Arh, et gæt, der havde inkluderet Skjelmose havde nok været bedre ;)

“Jeg synes ikke, det er for meget at kræve, at bøger skal være skrevet af mennesker, oversat af mennesker og anmeldt af mennesker, hvis de skal læses af mennesker. Det er faktisk det absolutte minimum.” Amen! @atlasmagasin.bsky.social atlasmag.dk/kultur/b%C3%...

Israel Passes Law to Hang Palestinians Convicted of Deadly Attacks

Og med afstand verdens mest vindende kontirytter. Synes stadig det er helt uforståeligt, han ikke kunne finde en pro-kontrakt i år.

The fact that fewer and fewer people are willing and/or able to read say 1000 words at once seems as dangerous to liberal democracy as anything else that might be happening but that is where we are

Også for ikke-italiensrejsende danskere. Fantastisk bog!

Point of no returns: researchers are crossing a threshold in the fight for funding With so little money to go round, the costs of competing for grants can exceed what the grants are worth. When that happens, nobody wins.

This report in Nature on the costs of competing for & administering scientific grants is shocking: "In other words, European taxpayers will have spent more on the funding process than on the funding itself, and the scientific ecosystem has been drained." www.nature.com/articles/d41... 🧪

Anyhoo, here's a paper about "the centrality of housing concerns in facilitating the Holocaust and the complicity of individuals in the exclusion of Jews for economic, ideological, and geographic reasons."

Jeg har ikke set interviewet, men helt generelt synes jeg det er mere troværdigt, at trænere ikke dækker sig ind under en sejr, når præstationen halter. Det gjorde den igår, så på den konto er jeg glad for at Zorniger ikke gik med vi-vandt-så-alt-er-godt-vinklen.

That being said, I certainly recognize the "weird vibe" that others write about. It's definitely more a place for disseminating your work and/or achievements than for scholarly debate. Although there are exceptions.

+ To my mind it doesn't hurt that you can also reach people on the research administrative, foundation, museum, media, and civil society side of things.

I think it might depend on the national context. In Danish academia it is very used (and much more so than bsky) and therefore also useful for engaging other scholars, be it in history or the humanities more broadly. It's for example proven a pretty good place for disseminating cfp's etc.

Academics in the US are increasingly under threat. Mark Bray is a great scholar who has made substantial contributions to the critical study of antifascism and fascism. Threats and intimidation cannot be accepted as the new normal.

Thinking of my former Hungarian language teacher today who was greatly upset when Dylan won the Nobel prize - not because a singer had won the prize but because Krasznahorkai hadn't.

Me and a bunch of brilliant colleagues got an op-ed responding to the recent political attacks on Roskilde University in the Danish newspaper Politiken today.

There are no words left for what the Israeli government and IDF are doing to Gazans.

And yet we must still keep finding the words to say it loudly: they are actively committing genocide and the our governments are letting them.

Hvem kan dog stiltiende se til at flere og flere børn dø af sult i Gaza ? Menneskeskabt grusomhed udfoldes for vores åbne øjne. Grænserne må STRAKS åbnes for uhindret nødhjælp.
