More terrible abusive treatment from @WestJet the absolute worst airline I've ever flown. After cancelling my flight and promising me a credit card refund they gave me "travel bank" credit instead. I never want to fly you again @WestJet. You're the worst. I want my money back.

1869 article attacking the trade in photographs of notorious celebrities. "We have abolished the pillory and set up photography." #photography #celebrity

Which fall color should I choose? Cheese milk lid, astringent dirty tea or ice impermeable feeling?

Even I may not be up to the task of recreating this historic recipe. (Calmouk=Kalmyk, a Buddhist Mongolic people from the lower Volga River. This soup encountered on an 1874 trip from Astrakhan to Orenburg.) #foodhistory

this book is pretty gay--need to check the index and make sure there are an equal number of entries under lesbian. I've got trans history in the book too, but realizing there's no index entry for bi- Better fix that!

Proofing my index and enjoying the range of topics in Lustful Appetites: from Saint Basil, to the Battle Creek Sanitarium, to Honoré de Balzac, to Djuna Barnes, to James Baldwin and James Beard #histsex #foodhistory

In new heights of incompetence, I just got an alert from @WestJet to check into my flight. And when I checked my West Jet app it said that my flight had been cancelled a minute ago (it was cancelled at least 16 hours ago). Truly cannot fathom the depths of their failures.

I think it's hilarious that if you post about how terrible @westjet is spammers immediately respond to you but nary a word from West Jet itself! And by hilarious, I mean, I'm pulling my hair out.

Nothing like complaining about the abysmal treatment I'm getting from @WestJet and having West Jet bots like my xeets. How about you hire customer service people? You cancelled both legs of my roundtrip ticket to Japan and have cost me thousands of dollars.

She's unstoppable! Another well-deserved recognition for Jamey's outstanding work 🎉

Paperback release day! Did I mention that I got matching tattoos of the hands on the cover with my brother and co-author Aram Sinnreich?
