Jaha. Har ni sett den här dårskapen från Parisa Liljestrand då?

Hon frågar alltså ChatGPT om hur det står till med kvinnovården på Skånes Universitetssjukhus i Malmö.

On that note, I’d very happily make them a list of decent human English language copy editors who can deal with academic prose. Please give me all of your recommendations (and please recommend yourself if you fit the bill)!

Born in Sweden, baby Emanuel to be deported to Iran - Radio Sweden After a ruling by the Migration Agency, eight month old baby Emanuel, who was born in Sweden, is facing a deportation order to his family's homeland of ...

Sweden deports eight month old baby to Iran without his parents, national public radio reports. The ruling is a consequence of the harsh immigration laws initiated by the success of the nazi-originated party that is now crucial to the government’s mandate, but most parties are behind these laws.

A photo taken at a bookshop: a kid too young to read Heated Rivalry, but into all things sport holds a copy in their hands (it’s got two ice hockey players on the cover after all). The design is very simple - flat, even.

For comparison: Heated Rivalry on another shelf in another country. A person more knowledgeable than me has just informed me this is “flat character design”, and yes, totally.

A photo of a bookshelf at a bookshop at Copenhagen Airport. Nick Hornby’s High Fidelity and About A Boy have colourful possibly AI-generated minimalistic drawings on their covers - much like Heated Rivalry’s.

I see Nick Hornby’s books have been given the Heated Rivalry treatment by his Danish publisher.

There is a spectre haunting Malmö university, the spectre of Gramsci (the door opened silently in the middle of my lecture on cultural and gender hegemony, but no one was there).

A few weeks ago, I was teaching a class on the consequences of war during the 20th century; today I’m wondering whether SpongeBob SquarePants would have existed had the First World War not happened.

They‘re the Smartphone Generation. Not digital natives. They grew up with closed operating systems that don‘t require or even allow much customization beyond cosmetics, with cloud data and streaming.

When will this crisis get any attention whatsoever!? A THOUSAND ACADEMIC STAFF AT ONE INSTITUTION SERVED REDUNDANCY RISK NOTICES! And that's not counting what's surely being visited on professional services staff too. This is an economic catastrophe, to say nothing of the intellectual catastrophe!

Dagens/årets/världens måste-läsning: "I flera månader sprang mina kompisar och jag sicksack när vi skulle korsa gator i hemstaden. Till slut gav vi upp, trötta och halvgalna av den ständiga faran. Vi brukade ställa oss på synliga platser i en sekund eller två, för att utmana ödet och prickskytten."

Som jourhavande Margaret Thatcher-expert (?!) fick jag i våras vara med i podden Historien om - om just Thatcher - för att prata om varför hon blev som hon blev, och hur hennes politik påverkade vanliga britter (en del av mina kritiska perspektiv kom med iallafall). www.podplay.com/sv-se/podcas...

Since Trump took office, the US has killed 70 people in its campaign to allegedly defend the border from narcotics trafficking in the Caribbean. Over 28 years, the Berlin Wall caused 140 deaths taking into account not just the shootings but also the accidents, drownings and borders guard deaths.

Det måste vara möjligt att ha flera tankar samtidigt: att ”en stor, och växande, majoritet av tonårspojkar inte begår våldsbrott över huvud taget medan en liten, och minskande, grupp av tonårspojkar har kommit att svara för en allt större andel av det samlade ungdomsvåldet” (Sivertsson, 2022).

Friskoleelever halkar efter på arbetsmarknaden Skolverkets studie visar att friskoleelever har lägre etableringsgrad på arbetsmarknaden än kommunalelever

”Vi kan inte säga säkert varför det är så”, säger Skolverkets utredare om att elever på friskolornas yrkesprogram har klart sämre etablering på arbetsmarknaden.
Jag har ägnat en stor del av min tid de senaste två åren åt just den frågan. Detta har jag hittat. 🧵

Lästips! (Jag har ännu inte kommit över besvikelsen av att se hetsiga pappor och tränare skola in fotbollsskolekids i en toxic sport-maskulinitet - men har som tur är hittat en annan, barnvänligare klubb åt min fotbollsgalning, där fokus ligger på att utvecklas och ha roligt tillsammans.)
