Israel might as well say "There is a ceasefire in between our airstrikes" www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

I was today years old when i found out who #SydneySweeney is and that's from people who react to people reacting to an ad about jeans they are never going to wear.

Ukrainian women share their stories of sexual violence by Russian soldiers, with hundreds of cases recorded. The real number is much higher, as many remain silent. 🧵 1/7 👇

Excellent commentary by @kityates.bsky.social and the need for scientists to not stay silent at a time when the principles of what we have worked for are being attacked. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Just a small text I wrote trying to work through my feelings about what's happening in Greece in the last few weeks, months, years. #Tempi #Τεμπη_συγκαλυψη #τεμπη_έγκλημα allswellfriendswell.substack.com/p/call-me-wh...

1,032 Studies in 5 Years: How War shaped Tigray’s Science a 🧵 #Tigray #academia #AcademicChatter

Proverbs as Protest: How Words Heal War’s Wounds When bombs fell, Dr. Tesfaye turned to elders and proverbs. ‘For you to be well, let your neighbour be well’—how proverbs rebuild trust. A🧵 #Tigray #Academia #AcademicChatter

A drone strike cost Tewelde his eye. It didn’t stop him from studying Tigray’s famine. ‘Research here is survival,’ he says. A thread🧵

If #research is trying to solve societal problems, then it would be a good idea to look at the research to find out what those problems are. After the discussions I had with researchers from Mekelle University, I dove in and analysed ~1000 papers to find out open.substack.com/pub/lefteris...

Am I the only one hoping that with the impending ban of TikTok in the US, internet content might experience a shift towards something that requires a bit more than a 5 second attention span? www.independent.co.uk/tech/tiktok-...

🌍 Where research showcases Resilience: #Tigray Meet Dr. Tewelde, a researcher rebuilding hope in the aftermath of war. From mentoring students to tackling food insecurity, his story is one of determination, humanity, and transformation. The first article can be found below. #Scicomm

Right at the time when I think that things can't get more bizarre, reality proves me wrong. What sort of timeline are we in, when the president of the US suggests annexation of Canada and Greenland, and there is "serious" political analysis on the merits of such action, EVEN by "liberals"/lefties?

Spent new years week in the north of Italy. Ate a lot of pizza/pasta but I said, "You're on holiday all good". Did my first run-much slower than usual but makes sense... second run of the year last night, twisted my ankle on 5th km. The marathon prep isn't going super well! <3

Sharing this for the #NewYear again. Always a good idea for some people to buy a new soul in 2025... youtu.be/LKNqk8low2A?...

When I spend some time on twitter, I tend to believe that maybe humanity wasn't ready for a medium that allows every person in the world to share their opinions in a blink of an eye with everyone else.

Might be Christmas, but keeping the owl happy is still important #JoinIn. Don't forget to keep your streak today 🙂

Kahless is here chilling and participating in #Joinin

Hey #JoinIn fam. I am glad to see this initiative is also here on BlueSky. How is everyone doing tonight? If anyone wants someone to talk to tonight (or any other night for that matter) reach out 🙂

Haven't spent Christmas in Greece in a decade now. Made my house smell like Christmas in Greece. Melomakarona ftw ❤️

I sort of consider a "culture crime" that Fair To Midland don't exist anymore. This band should have achieved more ❤️ youtu.be/NusH9Ksyjzs?...

Woke up this morning and saw announcements of a concert by Toto and a concert by Robert Plant in 2025.

#DeezerFlowAdventures today with the Finnish band Viima. I had put their new album on my "to listen" playlist but since other things happened in the meantime I had forgotten. First album in 15 years with Äiti Maan Lapset becoming a favorite [= deezer.page.link/747c9hA9v1gs...

Having to scheme through hundreds of pages of machine translated Thai governmental documents is not something that I thought I would be doing when I started my PhD in material science, but here I am... #research Should I learn Thai?

Four friends trying to just make sense of what it means to work, grow, live in 2024-2025. As a person that isn't very happy with what the internet things "a man" should be I'm happy to launch this substance with my friends. open.substack.com/pub/allswell...

BREAKING NEWS!!! COMPANY HIRES YOUNG PEOPLE TO WORK ALONGSIDE OLD PEOPLE TO MAKE GAME! In other news, this morning, the sun rose from the east. insider-gaming.com/half-of-assa...

This morning's work buddy Nothing like a little Bowie to make you move off your ass :-) deezer.page.link/RuYRrTEngesT...

This weekend I was planning my NYE holiday in the north of Italy. I am not surprised then that this morning I have been retracing the Rock Progressivo Italiano greats, starting with Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso <3 deezer.page.link/cvaTArJF4Vs8...

