So historians on here are calling themselves ‘histodons.’ Lit scholars, are we litodons, textodons, litaphants, booktodons, or something else altogether? The historians always get the best names (e.g. twitterstorians). 😤

Let's talk moderation tools, #TwitterMigration #NewHere.
You can block and mute, specific accounts or whole instances. You can also mute specific threads/conversations.
Muting means you will not see posts from account or instance, and that a thread/conversation will not show up in your notifications even if you're mentioned.
Blocking does the same, plus the blocked person/instance doesn't get to see your posts either.
Don't be shy, block/mute early and often. It's okay. It's self-care.

Planning for #AcWriMo starting tomorrow with a good cup of Taiwanese oolong gifted by friends 🍵
In the works: one book chapter to write/polish/submit, one research project to redraft entirely, and one book review to write up 📝
Whenever possible, I'll also aim to do a daily page on an ongoing #translation project
This year, I also incorporated sleep, yoga, and swim/bike/run sessions in my daily goals to make sure these don't fall to the side 🏊♀️

Hey ! #Introduction
Je suis Peter ! Médiéviste, je travaille sur les #Condottières dans l'Italie des #Renaissances, en particulier de Bartolomeo Colleoni (≈ 1392/1395 - 1475) auquel j'ai consacré mes recherches de Master 🇮🇹⚔️
Après un an en Lorraine et l'obtention du concours de bibliothécaire AS, j'ai rejoint la Bibliothèque nationale de France en tant que gestionnaire de conservation 📜
Ici, ce sera donc suivi des recherches, #histoiredulivre #histoiremédiévale et plein d'autres choses encore !
I'm a PhD student studying exploration & empire in the Sino-Tibetan borderlands 19th-20thC at Birkbeck College, University of London. #Histodons
