The Sesame Workers Union is looking for a way to get to a fair & equitable Sesame Street. More than a year after employees at @SesameWorkersunion voted to unionize they’re still fighting for a contract that supports living in an increasingly unaffordable city. We stand in solidarity with their them.

Cool. Where is the screenshot from?

A CFP for the #DHmakes crowd!

Audiobooks and back-up snacks. You never know where you get stuck and what kind of food is available (if any).

Lovely to hear from you. Things are a little less hellish than last week, let's hope the orange bully have forgotten about Greenland soon.

With the ruination of search engines, as well as the increasing uselessness of searching one's own Gmail archive due to AI "assistance," using the computer increasingly feels like experiencing dementia.

My research project will let you fill in a form to tell us about your experience as a kid on the www from 1995 to 2005 *for free* (as soon as the ethics committee approves our questions 🤞)

A new image from Etsy seller ArtLight Media. It shows a blue stylized lighted torch on the left. A quote from Ursula K. Le Guin reads: You've cannot buy the revolution. You cannot make the revolution. You can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit or it is nowhere.

Goodnight, friends.

Ursula K. Le Guin shared this bit of wisdom in her novel The Dispossessed, and tonight, I'm sharing it with you.

We may not have the wealth that our technocapitalist overlords do, but that's ok. The revolution is not for sale.

The revolution is US.

I love you.

I HATE COLLINGWOOD Wolfenstein 3D mod on floppy disk. This version doesn't work. :(

Australians, please raid your Uncle's old PC in his shed, and help me find a copy of this to archive.

Goodnight, friends.

I had grandparenting duties today, so I wasn't able to join in #NoKings on the ground. But I put signs on my car and followed along with the coverage here.

Thanks to everyone who showed up and took a stand against fascism.

I love you.

Last week we had a *fantastic* presentation and discussion with Professor Helle Strandgaard Jensen (@sesamescholar.bsky.social) visiting from Aarhus University in Denmark! She discussed her journey as a digital historian, using AI in research, and the Web Child project -

I'm visiting the iSchool at the University of Illinois. Besides super interesting conversations with the brilliant folks here and the wonderful company of @anuncivilphd.bsky.social I also get to do morning runs on the prairie.

Like explaining my students why hyperlinks were such a revolutionary invention. They can't imagine the world where it didn't exist.

Give Buffy a go. I think it has aged much better than so many shows from that period. Only made it through half an episode of Ally before I had to stop.

Cannot weigh in on Samurai Pizza Cats, but do consider a rewatch of Buffy. Was a big hit with my 13yo.
