Vast scale of overseas human remains held in UK museums decried by MPs and experts Exclusive: Guardian study finds UK museums hold more than 260,000 items of remains, often in sacrilegious ways

Jemand hat diesen Artikel kommentiert, man wisse jetzt, warum UK so cursed sei & ich glaube, das ist ganz ernst gemeint gewesen & stimmt auch.

Vast scale of overseas human remains held in UK museums decried by MPs and experts Exclusive: Guardian study finds UK museums hold more than 260,000 items of remains, often in sacrilegious ways

'Lord Paul Boateng said the findings exposed UK museums and universities as “imperial charnel houses where the bones of Indigenous peoples torn from Britain’s empire in the past, with little or no regard...continue to be retained to this day in circumstances that beggar belief”.'

This FOl enquiry for the Guardian has taken up a great deal of my life for the past 2 years. (1/3)

The Stepdaughter by Caroline Blackwood Born into an aristocratic Anglo-Irish family, Lady Caroline Blackwood was, for many years, largely known as a socialite and muse. Her marriages to the artist Lucian Freud, the pianist Israel Citkow…

New on the blog today, I've written about THE STEPDAUGHTER by Caroline Blackwood.

A short, sharp shock of a novel where the reader bears witness to a stepmother’s unravelling and the impact of this nightmare on those who are under her care. #BookSky 💙📚

So etwas würde ich gerne über Deutschland lesen, aber auch so regt der Essay zum Nachdenken an. Auch darüber, wie unfähig unsere politischen Systeme sind, Zukunft zu denken, geschweige zu organisieren.

Excellent article, even before it gets to the chaser about climate change at the end.

Following the norms of international law is not an act of idealism but a general guidebook to avoiding vast national self-harm.

Genuinely fascinated by the thought process of so many Western leaders in supporting war against Iran and then being immediately upset about the obvious logical consequences of launching a war with Iran.

It means Mother Nature is queer and loves celebrating gay pride.

The South ending Reconstruction and plunging their populations into a backward looking culture and economy until it was forced to modernize by the Civil Rights movement is imo a very clean parallel.

Speaking as someone who used to work in an oncology research lab - no, ChatGPT is not helping find cancer. There are special, custom-built neural networks that can categorise biopsies (and someone at my former lab actually built one of those for a specific niche use!), which is *very* different.

Appell von Energieversorgern und Öko-Unternehmen Mehr als 1700 Unternehmen kritisieren Reiches Energiepolitik Innerhalb eines Tages haben Hunderte Firmen einen Appell gegen die Energiepolitik der Bundesregierung unterzeichnet. Besonders in der Kritik: die Reformen von Wirtschaftsministerin Katherina Reiche. 07.03.2026, 17.56 Uhr

Es wird höchste Zeit, dass sich die Unternehmen, die eben auch "die Wirtschaft" sind, mal deutlich zu Wort melden. Dass schwarz-rot in Wahrheit Politik für Gasverkäufer und zwei Netzkonzerne macht, wird allen anderen nämlich schaden. www.spiegel.de/wirts...

All the reactionary "left" guys think like this.

They lay these pipelines and actually, it just sends a bunch of people right down into the far right sewer.

Der Bundeskulturbeauftragte Herr Weimer hat ja auch so ein komplett sinnfreies KI-Projekt, nen Weimer-Chatbot, initiiert, Frau Baer nun diesen geschichtsklitternden Quatsch hier & wenn man weiß, wie viele CDSU Nepobabes gerade in KI-Startups unterwegs sind, kommt man hier schon ins Nachdenken.

the funny thing is how experts in money aren't like experts in an actual field of study. they're more like … podcasters who've managed to become popular among gamblers but aren't sure how