Ok getting started with Apache Superset today. While I eventually managed to install (probably badly) on OpenSUSE, I am wondering why there are very little noob guides for useful tools like that.

1/ I assumed that passive use of social media would be detrimental to mental health in comparison to being an active user. Maybe that's just because I've seen that lurking online is not great for my mood. However, I saw this paper and that's not exactly the case academic.oup.com/jcmc/article...

#DeezerFlowAdventures for the 22nd of August bring us to Norway. #Airbag - A Day at the Beach is an album I missed in 2020 (I wonder what was happening then). The album sounds atmospheric while beautifully deconstructing the influences of Pink Floyd and alt-rock. deezer.page.link/pCrFYDPeMXGY...

#DeezerFlowAdventures for Monday 19 August. Lovely Australian #ProgressiveMetal band that I had never heard about. Excellent female-fronted metal with a nice balance of aggressiveness and melody with the keys blending beautifully. #Acolyte - #Entropy deezer.page.link/rdHZV8Zcsqng...

Statharas: What? Fuck me! You can't say that I'm not a crowd pleaser

#DeezerFlowAdventures for this Friday sent me all the way to Germany. #Novalis - #Brandung I wasn't super enthused with the first half of the album but Sonnewelde was symphonic prog goodness! #deezer #progressiverock deezer.page.link/w2CdeKaVf2WR...

#DeezerFlowAdventures for Tuesday! It's clearly summer here, but it's always a good opportunity to listen to #MostlyAutumn. I haven't consistently followed their releases over the years but they were always pleasant. #WhiteRainbow is quite beautiful. deezer.page.link/mo1hmMcUSFqT...

#DeezerFlowAdventures On this fine Monday, #Deezer presented me with #LeavingEden by #Antimatter. While I have listened to some songs from this band I don't remember I ever heard a full album. So far this is excellent deezer.page.link/Wq5rmHEnR5FP...

#DeezerFlowAdventures Sometimes I surprise myself with the gaping holes in my music knowledge. Of course I've listened to a lot of songs from this album, but never the full album in one go! #JanisJoplin - #Pearl deezer.page.link/uJbef7HozuT3...

Happy international cat day apparently! ❤️

#DeezerFlowAdventures Today's adventure made me feel like I need to grow a beard. #ValleyoftheSun - #VolumeRock #MusicSky deezer.page.link/R1nGf8EjC9hd...

#DeezerFlowAdventures Love it when the adventure brings me to a record released this year! Let's go #TheAristocrats - #Duck #Deezer #Music #ProgressiveMusic deezer.page.link/yg61NgABKNRH...

#DeezerFlowAdventures Today, I realized I have listened to several Limp Bizkit songs, but I don't remember listening to a full album. There might be a good reason for this, but at least for today we'll go with "Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water." deezer.page.link/8MkSZco95NwD...

I like listening to full albums when I listen to music. But I don't always have inspiration. So I'll use deezers flow and listen to songs until I come across a song from an album that I haven't heard in each entirety ever. So for today All 'N All-Earth Wind &Fire deezer.page.link/vmyftwBbbX5w...

Zoom meeting with a new collaborator in Vietnam Her: "Hello, my name is Yen, it's pronounced like the Japanese currency" Me: "Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Lefteris it is pronounced... not easily"

Every time I am on a train I get the urge to listen to Jaga Jazzist. #music #jazz #deezer deezer.page.link/sGt1o6sGY2yq...

This morning's work buddy - Magick Brother & Mystic Siter - TAROT part I Interesting Psychedelic / Space Rock proposition from Spain :-) #music #progrock #psychedelicrock deezer.page.link/r5oYnPSgw2ys...

Friday's work buddy Air -Talkie Walkie That's the French way of saying Walkie Talkie. Still feeling the effects of their concert 2 days ago :-) #Air #music deezer.page.link/DCooniJY1wp7...

Today's work buddy is Maternity Beat by the magnificent Hedvig Mollestad and the Trondheim Jazz Orchestra #MaternityBeat amazes, and excites with its deep musicality, diversity, and the ability to create soundscapes using the full talents of all musicians #music deezer.page.link/tUtRSnd4US11...

Today's work buddy #Haken - The Mountain While I've always enjoyed their albums, this is still my favourite. #progressivemusic #progressivemetal #deezer deezer.page.link/aSGFJN5mfoU8...

Today's work buddy. #Karnivool - Themata I'll be seeing them live next week so it's good time to refresh ;-) #music #progressiverock #progressivemusic #metalmusic deezer.page.link/zqtCmZ94oNSS...
