Palestine will free us all, hab ich 2023 das erste Mal gelesen und nicht verstanden. Mittlerweile verstehe ich es. Jeden einzelnen Tag wird der Genozid den Israel an den Palästinensern begeht ins Internet gestreamt. Wir sehen es, jeden Tag. Gleichzeitig belügen unsere Politiker und unsere Medien

ANTIFA sei terroristisch? -> Was in den USA angefangen hat, ist längst in Europa angekommen. (NE) Hört auf darüber zu lachen, die Merz Regierung wird die Erste sein die das Selbe in Deutschland fordert. Wer ANTIFA kriminalisiert, ist Faschist. Es gibt hier keine Schattierungen in Grau.

Every time economists discover occupations exist, a sociologist dies

Das ist sie: die Qualifikation nach der Promotion. Wer körperlich dazu in der Lage ist (oder eine Leiter hingestellt bekommt) klettert über die Brüstung oben rechts, alle anderen laufen irgendwann gegen die Wand. #WissZeitVG #IchBinHanna

WE COME FROM THE LAND OF THE ICE AND SNOW FROM THE MIDNIGHT SUN WHERE THE HOT SPRINGS BLOW

The German amateur radio station DP0GVN is currently on the air on ten meters and I am stuck in a seminar until 18. Cruel world.

In Hessen scannen Mitarbeiter*innen des Kultusministeriums Social-Media-Accounts von Schulen, ob dort mit Sonderzeichen gegendert wird und weist die Schulen dann darauf hin, dass die verboten sei. Alles normal.

The thing about the far-right leading the polls in Germany is that it is something you can feel as you go about the country each week - in Bavaria, in NRW, in Berlin. There are spikes in misanthropy, misogyny and racism that are as sharp as I have seen in 11 years here. It is a licence to cruelty.

Entzivilisierung und verrohte Bürgerlichkeit.

Nothing. I use it for nothing at all because AI is good at zero of the tasks I do regularly Honestly I don't even know what its web address is, is it like a 2000s style ChatGPT.com or something funkier like chat.g.pt

Germany knew - every step of the way.

If this is why I won‘t be hired or get funding so be it, but I honestly think the defunding of the humanities by the same government and its disastrous neoliberal hiring policies have already done that trick. If I‘m not in solidarity with scholars like Butler, why am I even a scholar to begin with.

I got my government masters at a U. Penn practitioner-taught school and it drove me batshit how this was the default. "The statistics say..." Ok but WHO collected those stats. With whose funding. What might they have been incentivized to overlook or disingenuously emphasize

When I see young people listening to folk or pop music, it’s very sad to me. They should be out there moshing to punk or metal, and yet they’re wasting their time “chilling” and vaping. So many concerning dynamics with this generation, but this one is alarming.

Does anyone in the bluesky #hamradio #ham #radio corner know what gain does an end-fed random wire antenna have and/or have a safety distance calculator to offer? Tnx

You ever tried to explain to a cis friend how the new harry potter tv show and audiobooks are directly funding the eradication of your human rights and trying not to sound like a mad conspiracy theorist

The "Prosecco Stormfront" label isn't just a joke. It's exactly the same radicalisation as when neo-nazis and incels target lonely teenage boys. Find isolated, unhappy people - and new and middle-aged mums often have very good reasons to be sad and angry – and give them someone to safely blame.

I saw someone on Tumblr post around the lines of "I was visiting my mom in Nantucket and saw whales in the harbor and at the same times reading Melville complain in Moby Dick that there were no more whales in these waters".

conservationist have re-established so many species over the past thirty years that it is kind of ridiculous. "this animal was down to, like, six individuals and now there's hundreds of them" is a very common story and it's because humans decided to work their asses off

German speakers waiting for the verb to drop at the end of the sentence 🔥

Germany is 23rd of 27 in real terms in education spending in the EU and its national discourse is struggling to figure out why the schools are shit. “It’s probably the immigrants,” journalists reassure their readers.

