Quiet reminder, as exhibit A in this theory, that you can’t tell a disabled person’s support needs from what they look like or their online presence.

My problem with everything is that I know For A Fact that the purpose of life is frivolity. It is to fool around & pursue joy.

"Fighting with the Swede, To free our fatherland from chains"

Om politiker uttalar (medvetna eller omedvetna lögner) så sprid dem inte vidare. Även osanna budskap sätter sig nämligen när vi exponeras för dem, och har de väl satt sig så kommer de att påverka vår bild av verkligheten. Det kallas för the illusory truth effect och påverkar mer än man vill tro.

This is fabulous! ❤️

It's easy to miss given the collapse of the US, but this basic data from @adamtooze.bsky.social, on China's solar growth, would on its own signal a change in the global geographies of power.

And if you do arrive in person I'll be on the bridge leading to the main conference hall to help you find your way. Starting tomorrow afternoon with coffee and networking sessions etc.

Meta har idag raderat instagramsidan för Stockholms äldsta bögklubb SLM. Värt att påminna om att Metas queercensur alltjämt fortsätter. Här är ett urval av bilder, tagna på Stockholm Leather Social, som Meta har censurerat sedan tidigare.

My most boomer political stance is how I dislike 'classism' being bundled as a form of oppression as part of a longer list. To me this is a category error, since class describes an entire kind of oppression based on material exploration and inequality.

The theory of Pierre Bourdieu, that the actions of people can be understood as largely expressions of their position in fields of power, is depressing. Even more depressing is how accurately it allows us to predict how people in power do actually behave.

Playwright Dennis Potter, dying of cancer, named his tumour 'Rupert.'

As promised, my thoughts on religion as a system of production.

In Communist Bulgaria in the 1980s, my parents would invite friends over and spend hrs telling political jokes. I wasn’t allowed in the room because they were afraid I’d retell one of the jokes somewhere and get the family in trouble. The US isn’t there yet but still, WTH?! Pay attn and push back!

The far-right majority in the Dutch parliament (BBB-FvD-JA21-PVV-SGP-VVD) has just designated “Antifa” a terrorist organization. This is a dark day for Dutch democracy and the final nail in the coffin of the VVD as a serious liberal democratic party.

My masters is in rural development, which is an economics-adjacent field of study usually closely linked to increasing things like crop yields. But my aim is a project which is just as practical in nature, while also effectively being part of the tradition of Critical Disability Theory.

Leaving twitter is a no-brainer. Unfortunately staying is also a no-brainer as well.

General pattern in regime change: the comedy gets better and then it gets banned.

I waited because I wanted to update it with thoughts about how the habitus of Bourdieu fits into all this, but eventually I just didn't have time.

As promised, my thoughts on religion as a system of production.

It is indeed empirically unusual (inductive). But looking at the dynamics of imperial violence that the US has externalised and internalised I would say it is not *surprising* (deductive).

Thousands of people have marched through London to protest against US President Donald Trump's state visit to Britain as he was treated to royal pageantry at Windsor Castle

Style lessons from Robert Redford, one of the most stylish men in the last century. 🧵

my cousin was on morning walk with me and his wife at marina beach in Chennai and going on about how Varuna is a dead god so no need to worry about sea gods in India and he fell and sprained his ankle exactly 1 second later

The European Commission has formally proposed to suspend the trade-related aspects of the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which could cost €227 million in extra duties. The proposal needs a qualified majority among member states, which isn't guaranteed.

When Marx refers to 'the Money System' (Fetish of Commodity, Capital v1, p177) this means mercantillism understood as bullionism, right?

Same except I'm supposed to be reading the Grundrisse

Finally the Republic that Plato wanted.

What I take from Macbeth is that he would have won if he and his wife had practiced better sleep hygiene, send LinkedIn post

I Sollefteå har vi hemsidan: https://www.gosolleftea.se/ Den här ska uppdateras och förnyas. Syftet är att öka intresset för att flytta till Sollefteå. Vad hade du velat veta om en ort för att kunna ta ställning om du ska flytta dit?

The most cringe thing about Bakunin is how he basically did the 19C equivalent of buying Nechaev's NFT

We should have listened to Myra more.

In 2015 Sweden's government slammed the border shut because they were scared of how 'expensive' lone child refugees would be. Ten years later more of these lone child refugees have jobs than their Sweden-born counterparts.
