My school @ucdpolitics.bsky.social has 2 positions (deadline Feb 21) one in Global Governance, one in Environmental Politics. They're called "Ad Astra Fellows" but between you & me they're basically tenure-track posts. It's a good deal. You get a PhD line & annual €5000 research budget for 5 years.

buffer zones are in the news. while Vance & co‘s critiques are anti abortion & scaremonger about “thought crimes”… can we still think critically about buffer zones & carcerality, from a reproductive justice perspective? @luberropizzarossa.bsky.social & I think so: ohrh.law.ox.ac.uk/buffer-zones...

Advice from a postdoc who worked through the Bolsonaro years...good advice to anyone feeling a bit distracted at the moment. "The best “fuck you” to fascists? Thriving. Publish that paper. Build that collaboration. Laugh with labmates. Science outlives dictators—but only if we stay in the fight"

Rethinking democratic innovations in response to rising extremism should be the guiding principle. This isn't about abstract ideals but about democracy in action—real, lived democracies shaped by conflict and power struggles.

If you ever wondered why buoyant microplastics have been found in the deep-sea sediment with high concentrations, our newest paper might give you some ideas. The multiple aggregationes with marine snow takes the buoyant microplastics (can be some other particles) to deep sea sediments.

Great to meet with Argentinian activists at today’s antifascist demo. Our struggles for LGBT+ rights, women’s rights, disabled rights, migrant rights and against racism and fascism are one struggle around our world.

Allow me to assure you that whatever genius idea you have to help people access abortion, it: 1. Is already being done 2. Has already been tried and failed 3. Is a bad idea for reasons obvious to people who have more information than you do. If you want to help, great. Find people to learn from!

As someone who studied the suffrage movement/ 1st wave feminism, an appeal to natural law was one of the key frames used to argue that women shouldn't be allowed to participate in politics. How are we having to listen to this same framing against equality over a century later?
