I'm waiting for my next invite! XD

Happy to be on the podcast-that-might-be AND teach you to drive & drive stick at that.

Honestly some of the most professional fun I’ve ever had was doing a couple of History Respawned episodes with @ludensprof.bsky.social!

@bokane.org one of my life goals is now to geek out with you on a podcast.

Wow haven’t been on here in a hot minute. Finished my 2nd crochet project this afternoon while listening to @jeremiahjenne.com and @bokane.org on an old Barbarians at the Gate episode. Life continues to be life.

I usually post "The Woman in Green" on Halloween, I guess in the chaos of the past couple of weeks I forgot.

It's still probably my FAVORITE piece of writing I've ever done. It's. So. Good. (I don't usually say that about myself - but, y'know, I will in this case). theappendix.net/issues/2013/...

I went out to lay on my deck for a bit - weather is lovely, last gasp of niceness before winter gets its claws in us. The sky is really pretty right now.

Well, Wumbum is home. I’m letting her hang out on her side of the couch for a while before she goes into the Thai water jug with Torres.

Socialism at Altitude: Chinese Mountaineering, Mountaineering in China This talk examines historical attempts to climb the highest mountains in the People's Republic of China. Much has been written about mountaineering from a Western perspective - but what does this…

Very engaging and informative talk by @mcgreenesd.bsky.social on "Socialism at Altitude: Chinese Mountaineering, Mountaineering in China" —so glad that UCI's Long Institute has shared the video, because the visuals are amazing.

A comic #FFXIV commission for @mcgreenesd.bsky.social . A 3 pages long comic story about Ming's and Mamu's characters wedding. Bunny love & Spriggan shenanigan.

talk TODAY at 4 PM PST on "Socialism at Altitude," Zoom available! Since the airline lost my baggage, I'll be looking like a Montana hobo, but I've got some cool sources and cool stories www.socsci.uci.edu/newsevents/e...

Mid-Autumn, Tiger Hill, Late Ming "Everyone was perfectly silent, even the mosquitoes."

For the Mid-Autumn Festival, I translated the 17th century failson, epicure, and memoirist Zhang Dai's account of the annual Mid-Autumn singing competition on Tiger Hill in Suzhou. www.burninghou.se/p/mid-autumn...

We have a new Sinologist community on Discord - membership has a brief application & isn't *totally* open (it's professional in nature), but if you've been looking for a China group outside of bsky/Facebook/Twitter, this might be the ticket. discord.gg/g6S8WbVW

Sleeping Wumbum, for anyone who needs it (she only barks when she’s dreaming)

FF14 static Lunaris , a #FFXIV commission work for @mcgreenesd.bsky.social & @vaerisunder.bsky.social

Got our static commission for this tier done, it's PERFECT! (we wanted Yellowstone roadtrip vibe)

Eight warriors of light stand over the defeated body of a lalafell.

Huzzah! @dapneym.bsky.social, @mcgreenesd.bsky.social, and our static finally took down M6S!

I'm giving a talk at UC Irvine on Oct. 6 on my mountaineering stuff - it'll also be on Zoom & posted to Youtube later. I'll do more promo as the date nears, but isn't this a good poster? I'm going to ask one of our office staff to print me off a copy so I can put it on my office door.

Wumbum. I cannot explain how much I adore her.

Can’t blame you for coddling her, she is precious!

She’s still my everything.

Things I love about BZN: mountains, not really pictured here but they’re impossible to ignore; the fact I don’t worry about locking my car or house; the way summer storms look when they’re rolling in.

Still clocking along & still the cutest chonk to ever chonk.

Up late & can’t sleep, getting some reading done while this chonk slumbers

IYKYK

Chonkchonk is best raid buddy.

I sometimes wonder why my iPad has slime on it. This is why.

I wish I could adequately explain how much I love her, but I can’t.

Cleared the new Extreme with that static; everyone’s decked out in the finest of Mingmom Couture.
