I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that's in Montreal or maybe Quebec City. 😜
The crest would probably give it away, but that's like work.

@beatnikprof The Eastern Townships, where #ThreePines is set, is Abenaki land. Most recent scholarship on #Abenaki #history in #Québec is written in French. Still, larger regional English-language histories of #Indigenous peoples - like Calloway, Dawnland Encounters and Brooks, The Common Pot - apply. Standard works on the history of Indigenous peoples in #Canada include Dickason, Canada's First Nations; Miller, Skyscrapers Hide the Heaves; Ray, An illustrated history of Canada's Native people.

@megsouth @beatnikprof "This message is a warning and a reminder for any surviving Jedi: trust in the Force. #DoNotReturnToTheTemple. That time has passed, and our future is uncertain. Avoid Coruscant. Avoid detection. Be secret... but be strong. We will each be challenged: our trust, our faith, our friendships. But we must persevere and, in time, I believe a new hope will emerge. #MayTheForce be with you, always"

These lyrics from Hedwig always stuck with me.
🎶 And there's no mystical design,
No cosmic lover preassigned.
There's nothing you can find
that can not be found.

#Tolstoy may have had the right of it all along:
“A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor — such is my idea of happiness.” -

We were discussing Henry V in class yesterday, and a student was having trouble with the final scene between Henry and Katharine. She asked: “Henry just won the Battle of Agincourt. He’s happy, his soldiers are happy, the audience is happy, Joseph Campbell is happy. Why does #shakespeare include it?”
It gave me a chuckle. Sometimes there are lighthearted stories coming out of the classroom.

“His headstone said
FREE AT LAST, FREE AT LAST
But death is a slave's freedom
We seek the freedom of free men
And the construction of a world
Where Martin Luther King could have lived and
preached non-violence”

One change this semester: I no longer required students to write papers in the dread five-paragraph format. It has been very liberating for some. If we are asking them to think independently, why shouldn’t they also express themselves outside of the cookie cutter? Though I begin many a comment now with: “Disclaimer: a freshman comp instructor probably wouldn’t approve. But I am not a freshman comp instructor.”

Pulitzer to the first reporter who asks JD Vance: “But aren’t the Haitians of Springfield also your constituents?”

Dr. Fauci’s book tour inspired me to watch the film adaptation of Larry Kramer’s The Normal Heart. Christ wept. When are we going to get politics out of the way of public health and just help those who need helping?
(I guess I know the answer. Just posting out of exasperation.) #DrFauci #larrykramer -
