The fact that I know more about Katy Perry and Lauren Sánchez’s 11-minute space trip than I do about Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito’s decades-long crime spree shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

There is only one way to end the war: put pressure on the Russians. The Trump people did the opposite: put pressure on Ukraine, and relieved pressure on Russia. They have made the war worse while talking of "peace."

It is really heartwarming to see, that across social media there are so many positive comments on my new video about Trump's attacks on Ukraine. With a little luck we will reach 1500 views today. Thank you to everyone watching! ♥️ youtu.be/dUed8hy5gaE

aside: a stunning comment from David Baker, UW professor who won the Nobel Prize in 2024. Now 15 lab members are looking for positions overseas. “There’s so many amazing people who want to come in, & we can’t take them. The Nobel Prize was just a little blip. But things have gotten quite bleak.”

Today Marilin Rehnfeldt passed. A brilliant Paraguayan Anthropologist she exemplified generosity and was a great supporter of all academic efforts on Paraguayan history and anthropology. She was a big supporter of my own research and will be terribly missed. QDEP
