I believe that we need to keep talking about what German leaders (and media) have been doing over the past 20 months, and we have an obligation to hold them accountable. My piece mostly concerns the attacks against Iran and not the atrocities Israel is committing in Gaza, but ofc it’s all connected.

Can we stop talking about that stupid Tesla stunt please it’s none of anyone’s concern

We know exactly who threatens our safety btw. We know where the threats, the hate, the abuse come from. Spoiler: it’s not Die Linke, and it’s not Neukölln.

Es kursiert derzeit online auf Hebräisch ein eindeutiger Aufruf zur Gewalt gegen jüdische Berliner, die den Brief zur Unterstützung von Elif und der Linkspartei unterzeichnet haben; einige bekommen auch Hassnachrichten. Solche konkreten Drohungen erlebe ich in diesem Zusammenhang zum ersten Mal.

What if we kissed under the Schiphol parking lot rainbow

Die Oberpeinlichkeit on Display von einem Spiegelautoren der so hin und her geschwankt ist dass es ihm schwindelig sein muss ist eher der interessantere Symptom für eine ganz andere Diagnose: Meinungslosigkeit. Position ohne jegliche Untermauerung, die nach Belieben angepasst werden können—>

Why is there eduroam at Schiphol

Nothing good whatsoever

We are still neither angry nor loud enough about the fact that this terrible and dangerous racist is still at UGent. What’s going on over there?

I'm old enough to remember a time when The Atlantic at least pretended to do journalism

You cannot see the pull of AI separately from the massive influence that neoliberalism has had on our societies. AI would stand no chance if we would (still) value accuracy over efficiency.

Please keep your eyes on the northern West Bank this weekend

I respect France's commitment to not working on a holiday.

I’m just sad that when the WC ends the memes will stop too

Am I enjoying this one a bit too much? Oh yes I am

Too niche?

you can’t spell CONCERN without CERN.. really makes you think

some amazing things happening over on threads — ever since they “shut down CERN”

Over the past three years, Germany became a uniquely destructive force in the world. And now it’s government is acting surprised that the other states kept the receipts. That’s not just embarrassing, that’s utterly delusional.

Back when i was an adjunct, i used to say that academic publishing was a scam & a racket. Now that I'm tenure track (& in the age of "AI") my perspective has changed somewhat, in that it's a scam, a racket, *&* fundamentally undermining the very knowledge production it was meant to safeguard & enact

Germany failing to be elected to the UNSC might be the most delightful news of this whole wretched year

1066 all over again

The World Cup is about celebrating exotic host nation cultures

Yes Qatar Saint Germain sucks but at the end of the day the question is do we want English teams to win anything ever

I love when the staff looks at their lil iPads like look there we didn’t score because our players are not that good actually

Remember when that London team scored? That was fun but like a decade ago

In Gaza, all men of military age were deemed legitimate targets. “And military age is really open to interpretation,” said Jonathan. “It could be from 16 to 60 or even younger...Most of the people that my unit killed were not armed.”

Jetzt ihr: In welchen deutschen Medien habt ihr bisher Interviews mit den deutschen Bundesbürgern gesehen, die Teil der Flotille nach Gaza waren? Ich analysiere aktuell, wie internationale Medien diesen Vorgang covern und wie die Interviewführung verläuft. Gerne sharen und kommentieren.

Vielleicht möchte sich der deutsche Medienjournalismus und das werte Feuilleton dann doch mal mit antideutschen Abwanderungen von Tagesschau und taz zu Springer beschäftigen? Weshalb erscheinen diese Wechsel als Kernprozesse nicht-interessant und in ihrer Relevanz de-priorisiert?

So, @edzitron.com ate his Wheatties this morning

ten out of ten no notes

Teachers: "Please help us get AI out of schools, it's ruining education!" Students: "Please don't make us use AI, it's ruining our lives!" Politicians: "We hear you and we want to help you harness the power of AI." #NihilismAndTechnology

Is Amsterdam a cycling-first city because its public transport is so abysmal or is its public transport so abysmal because it’s a cycling-first city?
