The emotional whiplash between Joe's withdrawal on Saturday, to realizing we're going to elect the 1st woman of color as our next President is probably closest you'll ever get to knowing what it feels like to make the jump to hyper-space. 🤯

Many thanks to the designers @CornellPress for producing this amazing cover! Can't wait to share the book with you this June 📚

@tnflorvil For SURE. Dear GOD I hate this time line…

Putin's appeasers promise that Russia will stop as soon as Ukraine surrenders cities like Kherson and Zaporizhzia and disarms itself. One may wonder why Russia's Ministry of Internal Affairs would introduce a new license plate area code – 188 RUS – for the entire Kharkiv region.

@ceaubin I know I will never truly know your pain… Just this every damn day:

@ceaubin Amen to ALL of that. Agree 100%. Well said.

I also think the reason ‘academically trained’ historians are so constantly undervalued is because history intersects with everything in the entire world - there are histories of science, of math, of politics and engineering and emotion and thought and food and culture.

@KyleDietrich19 Just straight into the sun.

It was #otd in 1943 that the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial church was hit by the RAF in WW2. Here's a video I shot about this back in April. There's a chance that the chap whose grave I visited today, killed in that same air raid, dropped the bomb that hit it.

@WhitlamsBerlin Likely both. As 2-meter tall human, I cannot be trusted to view this objectively.

@PizzoHistorian Not big enough for the flow of traffic. Or we Berliners got too big? 🤔

If you don’t hate these stairs do you even ride the U6?

The war is tough. And the mood in Kyiv reflects the reality. Yesterday, the Kyiv School of Economics held its annual fundraiser. Many influential people attended: 7 ministers, many from the Ukrainian Forbes list. I spoke to them privately. And this is what they said. 1/

Britain tried to mass produce a wool fiber substitute made from peanuts in the 1950s?!

@adam_blacklerWY Amen to ALL of that brother. Friends like you make projects worth doing, GSAs worth enduring (love them, but exhausting), and books worth reading. Much more to come for us. 🫡

This bad boy by amazing historian and even more amazing human being @adam_blacklerWY arrived today. So happy to finally have it in hand. And so proud of him. It’s an honor to call him my friend.
