Y'all. Today is a holiday, just in case you didn't know it. As of this morning, @Ancestry has made the records of the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, and Abandoned Lands (Freedmen's Bureau) available in the world's largest digitized and searchable format. #genealogy

I really confused someone when I referred to the pictured item as an "eye." So, what do call it and where are you you from? I'm trying to figure out if "eye" is a southern term as an Internet search suggests. 📷: "stove burner—hot" by Muffet is licensed under CC BY 2.0.

All of us @Radiolab have been totally blown away by the response to this story (as threaded below, but more importantly in its fuller audio form here: radiolab.org/podcast/zoozve). Just wanted to do a quick thread to acknowledge the brilliant stars who helped put it all together!

Last January, I noticed something peculiar in my 2yo’s bedroom that - after a year of obsessive reporting - led me to a profound cosmic revelation about what’s even possible in our universe. A 🧵.

Cannot stop thinking about @MissyElliott performance at @essencefest . Hands down one of the best live performances I’ve EVER seen. What’s so cool is that my 11 yr old daughter and her friend were there with me and they loved it just as much as I did. Missy lives in the future!

@kathia_woods @DarkSkyLady Agree. Essence Fest is having two days with ladies of hip hop next week. The Sunday lineup is where it’s mostly at. Re our LGBTQIA+ fam, I haven’t seen anything. 😞
