Goodbye Export Controls, Hello Chinese Import Controls | "China has unveiled a new strategy to counter American sanctions — slapping restrictions on the sales of US imports." @ellyrostoum.bsky.social

It’s a new era in economic warfare. Take a read at my latest analysis on #China's new strategy to counter American sanctions — slapping restrictions on the sales of US imports 👇 #TechPol @cepa.org cepa.org/article/good...

I hate to say this, but my undergrad students have consistently outperformed my graduate students on their writing assignments...by far. We are studying soft power in the China/US context, so I had my students watch Wish Dragon, and reflect on the subtleties of soft power through movies, TV, etc.

To the people who know me (well or just in each other's orbits), I am here for you if you ever want to talk or just sit in silence. No judgement. Love is the answer ❤️ #WorldSuicidePreventionDay

Aid convoys attempting to enter al Fashir have come under fire by the RSF since last year. "There is no aid entering al Fashir. All of this points towards a full-blown famine."

We don’t need deep-sea mining, or its environmental harms. Here’s why theconversation.com/we-dont-need...

In the 13th century, Muslim architects & masons designed stone tessellations in mosques, whose shadows would cast different pictures throughout the day, following the movement of the 🌞 They painted with shadows & sunshine 🤯 Imagine the sheer artistry & mathematical precision. No AI or computers! 🤯

People who can be described as "vanilla" fascinate me. It must be so simple to be them. For some of us, our subconscious processed cheering for PSG, celebrating 4th of July & Algeria' war of independence, advocating for US hegemony, and celebrating (& not) Ashura - all in the same 48 hrs. #super💻

So proud of my student here! Look how the student weaves Said, Fanon, Spivak, and Foucault, with the Battle of Algiers example, and hits key pillars in the exercise of hegemony: culture, violence, territory, identity, demographic control, biopolitics...👌 A+ This is why I adore teaching so much 🙏

ahhhhhh... when the students do the readings, watch the lectures, and...get the nuances! ❤️ Yes! Any good realist should also be a constructivist!

Hey God, could Zohran, Tish, and all the queer people behind them rule us, please 🙏🏼 Amen.

This is an actual headline from @bloomberg.com 😂 khalas then...let's have a hot commie fall, hot commie winter, hot commie thanksgiving, hot commie Christmas, hot commie new year.. but especially, hot commie Inauguration Day! 😎 @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Congratulations to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for running an authentic and perfectly executed campaign. He stayed true, and it paid off. The irony is that nobody is more disappointed and terrified than the liberal establishment.

JUST IN: Khalil left the Louisiana detention center where he's been since March, when ICE agents arrested him over his pro-Palestinian activism. A federal judge ruled the government could no longer detain him.

The New York Police Department is investigating threats against Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, one of the leading candidates in the city’s Democratic mayoral primary.

Perhaps it is cynical of me, or perhaps I have just lived in DC for far too long now... but I caught myself watching @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's interviews & every time he was asked a tough question, a question about a 'sensitive' topic... www.youtube.com/watch?v=GT96...

Mark my words, it will burst from the quietest place.

I hate to disagree with @abuaardvark.bsky.social, but this is the US abstaining from drawing a red line.

Students, what did Professor Rostoum say? I should go back to my forecasting days...🛢️ The street has been too quiet. "The summer of discontent/the summer of fury" is upon us 👇 More soon... apnews.com/article/stat...

The @vertexproject.bsky.social has BY FAR, AND HANDS-DOWN, THE BEST SWAG IN THE INDUSTRY. It's curated and thoughtfully designed, and just 👌 A+ The t-shirt and hoodie are sooo soft. And I am convinced that the Vertex pens make editing books better and faster ✨

Another great @sleuthcon.bsky.social yesterday! Fantastic research from @alex.leetnoob.com on AI-fueled SEO spambots & @milenkowski.bsky.social on NK threat actors. And a warm merci to @hultquist.bsky.social for making it possible for my Johns Hopkins students to attend!

I'm headed down to DC for @sleuthcon.bsky.social ! Everybody is signed up for the #synapse workshop / challenge events right? It's not too late! 😁

Dreams of grandeur much? 😂

The only way to describe that goal....ouuufffff...🔥😍 Achraf Hakimi - what a legend! I now understand why my coaches had us do 1 touches to death 😊 #UEFA #UCLfinal

Ok I take it back. Watching Beckham clearly not care about the commentary or Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible stories, and cheer for PSG, while Thierry Henry is fangirling over Tom is quite hilarious 😊👌

Why do Paramount and CBS think that we want to see Tom Cruise and Beckham chat instead of full screen on the actual GAME?! #UEFA #UCLfinal The pass was golden, and that smooth Hakimi touch… ⚽️ 🥅 ❤️

Being الحكومة is so much work…

Languages are cool ❤️ Distracting an anxious mind trick for me is to watch a movie in a foreign language that I don’t speak well, but with subtitles in a different foreign language that I do speak well. It gets my brain to focus on mastering two things at the same time that don’t come innately.

Feeling when you are grading...

Ahh...when the shiest student writes the most badass essay!👇 My goal when I teach is to make abstract theory apparent in every day. That's why I have students read novels in theory class. I grew up with professor parents who argued about teaching pedagogy over dinner. I hope I made them proud ❤️ 😊

I am a professor who encourages her students to embrace AI tools, such as ChatGPT. It is the future. And part of educating is teaching students how to probe, ask better questions, and refine their interactions with AI. I didn't expect this👇🫠 though I admire the honesty. #Grading
