Global Sumud Flotilla Statement saying the Italian naval mission sent to shadow them is trying to disrupt their efforts through providing opportunities for rescue

What's that the Italian navy shadowing the #GlobalSumudFlotilla is not about protection but is about using rescue as interception?

It's the logic of Mare Nostrum all over again and I wish some people weren't so naïve to think militarism had anything to offer a politics of solidarity and justice.

Deutsche Liberale, die zu Masha Gessen, Ghassan Hage oder Nancy Fraser kein Wort verloren haben, drehen jetzt frei wegen Jimmy Kimmel. Leben wir eig im selben Deutschland?

Truly grateful to the editors sharing this experience. Great piece and such an admirable level of integrity and courage anywhere but specifically in the German context.

Academics are under unrelenting pressure to accept the narrative of the inevitability of #generativeAI & to embrace it in teaching & learning. We resist - because it is ecologically destructive, ethically corrupt, & because it undermines the thinking abilities that make us both human & intelligent.

Heya. I got a bit bored by people asking me how to navigate away from the cycles of exhaustion and exploitation that the academia seems exceptionally well inclined to produce. So I decided to run a workshop on it. An antiwork-antishop, in effect. Sign up below.
