USA-Today interviewed me for their program 'The Excerpt'. Delighted that I could share my analysis with American viewers (and everyone else, since YouTube is global). Share it with those who you believe should watch it, thanks! youtube.com/watch?v=9VJ86e…

UK Climate activists receive 4 to 5 year prison sentences for nonviolent protests. Has any of those responsible for the lies spread by the Big Oil companies, which led to foreseeable deaths of thousands of people, ever been sent to jail? theguardian.com/environment/ar…

Studenten en universitair personeel! Komen jullie ook allen naar de Alternatieve Opening van het Academische Jaar? -> 2 september, 11 uur, domplein Utrecht. Voor wie nog niets weet wat er op het spel staat: aob.nl/actueel/artike…

Waaw. Dan zoekt oudere broer een oplossing en dan zo reageren? Benieuwd wat deze conducteur als uitleg geeft. Lijkt mij in ieder geval totaal disproportioneel. Sterkte aan jullie kiddo. Hoe reageerde die?

Are there any climate/environmental scientists & scholars who have written a blog or book review of Hannah Ritchie’s ‘Not the End of the World’? #climate

This is great news for British households ánd for climate action! But the details of the Public-Private Partnerships are important, especially on price-regulation and, ultimately, taming the profit-seeking behaviour of corporations.

Hilarious! But also a very clear warning for US voters… #JDVance #MAGA

Google Maps does not allow me to post critical reviews of two pro-Israel places in Prague, and the reasons they give only raise further questions. crookedtimber.org/2024/07/31/tro… Google Maps - would you mind explaining to our readers how this works?

my biggest social media wish for 2024 is that everyone I follow here on Twitter would move over to either Bluesky or Mastodon. The only reason I'm sometimes still here, despite serious moral qualms about still being here, is because so few of you are there...

Could we please use this momentum of - entirely valid- lethal critique on Musk to ALL MOVE TO OTHER PLATFORMS THAT ARE (MORE) DEMOCRATICALLY RUN - like the one where the skies are blue, or the elephant? I'd like to close my account here, but can only do so if all of you move too.

Ik schreef vanochtend een draadje op de Andere Site met de Blauwe Hemel, over mijn ervaringen over het stuk dat Michael Merry in NRC publiceerde vandaag. Maar ik ga het hier niet herhalen. We zullen uiteindelijk toch moeten verhuizen naar de andere sites...

Op de Site met de Blauwe Hemel hebben heel wat mensen een account, maar hebben daar voor het laatst 7 maanden geleden iets gepost. Voor die mensen: kom terug. Ik ben er nog geen fascist tegengekomen en je posts daar geven geen legitimiteit aan het imperium v/e aspirant-dictator.

I really think we should all do this. Our posts here are the basis for the business model of the owner of this site. It's pretty similar to boycotting and divesting, which we know from other social struggles. Why don't we give ourselves a hard deadline? I propose: September 6th.

Over at the reasonable site, a claim by the political philosopher Chris Bertram that I endorse:

Dutch university staff: want to know how to raise your voice against the imminent budget cuts? Here's a list of things you can do. crookedtimber.org/2024/09/06/act…

Now that an increasing number of colleagues and students have asked me how they can contribute to the protests against the budget cuts imposed on Dutch universities, here's a detailed "Action List" written by Ingrid Robeyns @[email protected] Spread the word! crookedtimber.org/2024/09/06/act…
