Cover of the book The Word made Flesh: Lutheran Bodies, 1600-1720 by Karin Sennefelt. The over image shows an etching of a young woman in a dress but bare foot flying through the air during a lightning storm.

The Word made Flesh is out today! I've not seen it in the flesh myself yet, but this is a happy day after many years of work.

✂️ Kürzungen an Hochschulen gehen auf Kosten der Beschäftigten, der Studierenden, der Wissenschaft — & unserer Demokratie. Den Preis dafür zahlt unsere Gesellschaft als Ganzes. Das ist heute sehr deutlich geworden in der Sendung.

The big bratwurst brawl: why is this simple sausage so sizzlingly controversial? The rivalry between the regions who claim to have invented it is more heated than ever – and should it be 8cm or 31cm long?

I recommend you read the Guardian’s latest Pass Notes on the same - I had a good chuckle: www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

This is a must-read for anyone interested in medieval demographic connections between Europe/Britain and Africa. Another piece in the giant jigsaw of human migration history!

Very interesting research! We are all from somewhere else :). Just reiterates how history of humanity = history of movement: coming, hanging around, moving on, coming back, etc, etc. over and over, and all the cultural connections and disconnections that are avoided, made and unmade in the process.

How to Read an "AI" Press Release — Sonja Drimmer Every so often someone like Mark Zuckerberg or Sam Altman will dribble out some unadorned text in Times New Roman font, announcing with stentorian certitude the advent of a new world that their latest...

Zuckerberg farted out some nonsense today, and since most media outlets refuse to report critically any time a tech CEO offers them some a pseudoserious press release, I've decided to do it for them.
