@JoyceCarolOates I love your description of what you did here and why. Reminds me so much of one of your former colleagues and my former teachers, Natalie Z. Davis, who treated other scholars and writers, even those who stumbled in one way or another, with enormous respect and fellow-feeling.
@Tyler_A_Harper One of the best and worst places on earth. I've got to be able to live with both to love it, and I do.
I learned a lot from workshopping w/ the terrific @URLawSchool faculty! Particularly loved engaging with their dynamic jr faculty. Always enjoy seeing the brilliant @athenais1674 (can't wait for her book linking poverty governance to wealth generation for the already wealthy).
Delighted to welcome Prof. Karen Tani @kmtani from @pennlaw to campus today to present her paper "They Were the Cotton": Disability and Extraction in Modern U.S. Legal History," as part of our faculty colloquy series. @athenais1674
@DavidAvromBell That's a lovely essay, David. A vivid portrait, set so clearly in place and time. So spirited, and also so sad.
Signing paperbacks & thinking about #RoevWade at @SeminaryCoop bookstore @UChicago — as one does.
One of the few good parts (only good part?) of the pandemic is that my husband and I got to spend days together, even more than when we were students at law school. The only thing I miss about that time.

We poured one out for the late Richard B. Bernstein at this year's ASLH (@ASLHtweets). May he rest in peace and may we continue to be inspired by his research, mentorship, and high standards for historical writing.
@agordonreed The most common form of criticism when I was in graduate school was: Here is what is wrong with this paper, article, or book. Natalie was always: Here's what I found fascinating, here's what surprised me, here's what I learned from this paper, article, or book.
@agordonreed @KevinMKruse It's terrible. And never as bad as a week like this.
Missing from Twitter X for a spell while I was frantically working to get book manuscript to publisher. Hit send today. So what did I miss while I was gone?
If you're tenured at an R1 institution and you characterize manuscript reviewing for a journal and serving on a professional org committee as forms of "uncompensated labor" you may want to introspect a bit.
My fall seminar starts on Monday and August 14 IS NOT FALL. 😑
I lost a queer identified student this past weekend, likely to suicide. I’m so so sad and angry.
Thanks @legalhistory for the announcement about the publication of the Essays in Honor of James Oldham lawandhistoryreview.org/article/forum-…. My short talk with James Oldham during the Cambridge BLHC 2011 initiated my research interest in 18th c. English law.
