@nichecanada.bsky.socialReposted by @jessicamdewitt.bsky.socialOur NiCHE Conversation with @thornleynfi.bsky.social is now available on YouTube!
Thornley joined @jessicamdewitt.bsky.social to think critically about the efficacy of “queer joy" and the concept of a climate-class conjuncture.

@jessicamdewitt.bsky.socialDon't miss my picks for environmental history worth reading from September!
After 12+ years of doing these lists monthly, I'm considering renaming the "#EnvHist Worth Engaging" because I am featuring audio and visual resources more and more. Thoughts?
@jessicamdewitt.bsky.socialThis month I feature @sprucehen.bsky.social, @placesjournal.bsky.social, @sayandey1989.bsky.social, @carsoncenter.bsky.social, @michaelchilders.bsky.social, @brendenwrensink.bsky.social, @writingwestward.bsky.social, and more!

@jacquelyngill.bsky.socialReposted by @jessicamdewitt.bsky.socialIn the last couple of years, we've seen multiple critical collections (museums, herbaria) close. The IUCN--the global authority on the status of biodiversity--recently published on how important these kinds of facilities are in conservation. Every day, the dead are working to protect the living.
@jessicamdewitt.bsky.socialYES
@stillots1.bsky.socialReposted by @jessicamdewitt.bsky.socialHaving immersed myself in letters from the public to Canadian finance ministers, 1917-71, I can confirm that exposure to "stupid" was an occupational hazard Esp in the 30s-50s, their offices were remarkably patient in composing substantive, patient replies Social credit tried their patience tho.
@jessicamdewitt.bsky.socialPairs well with my interview with @joewhitson.bsky.social on wilderness and marketing from last year - niche-canada.org/2025/07/24/w...
