@R_Banner1 @ashleyrattner Yeah it was super shitty

@R_Banner1 @ashleyrattner Oh dear she told. I had a similarly toney experience many years ago wandering into the so-called “Fish Fry” Stanley Fish would hold at MLA and you couldn’t get me out of there fast enough

@R_Banner1 @ashleyrattner Please tell

@S_Insley_H @ashleyrattner Yep, ditto

@ashleyrattner I have an iPad with PDFExpert (an app) and for me nothing else I’ve tried has worked as well.

Male and female represent the two sides of the great radical dualism. But, in fact, they are perpetually passing into one another. Fluid hardens to solid, solid rushes to fluid. There is no wholly masculine man, no purely feminine woman. -Margaret Fuller, The Dial 1843 #SCOTUS

@davidrkadler The notion that he could understand one sentence of this letter.

Jamie Jones, in the inaugural issue of The Dial, discusses containerization, Thoreau’s Cape Cod, and her own habits of ship-watching at the Strait of Gibraltar. muse.jhu.edu/pub/562/articl…

Richard Primack and Abe Miller-Rushing in the current issue of The Dial explaining how Thoreau’s Kalendar has offered a key dataset for their work as climate scientists: muse.jhu.edu/pub/562/articl…

Fuck BU with their fucking 3 billion dollar endownment insidehighered.com/news/admission…

@JeffreyInsko @thedialrwes @Enbridge One of my favorite moments from the issue:

“Butler, like Thoreau, had little reason for techno-optimism and […] saw more clearly than most that climate crisis would soon become the dystopian norm.” @castronovo_russ sees paratextual covergences bt Octavia Butler & Henry Thoreau in The Dial. thedialjournal.org

This has been a labor of love over the past couple of years; the inaugural contributors are SO good, and we hope you like it! @C19Americanists @AmLit_ALA

Wow! ♥️

Why the fuck do I continue to care about this country? But I do.

@RezekJoe I mean tbh I’ve always assumed a lot of the private school admits got in through connections, coaching, etc

@JeffreyInsko 's tie looks like Trump's in this photo

@JeffreyInsko @podsekalnikov There was something in my eye you dick

@BGinCHI @JeffreyInsko Let’s not exaggerate how good is it was tho

@ChristoHanlon @JeffreyInsko That's really, really, really, really good, and very moving, even with the Indigo Girls part. Congrats.

@JeffreyInsko and I usually take cheap shots at one another here on Twitter, but the truth is this speech he gave as he officiated my wedding to Rose this past weekend was basically ok I guess.
