Donald Trump doesn’t know a damn thing about service to his country.
Hey African studies hive mind, next year I’m teaching a general seminar in African politics. What books and other readings would you recommend?
Bought a washing machine @homedepot. Delivery yesterday came 8 hours after the window, w/o explanation. The drivers dropped off but didn't install it, because they didn't have the hoses. We called this morning to reschedule, which won't happen until THURSDAY! Terrible service!
I have a few invite codes for Blue sky if anyone wants one. It's a friendly place but needs more folks. Preference for scholars from Africa.
For those interested in Northern Ireland, BU is hosting a big conference on the anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, with 20 activists from NI participating. Today through Thursday sites.bu.edu/gfa/

I’m noticing that when I click a link to an article in the Boston Globe or Washington Post (the papers to which I have a subscript) in the app previously known as Twitter, I now have to sign in every time. This app keeps getting worse and worse.
This article brought back memories of when I worked at a Chinese restaurant during grad school. Peking ducks were delivered on Mondays, so that night family dinner was always a stir fry of the necks and heads. We’d give grandma the duck heads to chew on. bostonglobe.com/2023/08/22/art…
Even for the brilliant Randy Rainbow, this mash up of Don’t Arraign On His Parade and He’s So Indicted is exceptionally good.
Wow. Never seen it all put together like this. Definitely worth a watch.
