Same in Europe. Rarely seen anything like it. Even this week still, despite us being a Taylor Swift household, KPDH is our favourite playlist atm. *Gotta Drink Every Drop*

So happy to see this out! We caution against excessive optimism that the opposition will restore countries back to their democratic trajectories after electoral victory. Weakened institutions and the memory of repression makes it tempting to continue rather than buck the trend of autocratization.

Conventional wisdom says that, once in power, opposition parties will return backsliding countries to the democratic path. In reality, not only is this not true, but it is not uncommon for the opposition to adopt the autocratic habits of the regime they replaced.

When you ask a #teenager to illustrate the place cards for a family reunion. This is what the slightly sexist uncle got…

As an outsider, I find it insane that a for-profit organisation managed to present itself as a scientific, professional organisation for years. But continuing to organise an alternative conference to undermine the not-for-profit EPSS is beyond insane.

This is amazing news and what a beautiful message in your thread. Glad the grant went to you!

Eens! Maar ook twijfel... Als mensen doen alsof de dader een extreem linkse woke social justice warrior was, terwijl hij gewoon “If you read this, you are gay, LMAO” op de kogel kerfde mag dan mag dat toch ook tegengesproken worden? Ik twijfel hoor. Benieuwd wat je denkt.

Nee, om een aanname die niet zo blijkt te zijn, gebaseerd op onderzoek. Later!
