After what seemed like two months of intolerable cold, we’re finally looking forward to some milder weather this weekend with the high in mid-20s and some light snow to tidy to tidy up the neighborhood.
This week was hectic, but a mild weekend offers a great chance to hunker down, read, write, and recharge for another busy week.
In the meantime, here are some quick hits and varia:
- It’s pretty rare for an archaeological issue to reach the Supreme Court, but here you go.
- Check out Gods of the Biblical World.
- The state of history.
- Met on Wikimedia Commons.
- Reimagining the Digital Monograph; I uploaded a book to Topicgraph from The Digital Press, Mobilizing the Past, and here are the results.
- Archaeology and Assassin’s Creed.
- I wrote this piece on blogging 10 years ago; Jason Kottke has been blogging for 20 years.
- Coffee lids.
- And, along similar lines, the blue pallet.
- Here’s me talking about North Dakota Quarterly on Prairie Public Radio.
- We forget most of what we read.
- What I’m reading: I. Stengers, Another Science is Possible: A Manifesto for Slow Science. 2018.
- What I’m listening to: Sonny Rollins, Way Out West. (H/t to Pitchfork for reminding me of this gem!).
