Newspaper lacks worthy topics amidst the instauration of fascism all over the world

Et no comment sur le choix de l'image qui accompagne l'entretien à @liberation.fr avec l'historien autoproclamé du féminicide, qui déverse sur les RS du corps féminin ouvert et sexualisé. Mais comme c'est de la cire du 18e, ca ne pose pas de problème, hein. On voit que le débat avance bien.

Mais oui, toutes ces rabates-joies (à lire au féminin), qui se contentent de condamner platement les féminicides. Alors que nous, on voulait juste s'amuser un peu avec un style enlevé et une histoire un peu ludique ! 🤮 #supprime @lemonde.fr www.lemonde.fr/article-offe...

It has been amazing to discover the municipal museum of Lagos (Portugal), and more specificall, their museum of slavery. They were pioneer in discussing it at a national level, and still their musseography is compelling

Plus envie d'argumenter, plus envie de documenter. Tout est là, sous nos yeux. Mais comment faire prendre conscience de ce qu'est une famine?

This one's for the taxidermy curious. We are legion, yeah? In "Coyotes, Cougars, Californians," I trace evolving display practices @nhm.org. It's a story about how one museum revises boundaries of belonging, featuring the late great P-22. @animalhistory.bsky.social #envhist doi.org/10.1525/ah.2...

"One of the reasons the epidemic of violence against women is so unacknowledged is because cases like these are talked about individually, and often treated as though they are shocking aberrations rather than part of a pervasive pattern that operates at all levels of society."

#ESR L'existence même d'Academia est une arnaque (le nom de domaine en .edu); son succès un gros problème Il fallait, il faut fuir Academia, hier comme aujourd'hui 🤷 & privilégier des archives publiques, pérennes

What a great roundtable! @collecol.bsky.social!

Message de l’équipe du "wiki audition histoire" concernant les tentatives de pression par les RH du ministère et de certaines universités dans toutes les disciplines #transparence #recrutement #VeilleESR

Alors plutôt qu'une énième discussion foireuse sur l'HDR, supprimons là: une proposition, mais pas la seule, du Réseau académique pour l'égalité de genre ou RAGE, parce qu'à un moment ça suffit ! rage.ouvaton.org/2025/05/26/p...

If you work in women's health, or you're a woman, or you're a doctor to women, please read the new World Economic Forum report, Prescription for Change, which lays out the problem of women's exclusion from research. Impressive suggestions. So much work to do! www.weforum.org/publications...

Des inquiétudes pour le wiki, mais on rappelle qu'on est dans notre bon droit en publiant, ne cédons pas aux pressions.

Les prépas privées, ça coûte très cher et ça ne sert à rien. Les explications dans cette vidéo : youtu.be/fVC8xh9GtZ0

[ #VeilleESR #Parcoursup ] Première année de médecine : des prépas privées chères et peu efficaces, selon une étude AAEMS. par Géraldine Dreyer pour @france3alsace.bsky.social Halala ! Si seulement on venait de faire une grande réforme des études de santé, on aurait pu aborder ce problème...

Les prépas privées, sont-elles efficaces ? L’Association Amicales des Étudiants en Médecine de Strasbourg (AAEMS) s’est penchée sur le sujet. Résultat : elles ne sont pas essentielles. En revanche, elles sont onéreuses et vectrices d’inégalités.

À Bordeaux, les étudiants en pharmacie fâchés contre le lobbying des prépas privés 🔗https://l.sudouest.fr/m2U

Mais "le recours massif aux prépas privées n’améliore pas significativement les résultats académiques des étudiants en santé". Occasion de saluer ici la mobilisation des étudiantes et étudiants du tutorat qui, à Angers comme à Strasbourg, font un super travail de suivi @univangers.bsky.social

Enfin une enquête qui pose les limites (au mieux)que l'on constate au quotidien de "l'apport" des prépas.

Today we have "“B is for Baby” / B is for Bitumen" by Elysia French This post introduces French's recent article in the Mobilizing Museum Minerals issue of Museum & Society edited by @ellietheelement.bsky.social & @camillemarys.bsky.social niche-canada.org/2025/05/16/b... #envhist #oil #museums

Des ATER de l'Université Sorbonne Nouvelle se mobilisent actuellement, avec le soutien du collectif @doctorantcgtsup.bsky.social, pour obtenir la revalorisation des salaires et de meilleures conditions de travail.

📚New Book Series in #envhist edited by Stephen Brain & Viktor Pal (@viktorpal.bsky.social) is up and running! Get in touch with the editors and share your book proposal. More info 👇

Policy Exchange has published a very Policy Exchange-ish guide to museums and restitution. Unsurprisingly, it concludes that 'The Benin Bronzes have the greatest educational benefit in the British Museum, where they are contextualised by a universal collection.' (p. 53) So many begged questions.

Today we celebrate the incredible biodiversity of our planet – and the power of #OpenAccess to protect it. The Biodiversity Heritage Library makes over 62 million pages of biodiversity knowledge freely available to all. 🔗 biodiversitylibrary.org #EarthDay #EarthDay2025 #Biodiversity #BHLib

Hands up everyone who works on the #history, #aesthetics & #geography of #logistics & #energy ! What is your take / project?

'Today, Britain is the most incarcerated country in western Europe. Incredibly, 31 of the jails still in operation in England and Wales were built by the Victorians. They house about 22,000 prisoners, a quarter of the prison population.' As Victorian historians know, they were problematic then too.

Our own @arnoldke.bsky.social will host a workshop at this event on how to work with + read natural history specimens with colleagues at the Liverpool World Museum! 🪲 Information on schedule, bursaries, & sign-up available in the link below ⬇️🌿

#Nursinghistory Are there any #Histmed who have data on tuition and fee costs for nursing students in the U.S. around 1900? Specifically, how much did they pay, and what was the expected number of work hours for nursing students around that time?

French historians - is anyone/anyone you know working at the AD Ille et Vilaine now or soon? Or have you worked there or know anyone who has? I have a question that someone might be able to save me a lot of time with. [I know I can email the archivists - for various reasons I'm trying here first]

encore un délire du CNU: un dossier de qualification a été jugé non recevable car le rapport de soutenance de thèse contenait des paragraphes en anglais (i.e. non traduits). Les mêmes qui se permettent de porter un jugement sur l'internationalisation des collègues (promo par ex)

The big Berks cancelled. Hiring freeze in many unis in the UK, US. Humanities prms cut. Drastic research budget cuts in France. I'm sure we could add more countries. Research in general, and in the humanities and social sc in particular, is under attack. What's going to be left after the rampage?

🟥 National Strike Schedule Announced 🟥 The dates for nationwide strikes against budget cuts in Dutch #highereducation have been confirmed: * 10 March: Leiden * 11 March: Utrecht * 13 March: Radboud University (with HAN and ArtEZ) * 17 March: Amsterdam […] [Original post on akademienl.social]

'The university was not "firing and rehiring", but creating new roles focused on teaching and student contact, without the expectations of research and innovation that come with traditional academic lecturer roles, he [university spokesman] added...."We have never posted a deficit of £100m."'

Puisqu'il semble que personne n'est au courant on va tirer les choses au clair quant au réseau dégueulasse qui se cache derrière @infolibertaire.net
