Don't stop there!

Target should move their HQ to the Whipple Building.

Haven't seen Hegseth lately. What's he been up to?

Here a grandmother is forced to do a gig job with no job security because she can’t afford to retire? What are we celebrating here?

On a sunny Friday afternoon, took Judy for a long loop around s mpls. Loved seeing kids out, being kids... glued to their phones, popping wheelies on their bikes, walking dogs with their moms. I hope its a sign this neighborhood is healing.

I am glad the Council did this. As a resident of the city, I had no idea what he did to earn his whopping $350,000 a year salary. During the height of the ICE occupation, this supposed commissioner of community safety was persona non grata.

Armageddon. I wish it hadn’t happened. But…

This is a great essay on academic publishing... I shared it with my colleagues at Minnesota and encouraged everyone to read it.

I've been having a blast this winter taking a nostalgia trip through Azeroth via WoW Classic, but that seems to be coming to an end, as the guild I've been running with transitions to Kara prep. I am too old to be assigned a raiding slot in a spreadsheet by strangers.

My thirteen year old cousin was struck and killed by a drunk driver when I was a kid. This shit enrages me. Elliott Engen must resign.

elliott engen must have been drinking all day ahead of his DUI earlier this morning. redditor caught him and walter hudson drinking at 2:30pm

*My niece, after leaving me on read for 24 hours*: haha yeah

*Me, in a panic, texting my 14 & 15 year old nieces*: I'm not chopped, am I? Am I a chopped unc???

ICE agents should be fired, not deployed to airports.

I do appreciate when readers contact me, not the author, to share a typo. We create a "reprints file" and when the book comes up to be reprinted, we can correct typos in that way.

Weird to say, but these days finding the occasional typo doesn't bother me at all (perhaps that's partly what comes with 20 years working in typoland), but a typo reminds me that humans made this, the author, but also copyeditors and editors and proofreaders. Wonderful humans.

Checkpoint 300 and the Architecture of Control Mark Griffiths shows how the infamous Checkpoint 300 embodies larger geographies of Israeli control — reshaping a once-vibrant commercial strip in the West Bank.

Conferences in spaces like the Hilton Union Square can be disabling events for people with metabolic disorders. I’ve packed my luggage with fresh fruit, granola bars, and nuts.

I'm also reflecting on the fact that I've been attending the AAGs and publishing in geography for over two decades. I was a young editorial assistant when I worked on DEMONIC GROUNDS, and it blew my mind. One of those books that knocks your thinking into a totally new orbit.

Super excited to be heading to (balmy) San Francisco today for the #AAG #AAG26 meeting. We have a stellar lineup of new works in geography. I am so excited to showcase a 20th anniversary edition of Katherine McKittrick's (@demonicgrounds.bsky.social) field-defining DEMONIC GROUNDS.

Is it just me or do resorts catch fire in the Lusten area an awful lot?

To the taconite mill!

Have we tried queering it?

A book cover with the title printed sideways up the left side, subtitle presented (in five rows) across the page next to it, with the author's name in all caps just below. The featured image is a colored engraving of wildflowers and berries on the vine, with a bird alighting on the top.

Kristin Bluemel is the author of the new book "Enchanted Wood: Engraving a Place for Women Artists in Rural Britain," published by @uminnpress.bsky.social, www.upress.umn.edu/978151791477...

She discusses the contributions of artists Gwen Raverat, Agnes Miller Parker, Clare Leighton & Joan Hassall.

If my Grandma Wilson were still alive, she'd describe the weather in Minneapolis today as "Windier than a hoot."

Me to all my colleagues in scholarly publishing:

I hope I live to see the Whipple Building torn down, its rubble crushed into fine powder.

This is going to be a super stellar symposium.
