The COVID-19 pandemic was mainly a health crisis, but it also caused big problems for people's jobs, money, and daily lives. People may have changed their plans during this time, like delaying having children. Migrants were hit harder by the pandemic compared to Swedish-born people.

Ukraine needs support from Europe now more than ever before. This is out way of maintaining that. Pass on the word!

At this point, it is obvious that it is not safe for scholars to travel the US. There are no easy solutions for conferences scheduled in the US this year but it should be cleary to everyone involved that they cannot just go ahead as planned.

So expect no European attending conferences in US

How populist leaders like Trump use ‘common sense’ as an ideological weapon to undermine facts When common sense is promoted as a virtue, it’s not just to celebrate how regular people understand the world. It promotes a worldview that rejects empirical facts and paves the way for propaganda.

Excellent new @us.theconversation.com piece by @dannagal.bsky.social (theconversation.com/how-populist...) led me to her new paper: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...: "Rejecting science, data, and evidence in favor of making sense of the world through intuition is the ultimate populist gesture"
