WTF 🤬 AfD-Verbot jetzt!
In dem Video ist zu sehen, wie ein erwachsener Mann Jugendliche drangsaliert, bedroht und körperlich angreift. Er tritt nach ihnen, zieht einen Jugendlichen am Ohr und zwingt zwei von ihnen, eine auf dem Boden liegende Deutschlandfahne abzulecken. Die Jugendlichen wirken

This makes me so sad and furious
9 December 1942 | A Dutch Jewish girl, Florence Vigevino, was born in The Hague.
In February 1944 she was deported to #Auschwitz with her mother Mietje. They were murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

This is the unfortunate reality in German academia. Most scholars have to drop out, but usually they are not welcome in other places. If you're an international researcher (this is my case), the situation is even more tough & options for employment outside of science are very [extremely] limited.
German academia: great place to work? You should think twice before giving it a try: Permanent positions are very rare, most scholars have to drop out after some precarious years. @dianakwon.bsky.social has written a great piece about this for @nature.com and also talked to yours truly. #IchBinHanna

Germany is one of the most popular destinations for students and scholars worldwide, but those pursuing academic careers face significant hurdles to success.

Is embodied carbon a vanity metric?
With ambitions for regenerative architecture increasing, it is vitally important that we measure the right things in trying to get there, say Barnabas Calder and Florian Urban

March 1969, Chen Wanli and his wife committed suicide at home. They were among the persecuted intellectuals in the Cultural Revolution. My latest paper traces Chen’s career from medicine, photography, archaeology to the museum, showing precarity and resilience of museum professionals in 20-C China.
