Damian M@damiandamiani.bsky.social · 5mo agoOff to #AAS2026 in Vancouver — come say hi, and join our panel on “BAD” PEOPLE IN THE PRC: CRIMINALS & VILLAINS UNDER MAO!

Very moving memorial panel for Prof. Janet Theiss, a sore loss to #qinghistory #genderhistory here at #aas2026 w a wonderful roster including Profs. Tobie Meyer-Fong, Paola Zamperini, Stephanie Painter, Wen-hsin Yeh, and Maram Epstein. What an exemplar of the generosity w which we should live.
love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region
an entire administration illustrating the pitfalls of binary gender roles and vilifying drag

The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close! New: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/new-poll-d...

I don’t believe the whole “shut up and vote” thing is compelling or helpful but it sure as shit is definitely not helpful until a primary happens and there’s a nominee. Right now those people are just saying “accept transphobic shithead governors without question”
We’re apparently at the point where anonymous Facebook smack talk that exactly nobody is going to follow through on counts as news.
CNN@cnn.com · last yr.Across various private New York Facebook groups viewed by CNN – such as those for residents of the Upper East Side – some users have anonymously discussed potential plans to move out of the city following Zohran Mamdani’s primary win. cnn.it/3IpkOjr

Just so delighted to get out this much this summer. There must be flowers as well as bread. 🌹🥖
hey, you guys? is it a good thing or a bad thing if during a hearing your own co-counsel texts your other co-counsel and says “oh shit that was just not true” in reference to something you just told the chief judge of the D.C. district court???
Another beautiful weekend in and on top of some mountains. Reminds me of why it’s all worth fighting for.
Back on my BS (blue sky) after a month in Asia. Will never get tired of having Rocky Mountain NP in our backyard

I think there’s some college students who would disagree that the president believes we can “say whatever the f*ck you want”
The media doesn't want you to see that it's not a jail, it's slavery.

love a senator imploring regular citizens to fight back against tyranny. dawg you spent the last twenty years giving machine guns and tanks to traffic cops this is like pushing your toddler into the ring with ivan drago
Literary Chinese you can use, from Zhang Yanghao (1270-1329) on history: 興，百姓苦，亡，百姓苦 “Rise: the little people suffer. Fall: the little people suffer.”
🎻: spent hours today trying to move 6k mp3s from my ancient laptop using iTunes (yes, by not upgrading the OS for 4 yrs) to new (to me, 2ndhand) iPhone. Best option for Mac/iOS is Doppler. 1-time payment, $39 to hook up a phone + up to 3 computers. Enshittified subscription-based apps are evil.
