Holy crap. This is not going to end well.

Friends in Philly: Tomorrow @upenn.edu (Tuesday October 7, 12p) I'll be giving a public-facing talk about Elusive Cures, as part of the Penn library book series. Join me! RSVP below. www.library.upenn.edu/events/nicol...

"Morris, former spiritual advisor to President Trump and the former pastor at a megachurch in Texas, pleaded guilty to charges in a child sex abuse scandal on Oct. 2. He faced five counts of lewd indecent acts with a child..." www.kjrh.com/news/local-n...

This was excellent. Addressing economic inequality has little to do with economics. It’s about stopping those with more and more from continuing to take more and more. That’s enough of a reason to do something.

Yes! 💚💚

Trump just ordered and the U.S. Navy just carried out another summary execution of 4 persons suspected of drug running in international waters. I am at a loss of words, so I am re-upping my piece on this just posted yesterday… substack.com/home/post/p-...

So excited for this new park near my home in Vienna. Best city in the world. "While other federal states are privatizing shore and lake access, the shores along the Viennese waters are constantly being opened, expanded and massively upgraded." 💚✊🇦🇹 www.bankaustria.at/bank-austria...

Love this deconstruction.

We are delighted that many people use the Doughnut diagrams in their work - so pls do help us spread awareness of this new version by reposting this thread, many thanks!

‘There is still an awful lot left and that’s what we’ve got to fight to save.’ “I have days when I feel like not getting up, but it doesn’t last long. I guess because I’m obstinate. “I’m not going to give in. I’ll die fighting, that’s for sure.” ✊💚🌎🌱 www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

The amazing @ninajankowicz.com does a deep dive into the machinations of the Jim Jordan reality-inversion machine which recently claimed that Tech Giants were pressured by Biden admin into "censorship." They weren't. And they said so in front of Jordan's committee:

Wow. 100 years since the Scopes trial and the American anti-intellectualism from that time is obviously carrying on. This is both horrifying and strangely comforting to know. www.freethoughttoday.com/free/ed-lars...

Couldn't be clearer now I suppose. And yet, some "serious" pundits who are "nuanced" will find a way to turn the obvious into a complicated unanswerable question.

Great talk as always by @davidsloanwilson.bsky.social. Good to see what he's up to for making cooperation work better.

Good message, Dwight! (Not about the King at all.) www.nytimes.com/2025/09/24/o...

I've listened to a lot of Pitchfork Economics over the years so it was a real pleasure to be a guest on the show. Listen here: buff.ly/jQUTct6

At the root of our problems….

We need 10,000 signatures to get the Government to respond to our call for a National Climate Resilience Plan. We need to protect communities from climate impacts. Can you help us get there? Sign now. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Hard to express how bizarre and frustrating it is to hear these non-academics press their hallucinatory visions of what campuses are like. Truly no relationship to the reality.

Tragic, horrific. Most people have no idea, sadly, what dire news this actually is. The living planet’s boundaries are being ruptured. The safe operating space for humanity, the ‘doughnut’, is ceasing to exist, in real time.

I just posted my second essay on Substack, the newsletter is called "Critique & Praxis." I explore the ideology of the Heritage Foundation and all its internal contradictions, as a way to lay the groundwork for critique. You can read it here: bernardharcourt.substack.com/p/the-ideolo...

“Russia can sustain extremely high levels of casualties and losses in human lives. They don’t care about people’s lives.” However, “it is painful for them to lose money...” This is how the oil industry became the Ukrainians’ most important target."

Copenhagen! Join me for Doughnut Economics Circus this Sunday 28th in City Hall - we're taking on the Battle for the Biosphere - Nature vs Finance. There will be clowns, acrobats, and some deep change. Tickets are free, sign up here, check out the whole fab festival, and come play lnkd.in/eatkH7YJ

WAAAA — Weakening America Again And Again

And in members? Wow this is huge. Great to see this tipping point finally happening.

Zack Polanski’s first weeks have shifted the Green Party’s centre of gravity. Polanski has rebranded the Green Party....to the centre of left-wing organising, and now the best-placed vehicle to face Reform UK." faultline.media/zack-polansk...

There's always a grift...

Excellent list of questions for understanding why we trust some science more than others. (More on this in my epistemology paper coming soon.)

Just last night I talked with a European academic who is scared to go to America. I couldn't tell them they were wrong. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/21/o...

Growth at all cost will cost us everything.

Just joined my first UK political party. #GoGreen! The times they are a changing.

www.volksoper.at/produktion/a... Saw this incredible show on Friday based on Vienna's Volksoper putting a show on while the Nazi's rose up and annexed Austria. Just a brilliant mix of silly musicals juxtaposed with heartbreaking oppression. Eerily prescient for today's fascism and genocide.

I'm near speechless. @awaisaftab.bsky.social heard was I was trying to say (and added his own insights). Thank you for engaging with Elusive Cures so thoughtfully, Awais. I'm so appreciative.

No evidence of association between Charlie Kirk shooting and left-wing groups so far, according to officials. Interesting chart here in the NBC piece of ideology and domestic terrorism, 70% comes from far-right groups. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

New blog post! Review of “Sapiens” by Yuval Noah Harari (2/5) www.evphil.com/blog/review-... This covers the agricultural revolution and lots of examples of poor cooperation towards shared prosperity. These are lessons we still need to learn from and thankfully evolutionary history can help.

Yet more compelling evidence to support @greenparty.org.uk policy that public services should be in public hands 👇

Frightening to be dealing with such epistemological zombies. (Oops, I did it in the other direction.)

Recently I joined PIIE's Policy for the Planet, where host Monica de Bolle and I discussed how attacks on climate science contribute to polarization and the demonization of science, and how to combat these trends. Listen wherever you get your podcasts: policyfortheplanet.com/how-to-comba...

New episode at midnight - and it's a pretty important complex conversation about radicalisation. 👇🏼

Thanks to the Guardian for the shout out today! You can follow our podcast on @boldpolitics.bsky.social and catch up on the first episodes here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

Just posted a full intro essay to Hegel 13/13 that explores the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 and family resemblances with Hegel on the family, civil society, and state - and argues for a different path forward.

This deserves to have way more than 6k views It's beyond time to move from economic horror stories to stories for life www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5Yr...

Same guy who lied that immigrants were eating pets. Actual statistics show he's lying here, too.

“There are many guilty parties in the rise of political violence. But to our minds, among the biggest culprits are the universities.” www.thefp.com/p/je-suis-ch... TFP being ridiculous. Absolutely no acknowledgment of other sides. That is the real cause of violence—when words no longer work.

“Who did ever say, except by way of irony, that such a one was a man of great virtue, but an egregious blockhead?” — (surprisingly) David Hume (and NOT Charlie Brown)

This should be the No. 1 story right now. Without due process or any finding of law, the U.S. just extinguished 11 civilian lives. www.theunpopulist.net/p/trumps-sta...
