Strongly reminds me of this funny statement at the bottom of Abhijit Banerjee's website I saw recently...

The situation is not too dissimilar in northern Germany, either.

That also took me a minute to figure out. You need to switch to the "Visual" editor at the top left corner (rather than the "Source" one), preferably add a bibliography (file) in your YAML and then in the visual editor you can trigger a search menu for reference by simply writing "@" (or "[@").

3 out of 4 youth in #Bangladesh have faced negative impacts of #climatechange already. And that was before the recent heat wave where the government closed all schools for two weeks!

Today my colleague Zahirul (from ARCED) started our enumerator training in Dhaka. Over the coming weeks, they will collect data on recipients of a social pension to estimate impacts of the pension in this project with @sfehrler.bsky.social, @atonurabbani.bsky.social, and @violaasri.bsky.social.

Apparently Avaaz is already waiting in the wings for you to publicise specific topics in your blog... 😉

Glad to see so many people at the anti- right wing protest in my home town, Kassel.

We got this spam email for a lottery. I just could not get passed this: We got "drawn for a lottery" by the UNFCCC (meaning COP), which they translated to "Framework agreement of the United Nations for Nations". Made my morning.

Just coming back from the massive anti-AfD and anti-fascist demonstration in Bremen. Biggest square on the market place, hardly any space to even get ok the square.
