We're recruiting 2 PhD candidates in human geography here in Uppsala, one position focused on urban/housing issues and one in political ecology. Please spread the word/repost etc. Being a PhD student in Sweden is a good gig.

They want you to feel hopeless and believe that nothing can improve.

The people of Minneapolis including dozens of faith leaders are out in -20°C today & hundreds of businesses are closing their doors to tell ICE to "get the f--- out of our city" Send some ♥️ to these amazing and inspiring Minnesotans who will not succumb to this violent occupation of their community

It’s hard to accurately describe what is happening in Minneapolis without sounding crazy. Unmarked rental vans all over the city, with people in military gear and no id jumping out of them to take captive anyone who looks nonwhite or who makes political speech they disagree with.

Hace 10 años había un amplio consenso en la izquierda contra los tratados de libre comercio. Se generaban redes, discurso, política y las manifestaciones contra el TTIP o CETA eran gigantescas. Hoy hay gente de izquierdas que defiende el UE-Mercosur sin ponerlo en la más mínima duda. Es desolador.

De acuerdo y, propongo algo mejor: inversión de fondos europeos para desarrollar una red social 100% pública

El #MapaFosasRTVE es el primer mapa audiovisual con las 6.000 fosas comunes de la guerra civil y el Franquismo. Los restos de más de 17.000 víctimas se han podido recuperar, pero otras 12.000 personas podrían ser aún exhumadas. rtve.es/noticias/fos...

¿Debería ser ilegal tener más de 2 viviendas? 🏠🚫 La mitad de la población cree que sí, que hay que poner un tope. ¿Limitar cuántas viviendas puede acumular una persona podría ser la forma de frenar la especulación y acabar con la crisis de vivienda?

Estaría guay que los responsables de la simplificación administrativa también lo fueran de sus consecuencias directas

Israel bombed a hospital. Rescue workers and reporters rushed to recover the dead and the wounded. Israel bombed the hospital again. Live on TV. Read that again. Our government’s legacy will be its complicity in crimes against humanity. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

🚨SHOCKING: The Israeli military’s own data shows that 83% of people killed in Gaza have been civilians.⁣ ⁣ And now a UN-backed body has confirmed the famine is entirely man-made.⁣ ⁣ Governments must stop arming Israel and back an immediate ceasefire.⁣ ⁣ #StopTheGenocide #StopArmingIsrael

Qué todos y todas sepamos qué se está votando en Andalucía cuando se apuesta por una derecha que esta reduciendo una de nuestras joyas, la sanidad, a un servicio cada vez más deteriorado y a costa de las personas más vulnerables. Lamentable. elpais.com/espana/andal...

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

maybe we shouldn't be disappearing students via secret police for opposing the actions of a state that behaves in this way

In a new article titled "The Eventfulness of Place," @conflictgeog.bsky.social argues "places are not just constituted by relations. The opposite is also true: places make relations." Read the article here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00167428.2025.2467747

Retirees have been marching every Wednesday in Argentina to protest pension cuts; today they were joined by unions and soccer clubs (the clubs have neighborhood and social roles); one woman told me it was the most repression she has seen since 2001 www.clarin.com/fotogalerias...

A new McCarthy era is upon us. Stupid, depressing, and dangerous as ever. I wonder whose name will carry the dunce cap in the history books. Too many are complicit. I’ll need to find upset and action, but for now I’m feeling grief at the dehumanization inherent to all this.
