#Klöckner und #Merz wissen, dass queere Menschen im NS verfolgt und vernichtet wurden. Wenn sie jetzt queeren Aktivismus als "Zirkus" bezeichnen & sich zugleich mit "Nie Wieder ist jetzt" schmücken, ist das maximal zynisch. Die Shoah-Erinnerung ist keine Legitimierungsmaschine für rechte Politiken.

🌍 Next week, Matt Watson (University of Sheffield, UK), the fourth speaker in the DEA's 2025 Ecological Anthropology Seminar Series, will be talking about 'Food Waste as the Fallout of Everyday Practices'. 🚮

🇳🇱 Hello Dutch-based Bluesky! 🇳🇱
I'm asking for help in my search for people who'd like to participate in our diary study on the use of water and leftover food. For our RESOURCE project, we're looking for households in the NL to keep a diary for 1 week / season, starting in the spring.
Please share! 🙏

🇳🇱 Hoi Bluesky Nederland! Ik vraag om je hulp bij het zoeken naar geïnteresseerde deelnemers voor een onderzoek naar het duurzame gebruik van water en voedsel 🚿🥖🍎 Voor het RESOURCE project zoeken we naar huishoudens in NL die vanaf de lente 1 week/seizoen een dagboek willen bijhouden.
Delen a.u.b.! 🙏

Home The RESOURCE project turns the usual logic of reasoning about the use of resources upside down. Instead of investigating the wasteful and destructive forms of consumer life, it aims at frugal practice...

@vewin.bsky.social, @voedsel-anders-nl.bsky.social, @caringfarmers.bsky.social, @nederlanddroogteland.nl, @athenainstitute.bsky.social I'd be grateful if you could repost our invitation and/or share some tips on networks where to circulate it 🙏

On dictators and clowns In February 2022, Vladimir Putin, with a penchant for absurdly long tables and known as a bare-chested horseman and bear tamer, deployed a massive army to invade Ukraine, headed by Volodymyr Zelensky...

Please note: the grotesque and absurd are not mere anecdotes and side effects of fascism but lie at the very heart of it
