I have never seen the American Dream explained in such a succinct way.

Don’t miss what is sure to be an exciting conference on the critical issue of the transnational far right!

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.

James Bond: you think I haven’t faced death before? Supervillain: oh, I don’t expect you to die, Mr. Bond. I expect you to suffer. *opens travel funding reimbursement software I think you will find your motorboat rental and casino reservations especially complex James Bond: no. no. pls kill me

Thank you all for coming to our panel @cadaad2026.bsky.social 'unravelling the dichotomies between top down and bottom up approaches to migration'.It was a full room with lots of engagement! Two outputs will be following, so watch this space @francozappettini.bsky.social @samtbennett.bsky.social

Thank you for being tolerant / patient / understanding. You know who you are. ❤️

Stay humble.

The Arsenal. Your Premier League champions.

Never in doubt ❤️ ❤️

There’s bottle… And there’s bottle. Vamos ❤️

Workers from Amazon, Whole Foods & Washington Post held the “Ball without Billionaires” to boycott the Jeff Bezos Met Gala. The show was walked by organizers who’ve fought for better working conditions, fair pay & rights for pregnant workers. All looks were designed by immigrant designers.

It is impossible to stop thinking about Arsenal. It’s relentless. I’m 60 ffs. This feels like the longest season ever at a point where everything else in life is accelerating, Xmas comes quicker, the kids are racing through school, but the 25-26 season is defying the laws of physics.

You should read @alicefraser.bsky.social's lovely and sorrowful and human piece on Bondi Beach & then reflect that it's the sort of communication that's only possible when you don't view everything as an online argument that you have to win at all costs. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

How likely is ‘likely’? Does ‘likely’ have a higher probability than ‘probable’? I put together a quick quiz so you can see how you interpret probability phrases, then see how you compare with others: probability.kucharski.io
