Jeg synes også åndelig oprustning lugter af den fascistiske parole "en kultur, en tro, et folk" osv.

Many are saying COVID is back

But the truth is, COVID never left

This image is a meme based on the popular "Batman slapping Robin" comic panel. In this version:

Robin is saying: "COVID IS BACK"

Batman is slapping Robin while responding: "IT NEVER LEFT"

Trump er et produkt af det amerikanske politiske system. Da det danske politiske system producerer sine egne affaldsprodukter, vil en dansk udgave se anderledes ud. Men er lige så farlig.

"Damerne først" på #DR kan være tankevækkende selv om jeg ofte er uenig. Pt kører det tomgang og dagens program var som et racistisk lokum. Libak sidder & gør sig lystig over spiralsagen & grønlandske kvinders børnefødsler mens de to andre fniser. Det var lige så anstødeligt som det er pinligt.

I would really encourage everyone to listen to this 2 1/2 hour meeting in the UNSC from yesterday. It is the meeting where the UNSC present and vote on a draft resolution tabled by the elected members for a ceasefire in Gaza and subsequently react to the veto by the US.

I was really shocked at this story. What shocked me was not the new low of the Danish Socialdemocrats and yet another obnoxious example of their "one people, one culture, one faith" poison, but that @roskildeuni.bsky.social complied. 👇

Louison Cahen-Fourot @louisoncf.bsky.social · 21d

Hostility towards #academia and #immigrants is widespread. #Denmark is no exception. Under political and media pressure, earlier this week @roskildeuni.bsky.social decided overnight to close its Master's degree in Business Administration and Leadership (BAL) from 2026.

No — the WHO has not officially declared COVID-19 “endemic” yet.

The WHO has not declared the COVID-19 pandemic over yet.

It is still considered a global health risk.

So proud of this work. The research was sponsored by @gerda-henkel-stiftung.de and writing it up was challenging, but I did it!
