Well said Anna, and not that long ago at all. Still in some circles this research is seen as just not central, so can be easily disposed of, if necessary. It’s a constant push.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

Trump is unleashing sadism upon the world. But we cannot get overwhelmed | Judith Butler Those who celebrate his defiance and sadism are as claimed by his logic as those who are paralyzed with outrage

It’s easy to meet his disgusting form of sadism with hatred. I often feel that way. But if that’s all we have, then we are trapped inside his sick logics. We are bigger than that. Dig deep into the best your imaginations.

Do that in whatever way works for you: think of the past, think of the future, make art, sing songs, cook, hang out with good friends, love, write, contact your reps and tell them what you want, march in protest. That is resistance, that is real freedom. It matters. Don’t give up, don’t give in.

CPS has put out a lot of info to their staff about what to do and yes, they will deny entry. If there is a judicial warrant signed and everything, they are to call their legal folks and tell them to wait.

Brake up with Fake News

Danish national lexicon will no longer advertise on social media. This decision follows Meta's decision to deprioritise fact-checking.

Going forward, Lex.dk will spend its advertising budget on independent, national media that are committed to democracy.
