We draw on the case of the co-living sector in Brussels to argue that we are witnessing a process of life course segmentation - a form of class monopoly rent - enabling rent extraction across a wider swath of the life course, but also deepening the extraction of rent at each life course stage.
What a remarkably stupid own goal... 😒
For anyone who thinks this government actually cares about universities & colleges, consider the following statement from the budget.
"New international student arrivals have also declined by approximately 60 per cent compared to 2024. This is a start, but
we recognise there is more work to do."

Deux pistes cyclables à Montréal qui compétitionnent avec trois ponts de New York. Je pense que nous ne réalisons pas la chance que nous avons que le vélo prenne une aussi grande place dans notre mobilité collective à Montréal.

Of all the astonishingly brutal stats that have emerged over the course of the genocide in Gaza the one that pops into my mind everyday is that Israeli attacks are the 4th leading cause of violent deaths for kids under 5 in the whole world. Heartbreaking and beautifully illustrated by Mona Chalabi.
