Today would be Gad Beck's 102th birthday. He was born #OTD in 1923, as a second child of a mixed couple. His twin sister Miriam preceded him. He was one of the few queer voices from the Holocaust; undaunted and resource resistance fighter; and a story teller per excellence.

We’re seldom in Salem. What a treat to find actual Czech-style nakládaný hermelín in the menu. I prefer it a bit spicier. Could have used more time in the mix with additional bay leaves and allspice, but this was legit and good. Well done, Gulu Gulu!

Police was very restrained. And apart from a few lonely people carrying cardboard crosses and a dozen dudes in military gear holding a banner declaring „pedophilia“ there was almost no visible counter-protest. This was a joyful celebration after all „ #BudapestPride

Toronto has been on a hiring spree! Some context though: @uoft.bsky.social has long attracted int’l talent. I’m lucky to be on faculty at a world-class university in a diverse global city.

Bistdudeppert, die Menschenmenge hier bei der Budapest Pride ist so gewaltig, dass sich kaum was bewegt, obwohl es vor einer halben Stunde offiziell losgegangen und ein Durchkommen unmöglich ist. Orban lernt gerade, was der Streisand Effect ist. Die Mehrheit ist bunt, auch in Budapest 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
