Wir haben die Klimakrise, die seit Beginn der Industrialisierung kumuliert. Wir haben die Geburtenkrise, die seit den frühen 70er Jahren kumuliert. Wir haben den Kapitalismus, dessen Wesen es ist, in seiner späten Phase zu kollabieren. Diese drei Krisen verursachen eine Unmenge von Subkrisen.

Full of redactions, the thousands of newly released Epstein files seem unlikely to end any Epstein conspiracy theorizing. Likely, they will do the opposite, @cwarzel.bsky.social argues.

The release of the Epstein files left many of his victims disappointed with how the Justice Department handled it, Sarah Fitzpatrick reports. “America is getting a look tonight into how we have all felt for years,” one survivor said.

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

Es war übel! @gildasahebi.bsky.social durfte dem Gespräch zwischen @janboehm.bsky.social und und dem schwafelnden sogenannten Kulturstaatsminister Wolfram Weimer lauschen. Der seinen Aufstieg auch einem FalseBaLanz und einer Maischberger, wegen der sogenannten Ausgewogenheit, zu verdanken hat.

I truly wish all of the German Feuilleton bros who have been fawning over Thiel would read @adriandaub.bsky.social‘s piece in the Guardian and take some time to think long and hard about the fact why they believe Thiel to be a brilliant intellectual genius.

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

Ich frage mich ja wirklich, wieso der Bundeskanzler vor einem Millionenpublikum eine Aussage macht, die dermaßen leicht zu widerlegen ist. (1/3) #Bürgergeld #30Milliarden

Auf die Frage, was er zur Kritik sage, dass die völlige Streichung von Bürgergeld und Mietzahlungen Obdachlosigkeit produziere, antwortet Friedrich Merz, dass in Deutschland jeder, der ein Dach über dem Kopf benötige, auch eines bekommt, und das ist die unverfrorenste Lüge seit langem.

It is (almost) funny to me how, for decades, we've seen the decline of appreciation and funding for liberal arts (and subsequently enrollments), and for 10 to 15 years, we've also seen the rise of (technocratic) authoritarianism, but people won't connect the dots. www.startribune.com/liberal-arts...

One thing one learns as an academic is to stay in one’s lane. But in alarming times like these, rife with the dangers of knowledge-destruction, perhaps we shouldn’t always heed that… Erasures of the history of slavery impact all of us. open.substack.com/pub/humanhis...

Academic authors, here's a peek into the black box of journal publishing from an journal editor if you can bear it:

There are about six answers to this. 1. The clothing in the Regency is not fugly, and much of the Victorian era clothing is. THE SLEEVES. *shudders* I say this as someone who writes in the Victorian era.

Last night, about 60 Chicago activists and organizers gathered to discuss Trump's threatened military occupation of our city. Our convo centered around a worksheet that some friends and I put together this week—a tool that can help us build and strengthen local networks of support and protection.

Some nattering nabobs were shocked by Friday’s FBI Bolton raid to realize that Trump actually is a fascist after all But he spent all of 2024 telling America exactly how he’d be a dictator- and now is keeping that promise My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

Dear @washingtonpost.com: these two paragraphs are absolute malpractice. Utterly disgraceful. You use total counts, not rates … for the THIRD BIGGEST CITY IN THE US. Of COURSE it has a high total. And rates “have come down” … with a link, but no number. Down FIFTY PERCENT IN FOUR YEARS.
