Really everything you need to know about Reichinnek's pretense of antifascism: "A big sticking point with a fair few would-be Die Linke voters is that the party is against the further delivery of weapons to Ukraine." иди нахуй

Wobei ich doch sagen möchte, das nicht-Loben ist eine Eigenschaft der deutschen akademischen Landschaft. Meilen anders in UK/Nordamerika/Israel. arbeitinderwissenschaft.substack.com/p/lob-des-lo...

"No Other Land" is still available on Channel 4 VoD. Watch it if you haven't. The stories it tells, of oppression and injustice, are heavy and painful. But it does so with unique lightness and tenderness. Poetic ray of light in great darkness

I went for dinner with a colleague to Ognisko; their kopytka with penny bun & chestnut sauce was 90% button mushroom, only a bit of good mushroom & châtaigne. I was a bit disappointed & related so much to the waitress. Yes, she too prefers to the good forest mushrooms in the sauce, she responded.

The Bird King is a perfect book. lareviewofbooks.org/article/magi...

For starters, Wikipedia didn’t profit from stealing my work to have its articles written (rather than opposite, it cited) and then say that each source is meaningless and just a pixel, from its perspective

More sad news that I learn belatedly. www.juedische-allgemeine.de/kultur/der-s...

I am so tired of trying, and largely failing to explain folks that NATO membership or strong security guarantees for Ukraine are essential to restrain not just Moscow but also Kyiv. Either that, or it will be Israel in steroids in the middle of Europe, and I don't think most Europeans would like it

Today is #lesbiandayofvisibility and I want to mark it with my very first piece about a lesbian survivor, Lore Behar from Stuttgart @lesbischel.bsky.social lesbenwelt.hypotheses.org/2729