You’re think *you’re* depressed? Try being at the annual meeting of the American Political Science Association right now with 5,000 political scientists presenting their work on the state of democracy, public opinion, and media. They are also drinking heavily.

this is fundamentally about america's liberal elites not having the courage of their convictions, if they have convictions to begin with. they fetishize endless discussion and discourse and refuse to simply act.

they think liberalism is a set of rules for a discourse game, and not a fighting faith and a vision of the good

It's worth asking why every elite institution is issuing statements like this rather than pointing out the obvious fact that the institutional right commits and glorifies violence far more than the left. Is there a reason you feel you can't say that out loud? www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/o...

@espiers.bsky.social cooked.

basically a generational cohort split here where certain younger people intuitively grasp the irony poisoned context, and if you aren't already up to speed, very hard to explain

does it actually help anyone to initiate them into this horrific world of signification without significance? where the taking of human life is a form of twisted content marketing that persists because it works? I hate knowing how this stuff works

open.spotify.com/episode/2msd... Just leaving this here for no reason

it wasn't three arrows, it was the helldivers stratagem. just pure brainrot to cause pain

The biggest reason I believe the groyper war hypothesis over the left-wing assassination hypothesis is that I don't actually believe most people on the left had a clear sense of Charlie Kirk as a distinct person from Ben Shapiro.

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

Charlie Kirk war nicht "konservativ" oder "rechts-konservativ". Charlie Kirk war ein rechtsextremer Rassist, Sexist und Faschist. Jemand mit Einstellungen, die Teile der AfD moderat erscheinen lassen. Man muss sein politisches Projekt nicht beschönigen, um seine Ermordung zu verurteilen.

You're not gonna catch me having a take, but out of curiosity I asked my mom if she even knew who he was and she did not.

Interesting read on the elephant in the sociogenomics room - "the dilemmas of social responsibility in a field whose history has been used to perpetuate systemic racism & classism". Concerningly, the researchers interviewed only seem to be aware of historical, and not present, misuses of the field

Ein aus Deutschland stammender Angehöriger der israelischen Armee (IDF) soll an gezielten Tötungen unbewaffneter palästinensischer Zivilist*innen beteiligt gewesen sein. Gegen den Tatverdächtigen haben wir eine Strafanazeige bei der Bundesanwaltschaft eingereicht. www.ecchr.eu/pressemittei...

Small rant and I am sorry but I need to vent the frustration... for all its lacks and annoying invasive features, windows just works. #Linux does not. If it wasn't for stubborness and ideology on my side, I would have given up the linux experiment two days ago.

🧵 BOOK REVIEW: 'The Box' by Marc Levinson is all about shipping containers.🚢 No joke; it's the most interesting book about logistics that I have ever read. Its tagline is: 'How the Shipping Container Made the World Smaller and the World Economy Bigger'. Here are ten takeaways from The Box: 1/n

Here we go again. Including the obligatory statement by the mayor of Berlin saying that an appearance by Francesca Albanese ist "out of the question" and that he expects (!) the FU to "take a stand against antisemitism" (ie cancel the appearance). Mafia tactics www.morgenpost.de/berlin/artic...

The rise of radical-right parties doesn’t begin with the “left behind.” It begins with those most insulated from stigma. In Spain, the better-off broke the taboo first, making it easier for others to follow. 📄 Full paper here: osf.io/preprints/so... Feedback is more than welcome! 🙏

2019 national study found ~150 U.S. minors had gender-affirming surgeries via insurance claims. 97% were cis boys getting breast reductions for gynecomastia, not trans youth. No surgeries were done on kids under 12; procedures on ages 13–17 were nearly all chest-related. #TransYouth #JAMA

I keep seeing kids in their late teens and early 20s romanticize the year 2016. “It’s 2016 and you’re listening to this song…” Guys, nobody liked 2016. Until 2020, it was considered one of the worst years anyone had ever seen. Everyone cool died. It was fucking miserable. Stop it.

in academia you have to be young, promising and exploitable or old, accomplished and entrenched, we need more opportunities for the middle-aged, mid-career and just plain mid
