I hate straight Halloween. What do you mean no one understood my costume (if the mom in Pink Pony Club had been supportive and encouraging)??

Matt was in, but I wonder if we'd see the inverse in some of the formerly rock ribbed Democratic areas? Realistically, if Harris grows Biden's +4 in Bucks, she'll be in pretty good shape (pollsters, please poll Bucks County).

Without raining on anyone's parade, this is certainly encouraging given that Bucks was only +4 for Biden. But Bucks is a place where the more ancestrally R places are flipping to Democrats & the more ancestrally Democratic ones are moving the opposite way. I don't know what town

I door-knocked today for the Harris campaign in Bucks County, PA, one of the most important counties in one of the most important states. I've done a lot of door-knocking in a lot of elections, including this cycle, but what I saw definitely changed my view of this race.

@CanellaMom literally this morning got to the part in *ordinary people* where marianne wipes her nose & it’s bloody (which made me wonder if all the other wiping was foreshadow)

Am reading INTERMEZZO and wanted to ask: am I the only one who noticed that Rooney's characters are always "wiping at their noses" with their "fingers"? are there no kleenex in Dublin?

Delighted to report that I signed a book contract 📖 (with my esteemed coauthor Stephanie Buongiorno github.com/stephbuon) for Text Mining for Historical Analysis. Our book is a soup-to-nuts textbook to teach coding in R 👩🏼‍💻 to those with large collections of text 📚 they want to understand over time ⏰. The audience is those with or without a background in code and quant methods, with a healthy balance of LLM integration and skepticism as part of the curriculum. Hooray for @cambUP_History for taking this brave new step into the world of code! Hooray for the brilliant reviewers who offered such generous and helpful feedback! Hooray for the new subfield of digital history and everyone who dabbles therein. @ianmilligan1 @nolauren @wgthomas3 @louishyman @AHAhistorians @kalanicraig @jmjafrx @LukeBlaxill @wattenberg @arthur_spirling @Zoe_LeBlanc @javiercha @RuthAhnert @khetiwe24 @pimhuijnen @LaraPutnam @MelvinWevers @ihr_history and apologies to everyone whose Twitter handle I’m not remembering at the moment Expect TMHA in bookstores in late 2025.
