Claudia Bauer aka das reaktionäre Aushängeschild der österreichischen Bundesregierung streicht Fördermittel für Zara - und man fragt sich: wem will diese Koalition etwas beweisen? Frauenhassern? Gewalttätern? Der FPÖ? Es ist ein Trauerspiel.

Our collection Cryosphere is coming!

This collection conceptualizes the changing cryosphere as infrastructure that unfolds through non-built yet relational environmental formations. It foregrounds snow and ice as more-than-physical assemblages utilised and co-created by humans and non-human worlds.

Remembering is resistance. On International Day of Peasant Struggles, we honor land defenders killed for justice, connect past and present violence, and affirm memory as defiance against exploitation, dispossession, and ecological destruction. www.tni.org/en/article/c...

A photo of a tray with three sections empty. One has chopped carrot in it. The other has what can only be described as a posit of brown dog vomit and an insole liner of a sneaker (or a used panty liner from the mid 1700s). The kind of meal that would have you happily tossing yourself overboard.

NEW: Growing fears of food shortages on USS Tripoli & other US ships in the Middle East.

This photo is the kind of meals now being served. It was sent by a sailor to her family.

Families are now trying to send food parcels to the ships.

"For The Homeland is not 'The State' or even 'The Country.' The Homeland is not defined by simple geography."

The Oligarchs Pushing for Conquest in Greenland Trump’s fixation on filching the island territory from Denmark may seem like the demented ravings of a mad king. But to a cohort of plutocrat weirdos, it makes perfect sense.

Laleh Khalili’s Extractive Capitalism: A beautiful map of the entangled global economy The University of Exeter academic's book exposes how essential commodities, data and labour exploitation fuel wealth that is increasingly concentrated in the hands of an elite

Extractive Capitalism, @lalehkhalili.bsky.social argues, is the system by which commodities (oil, ore, bauxite, coal, sand) are excavated, transported, processed and sold at markups that funnel profits to a narrow investor class while externalising costs on to workers, communities & the environment.

Kontokündigung wegen Antifa: Banken vollstrecken US-Politik in Deutschland Innerhalb weniger Tage haben zwei Banken die Zusammenarbeit mit dem Verein Rote Hilfe e. V. beendet.

Die GLS-Bank und die Göttinger Sparkasse kündigen die Konten der #RotenHilfe. Es besteht die Gefahr der Zerschlagung einer linken Solidaritätsstruktur, deren Geschichte in die Weimarer Republik reicht. Die Kündigungen müssen sofort zurückgenommen werden.

AI is Destroying the University and Learning Itself Students use AI to write papers, professors use AI to grade them, degrees become meaningless, and tech companies make fortunes. Welcome to the death of higher education.

“The math is brutal and the juxtaposition stark: millions for OpenAI while pink slips go out to longtime lecturers. The CSU isn’t investing in education—it’s outsourcing it, paying premium prices for a chatbot many students were already using for free.“
