Stellenbosch University Senate members call for the end to Israel's ‘brutal and barbaric’ destruction in Gaza dailymaverick.co.za/article/2024-0…

Liars.

Representation matters (ft Gal Gadot)

OK who messed with the calendars in the New York mayor's office?

Amsterdam looking glorious after yesterday’s storm…

I mean back when the Israelis were counting out minimum calories and quietly starving Palestinians in Gaza, they also randomly banned coriander.

Instituting this and being able to recognise the excellent often invisible work of colleagues is something I’m very proud of.

Congratulations to Chiara Brambilla, Liam Stanley and Beste İşleyen

Trying to fight the far right on its turf and outflank it has NEVER worked

It's been tried many times for decades now and all it has done is mainstream its ideas further and legitimised its presence

Mainstream elites are enablers of far right politics and they fully know it

This is like negative decolonisation

The community note!

As it’s currently blowing a gale and pissing it down in Amsterdam, things are looking up, weather wise, for seeing the whānau in Aotearoa in two weeks.

Another shining example of academic cowardice from a supposedly top rated architecture university in Europe. Leopold's response is a study on how to calmly respond with no fucks given.

OK… I’m done.

I reviewed an article a few years ago that argued Hamas manipulated the IOF into killing over 200 people and injuring over 9000 people during The Great March of Return to make Israel look bad.

And, well have the IOF you know thought about just not shooting people?

In case you don't know: Columbia University suspended students before a hearing or evidence of misconduct. The suspensions meant they had 24 hours to leave university housing, lost access to dining halls/food & to health care - never mind that they couldn't finish their classes.
