Have you been to the Underground Railroad Heritage Center at Niagara Falls? It's pretty small (you can do the whole thing in 30 minutes if you read fast) but it's so woke and so delightful.

Oh man, I have not been to Niagara Falls in so long, like 20 years and now I have the beginnings of a ludicrous plan to do an Underground Railroad themed tour of upstate New York because it seems like there’s been so much new recognition of that history.

And from an entirely different angle, I’d love to go to that big Mormon history extravaganza at Hill Cumorah some day too. I could combine them for a unique and extremely American experience.

I found a fascinating, if deeply grim, 1972 version of “Groomer” panic:

#from The Containment by Michelle Adams #the clearest parallel is the panic on trans girls #in the vile assumption that the presence of fellow children is a sexual menace

I love learning when each of you have woken up and checked your phones this morning.

i think people are starting to confuse class analysis with bioessentialism. like... no not all men do this, but Men as a constructed social class do do this. that's still okay to say. that is regular material analysis of the world around us.

this is true, but it is not bioessentialist. both cis & trans men WILL see a mouse & eat it. this is because it is in their best interest to eat mice. they benefit from eating mice. this is essential to their class position, not their biological makeup.

#would it surprise any of you that I once lived with a guy who did eat mice #as part of a holistic anarch primitivist pest management strategy #he learned that mice recognize the smell of mouse protein in predators pee and stay away

Ryan Lochte seems to have converted to evangelism after finding a new girlfriend. And obviously it feels like a bad trend for our dumbest Olympian to be getting into some kind of Christianity. On the other hand, I guess Protestants get Ryan Lochte in exchange for JD Vance being Catholic. And this feels like a terrible bargain for my Catholic siblings, so I am terribly sorry.

Would absolutely like to ask each of them how many kids the Virgin Mary has though. I would put a lot of money on them both being ‘wrong’.

shirley jackson casually asking the pharmacist how much arsenic would be necessary to kill a family

from on fans and fanmail, a lecture by shirley jackson

this is like that time virginia woolf was at the pharmacist with her sister vanessa and were casually (and loudly) talking about lesbian sex

#this is like how Shirley Jackson had kind of a hang up about lesbians where she imagined the having a kind of freedom she was incapable of #and by is like #I mean is an hilarious justification of this belief

Robert Penn Warren’s All The Kings Men is the latest vehicle for me to have the experience of “wow, why didn’t anyone tell that this widely beloved classic fucking rules?”

#and what can I say about a cursed and failed man and a cursed but winning man #from the northeast #is that neither of you fucks are a Willie Stark

Did you see this? You’re the person on tumblr who I think of reading this type of history book - https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/10/books/kerri-greenidge-the-grimkes.html?unlocked_article_code=1.w1A.kpx4.-mt6IWrdohsH&smid=nytcore-ios-share

Wow! That is shocking and upsetting because I absolutely love Greenridge’s book, just one of my absolute favorites of all time. I was also really looking forward to her next book.

I’ll say that just from initially reading the NYT article seem, to me, related to relatively small details about the most well- known Grimkes and not the newer, more complicated research into the Grimkes she mostly focuses on and a very believable context of bias and disproportionate focus. Though, they are serious errors (referencing letters that do not exist) and doesn’t speak well about the other sections. So, I guess I’m mostly very sad about about the fall of a scholar and writer whom I’ve been a huge fan of.

“I’m not sure if I can win this, but it’s the right thing to lose.” - former Detroit School Board President Abraham Zwerdling on the fight to integrate Detroit Public Schools, which he did lose. (From Michelle Adams, The Containment: Detroit, The Supreme Court and the Battle for Racial Justice in the North)

#but I read this 30 years after his death and am touched and inspired

Speaking of woke museums:

I see your joke about the guy in the 1920s driving a model t with a bumper sticker that says “I bought this before he went crazy” and I raise you “guy in 2126 going to the super woke Elon Musk Museum for the 3rd Reconstruction exhibit.”

This is, of course, separate from all the serious concerns about public history but just, specifically, for me, my personal connection to the issue is that I fucking love a woke museum and I especially love when an older institutional museum goes super woke. How the Philadelphia Museum of Art displays 17th century silver now fucking rules. It rules! And it’s a smaller museum but considering how woke it is with the budget and material it’s working with, the Virginia Museum of History and Culture punches way above its weight. Making museums less woke harms me in particular by taking away my fun.

I think if we keep encouraging Tumblr YA comedy-fantasy authors we can really put a dent in the idea that it's possible for writing to be good

#we will prove teddy sturgeon and his law so correct #that he will rise from the dead and slay us #and only the ya romantasy authors with the courage to have werewolves drinking menstrual blood will be spared

All winter long, I carefully lurch down the icy sidewalks into town and sit in a mostly empty restaurant sipping my chamoy margarita and tipping 75% of the bill like a girl who is Jack Torrance. And as my reward, come July, I have the small beach town’s Mexican restaurant version of a lighting lane pass that zips me ahead of lines of sunburned children.

New local scandal is an old woman who will walk down to her mailbox in her robe, then, when no cars are driving by, lay down next to her mailbox as if she’s fallen or been hit by a car. Tourists will stop, help her up, and walk her to her house. Then, after they leave, she’ll repeat this until she’s bored with it.

Her neighbors have called the cops a bunch but have been told that it’s not illegal to fake being an old lady in peril so soft-hearted tourists or newcomers are nice to you. One of the neighbors sometimes yells “oh, get up, Lois!” at her. But overall local sentiment is that this is at least somewhat enviable levels of not giving a fuck.

Mitch McConnell reminds me of yall….brain dead but still yapping!

“We have been cajoling and flattering the South and slurring the North, because the South is determined to rewrite the history of slavery and the North is not interested in history but in wealth.”

- DuBois (1935)
