem well.

I wrote rude things on the cover of a copy of Lolita before putting it in a free pile.

Has anyone else (re)turned to since the of social media began? The level of control over my feeds and the absence of algorithms (mostly speaking...) has been a breath of fresh air.

Especially interested in how fellow , , and other are using RSS. What feeds are you subscribed to and what readers are you using? @histodons @academicchatter

I'm using Feedly purely because I had a very old account gathering dust but I'm not super keen on its slant towards business users and its AI push. As for feeds, I've got two groups - one for general blogs and sites (e.g. @thesiswhisperer) and one for and journals.
