I love this one. But I loved the old ones even better....https://youtu.be/FQ9Xpzi4qkU?si=nWKbd6fGGNKfSSyb

I'm so excited to read this!!! Felicidades!

To me, it is becoming increasingly insensitive to make the life-under-fascism is boring argument -- even as it may be generally true -- when immigrants in the US have been afraid to leave the house for months. We need to find new and better ways of publicly communicating what fascism feels like.

I understand your statement. I am a scholar of gender and democratization & I know and teach the theory. In many ways, I do not disagree. But my point is we need to recognize that these theories and explanations are from the perspective of the privileged. The frogs were never bored.

Oh yes, they know. That's even (part of) the point.

This is so not surprising. A ministry civil servant once handed Argentina's 2005 election results on a floppy disk... In 2009. The IT team at UC San Diego had to resuscitate a computer from the scrap heap to read it. Then it turned out the spreadsheet file was a QuickBooks format from the 1990s...

Which I know is not a substantive response but.... Urrggghhh.

Urgh!!!!!

18 of mine...

And so the political scientists continue, screaming fruitlessly into the void of actual politicians' behaviour...

Oooh!! I used to teach an Ethics and Politics class and used both cases to talk about dissent, institutional culture & whistleblowing. I studied astronomy as an undergrad & my father worked on the Apollo missions. I would always get emotional teaching Columbia.... But such important care studies.

No, really, how do I get one of these in Canada? I will pay!

We aren't APSR, but zero in my timeb associate editing PGI and lead editing at EJPG. Even short commentaries that are not peer reviewed, and that we invite, get a minor revisions the first time.

They certainly ensured I paid the 2.99 GBP I owed them on my self-assessment....

I added London, UK -- but feel free to delete if you are not tracking international protests.

"escalating tensions"....
