Für wen ist eigentlich diese Werbung gedacht, liebe @uni-kiel.de? #IchBinHanna
Montagmorgen 7:30 Uhr am Kieler Hbf. Ich pendele nach Greifswald, weil meine #WissZeitVG Stelle an der CAU Kiel ausläuft, und werde mit dem Werbeslogan begrüsst: „Keine Lust mehr auf Pendeln? Dann bleib doch einfach hier! Karriere an der Uni Kiel.“ Liebe Uni Kiel, ich fühle mich verhöhnt!

Mark Carney is about to announce more of his “elbows up” major projects.
But under the surface, one that’s being sold as an Indigenous-led LNG project is actually — spoiler — American as hell.
That’s not even the worst part!

Epistemic violence against sexual abuse accusers—smearing them as deluded, crazy, or incompetent—is something rapists know works, and they conspire to do it.
Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

After responding to critics, Riley & Brenner redefine political capitalism: profits now arise less from production than from politically engineered rents. The circuit shifts from M–C–M′ to M–A–M′—money to asset to money plus surplus—value sustained by inflated assets.

Our study (@jbpilet.bsky.social)suggests that when a mainstream right-wing party signals willingness to rule with the radical right, support for the radical right rises — while the mainstream gains nothing.
👉 A legitimisation effect.

Political parties must shift immediately and dramatically to the left to avoid alienating these frustrated and abandoned young women. Am I doing this right?
Our recent poll found that women 28 and younger skew substantially more left than the national average. Nearly 80 percent of Gen Z women want abortion to be legal and seven in 10 want gender-affirming care to be accessible for trans adults.
Gen Z women are the most liberal group in the country
