What an incredible thread about history, research, archives, and why we and how we study groups in the margins. This is everything about how, what, and why historians do what we do.

This is going to be a very long and niche gay history thread, so I apologize in advance. But something incredible happened and I have to share it.

Three groups favor a long war in Ukraine: Vladimir Putin, the global defense industry, and China.
American foreign policy needs strategic depth, not just defense spending. That begins with a cogent mission statement for Ukraine…

Cale Makar was asked about how fun it is to play with guys he doesn’t play with much - his linemates today are MacKinnon and Rantanen…
He said: “we actually play together quite a bit” 
That concludes breaking coverage of this out-of-proportion outrage.
We now return you to your previous out-of-proportion outrage.

Bloomberg reports that the White House kept the balloon’s presence under wraps for fear of derailing the Blinken trip, until local media in Billings Montana published a picture of it on Thursday afternoon.

This is the best response to this balloon thing I’ve seen yet.
Quote Tweet
Seems the balloon has more strategic use to us right now in the air with the world aware than it would shot down. China looks foolish & answered publicly. It should come down & we should see its data. And if it was truly for weather, we could work *with* the Chinese to ground it.

NERD ALERT...the atmospheric heights will be SO LOW tonight, anyone living above 4,000 ft or so (hello top of Mount Washington) will be in a different atmospheric layer entirely, the stratosphere! This layer is typically 4-12 miles up, but tonight it will be less than a mile!

INSANE conditions on Mt Washington, NH. 120mph+ winds and -95°F wind chill. It is above the tropopause, meaning that these are stratospheric winds.

If your school board policy is somehow *not* violated when the 2 adults on a school bus allow something like this to occur without intervening right away... g'damn that's hard to swallow.

Black History Day 3. Summer of 1963: 15 girls ages of 12-14 were jailed in a 1-room stockade in Americus, GA with no running water for 45 days for their part in civil rights protests. They became known as the Stolen Girls. A historical marker now stands at the Leesburg Stockade.

Rep. Diana Harshbarger prayed that God will "remove people that are ungodly from places of authority": "We are the remnant, the people who stand in the place at such a time as this, God, to do your will. We're the only thing that stands between prosperity and destruction."

I don't 100% with everything writes here (God help me if that's the litmus test for what I read!), but damn, this is good: a reasonable and reasoned piece that deploys nuance, complexity & conciliatory humility while still holding a point.

2 days after saying he still believes Putin more than the US Intel Community, the current Republican front runner for President reposts a message encouraging people to be “locked and LOADED” to “physically fight for him this time.”
Normal signs of a well-functioning democracy.
Turned out SO much better than it might have. Credit to Jimmy for really original idea, and yes, Lindell for playing along.

when "going HAM" really meant something
Quote Tweet
HAM the chimpanzee became the first hominid in space #OTD in 1961, launched on a sub-orbital flight aboard Mercury-Redstone 2. His name was an acronym for Holloman Aerospace Medical Center and a nod to its commanding officer Lt Col Hamilton Blackshear.

not particularly shocking that private tweets perform better than public in a twitter optimizing for max engagement
your tweets measured against people who are already opted in, vs your tweets measured against everyone on twitter
