Happy birthday to me❣️
Noooooo 😭😭😭😭
In our corpus of Italian as well, swearing doesn't do aggression but a lot of other stuff (cf. our publications @calvirgi.bsky.social 😅)
Absolutely crucial article about the deep connections between computer-vision research, normalization of surveillance, and expansion of state power. Take a look!
I love your squares! Thank you for joining in the relay strike 🟥 and craftivism 😍

French researchers arrested for anti-Trump opinions on social media when entering the U.S., Germans held at passport checks as well.
Where are we going?
At this point, it is obvious that it is not safe for scholars to travel the US. There are no easy solutions for conferences scheduled in the US this year but it should be cleary to everyone involved that they cannot just go ahead as planned.
Poeple still liking this comment means that we still have to fight for education and research in the Netherlands.
We are striking for our rights and against the government's cuts on education and research.

When you all (English speaking people) complain about numbers in #Germanic #languages, feel lucky that #English didn't retain this construction.
Jane #Austen 's Persuasion at p.5 (like Gaskell's North and South, the first coming out of my memory of past English lit studies) uses this construction
I am at a panel event about discrimination against women talking about how childcare costs are driving women out of work and more general work and women. Audience seems to be formed mostly by women. We are going nowhere to change what's wrong, discriminatory and bad for all society. 😡😥
Sì lo so, ma *di solito* si fa dopo lamorte di personaggi illustri. E qui cadono due prerequisiti ;)
Addison McDowell sta praticamente auspicando la m*rte a Trump 🥲

Yes! That's why I pinned it! So tgat I remember 😀
I wish you could pin more than one post, though 😕
This article smells like Joe Walther's Hyperpersonal model.
Based on @davidwesterman.bsky.social 2022 article, this is not only possible but there is good theoretical support to understand AI as Social Actors

The 75th Annual Conference of the International Communication Association (#ICA25), set for 12-16 June in Denver Colorado, USA, is shaping up to be ICA’s largest conference yet, tracking with Toronto and Paris in terms of preregistration numbers. At the same time, we are closely monitoring the evolving situation in the United States which has raised concerns for some members of the ICA community intending to participate. We recognize your concerns regarding the uncertain environment and appreciate your feedback and perspectives. We affirm ICA’s dedication to a global exchange of knowledge and perspectives and protecting the free exchange of ideas among our members and attendees. Current rhetoric and actions in some US communities run counter to ICA’s commitment to ensuring the full and equal participation of all members of our global academic community and conflict directly with ICA's IDEA principles.
Our immediate plan includes the following interventions, which aim to preserve your right as scholars to freely present your work and collaborate with your peers: As always, we have made standard invitation letters for visa purposes available via the submission website: you can find your letter attached to your profile in ScholarOne (the submission system). As of 19 February, we have done a new run of all letters without the title of the paper(s) mentioned; papers are identified by submission ID number so that your research topics are not mentioned. You may find these new letters in your profile as well.
The fact that this communication is now necessary ... for conferences happening in the *US* ... shocking.

The most horrifying slide from today’s National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) organization grant webinar, imo
Siamo ormai agli ultimi posti per diritti LGBT, peggio di Ungheria e Russia. Libertà e diritti soffocati da leggi oppressive e intolleranza.
Sono bastati 2 anni a toccare il fondo, ma ciò che più mi spaventa è il silenzio che aleggia su questo scempio.

Could one of the States adopt the pride flag as it’s State flag? That way we could simply say we we’re flying a State flag!

Some federal employees who accepted Trump’s buyout offer are now being notified that their buyout has been denied, and they are being terminated instead.
Anyone else concerned about Trump quoting a dictator? This comes right after he fired 20 immigration judges without explanation.
"Mio amore! Mio amore! Disprezzo macchiato macchiato mio amore!"
This is what I hear as an Italian. And rightly so! And feel <contempt>.
Espresso is a train in Italian, what foreigners call espresso is just "caffè".
