Travel tip: KLM, never again!

Direct flight (Rio-Amsterdam) cancelled and now I'm stuck in Madrid with little clue on what happened with my luggage 🤡

Migrants, Mosquitos, and Malaria: Histories of Constructing Enemy Threats Trump’s immigration policies echo WWII-era propaganda linking disease and race, weaponizing public health fears to justify deportations and dehumanization.

Amazingly proud of our daughter Marion who has published this article with @nichecanada.bsky.social! A new generation Jørgensen academics has begun! @dollyjorgensen.bsky.social

Not a huge fan of Amsterdam but the possibility of building a community here is undeniable.

Short participation in a forró evening at Nieuwland, a political/cultural collective in the city.

In the video, my own version of "Vapor di imigrason", by Mayra Andrade

Nada contra cientistas (tenho até amigos que são), mas gostaria de ver a imprensa entrevistando mais urbanistas com propostas concretas de adaptação das cidades à crise climática porque isso dá um norte às pessoas sobre o que cobrar dos políticos, em vez de ficarmos apenas "oh, vamos todos morrer!".

My ex student (German boy who became a good friend of mine) referring to the (Brazilian) girl he's seeing as "boyzinha" (slang from Paraíba, Pernambuco and other NE Brazilian states).

Sometimes supervising is kinda priceless! 🫰🏾

The truth is I never felt this vulnerable in my life.

The rise of the far right is not an abstract subject. I will be unemployed fairly soon, then my visa expires. I'm unwelcome here and (professionally) useless in Brazil.

I try not to succumb in despair, but I've been failing...

That is, bringing the reservoirs to the conversation in a moment of crisis seems not to be ideal. Putting sloth (an endangered animal), not the biting midges, in evidence might be irresponsible to say the least...

I really hope Brazilian health authorities do not adopt the name "sloth fever" to refer to #OropoucheFever.

Hope the slaughtering of monkeys during the recent yellow fever crisis has taught us that the distinction between vector and reservoir needs to be done cautiously.
