Dog loving, art loving, retired academic. Florida and NY resident in reverse.

Sometimes provocative but not argumentative.

Mostly a booster so turn off boosts if they aren't your thing.

I sometimes boost to make myself a reading list for later, rather than to endorse.

"Dad, I’m hungry."

"Hi, hungry. I’m Dad."

There's an example of the beloved form of humor: The Dad Joke.

But what makes something a dad joke instead of just a corny joke? We've got two folklorists answering that question and looking at the history of the 'art' form. Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there, funny or not!

Leave a favorite in the replies, so we can all groan together

@blackmastodon
Can you participate in a thought experiment with me? The posts warning about fascism are good, but I'm wondering what you think fascism actually looks like. Give a thought, and list what it looks like. Don't just say "the end of democracy." List what the concrete changes will be and make it local. "In my town/city/county/state the following will happen......" Think about it before replying. Not just for .

@fulanigirl @blackmastodon This is such an interesting question. One thing that occurs to me is that it will be "fascism plus." Everybody has an arsenal now, not just the military & militias. Fascism & Confederacy Redux, all with toxic masculine vigilante improvisation.

I'm greatly looking forward to the in next week, but very annoyed that the ECPR are only advertising it on Twitter.

Who else is going? I have not been to Prague before - any tips on what I should not miss?

@landwehr_c @academicchatter @politicalscience It is a great city to walk & gawk, and ride around on the back of trams just for the heck of it, if the tail of the tram is still alot of window.
