Like editing my bio? I will do it on the app and on the browser version, let me know if there's anything else I can do as well.

If it helps, I don't even think the profile is visible on bsky.

"Columbia, facing the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars in government grants and contracts over what the Trump administration said was a systemic failure to protect students and faculty members “from antisemitic violence and harassment,” opted to yield to several of the administration’s most substantial demands."

Es wäre vernünftig, sich langsam darüber zu unterhalten, warum und wie Rechtsaußen der Vorwurf des Antisemitismus benutzt und funktionalisiert.

Thoughtful piece on the perils of academics going along with dictators. “Our teaching and research only matter under general conditions of freedom and dignity. These conditions do not exist under the threat of arbitrary arrest, imprisonment, deportation, or suspension of medical care.” archive.ph/2025.03.20-211201/c…

Wow! Thanks for sharing this. It really articulates what's been in my heart as my institution, which used to boast about being the most diverse university in the Southeast, dumped the language of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice. At first, we were allowed to talk about students' "sense of belonging" on campus. Now they're telling us even that is too much and all we're allowed to say is "we are a global community". Without explaining what that means.

AMERIKKKA : DES NOUVELLES DU TRUMPISME

Notre période est décidément hantée par des ombres mortifères, et nous assistons en direct à la fascisation accélérée de la première puissance mondiale depuis le retour de Donald Trump au pouvoir.

Trois nouveaux épisodes alarmants ces derniers jours : contre-attaque.net/2025/03/22/…

Comme par hasard, a côté de la cartrone 'ricaine, la cartrone Israelienne!

MAGA devient MIGA sans s'en cacher. Combien des Americains acceptent vraiment ca?

Récemment, Trump a annoncé vouloir annexer l'Alaska, état des États-Unis depuis longtemps... S'il était allé à l'école, il le saurait.

We went to the Herperduin again, so of course Arwen had some splashes and water fun with her ball.

‘Het werkelijke probleem in Castricum is dat er veel te weinig sociale huurwoningen zijn gebouwd’, aldus Brouwer. ‘Dat is een landelijk probleem, en dat los je niet op door statushouders een huis te ontzeggen. ‘Het is een gotspe dat ze dit in Den Haag als voorbeeld beschouwen’, vindt hij. ‘Bovendien is de wachttijd voor een woning in Castricum niet afgenomen sinds de voorrangsregel is afgeschaft.’

Slettenhaar is een schande voor Nederland. Maar dat wisten we al. Gelukkig is hij volgendjaar weg, hij zal wel weer ergens anders opduiken in het rechtse spectrum.

Beste Mona, Misschien kunnen oude mensen die alleen wonen hier ook wel aan wennen, ze gaan toch zo dood.
