Can't believe I forgot to share how thoughtful the CUP rep from APSA was. I'd hoped to snag a hard copy of my 1st journal pub, but they didn't have the latest RoP left. The perceptive fellow asked if I was in it, took my work addy, & remembered to send it to me! What a Mensch!

BREAKING: Swedish police confirms that 3 participants of the Malmö Gay Pride Parade in Sweden were beaten up for wearing Stars of David. The migrant men who attacked them said: - “Do you support killing children?” - “You f*cking f*ggots” - “You think I won’t hit a f*g?” 🇸🇪🇮🇱

This Naomi Klein teaching people to embrace antisemitism, in the Guardian: 1. the overwhelming majority of Jews worship a false idol; therefore they're not real Jews. 2. The overwhelming majority of Jews "are enraptured by [the false idol, Zionism]. Drunk on it. Profaned by…

Peace on Earth, we need it now... They're reading names out over the radio, the folks the rest of us will never get to know… Gal and Ayat, Hind and Mila. Their lives are bigger than any big idea.


Two seconds scrolling back on here and I'm reminded all over again how this place seems to bring out the worst in everyone. Academics especially, do better. Even here. Even now. Especially now.

Un truc m'échappe. Vous espérez quoi à twitter sur le conflit israélo-palestinien ? Le résoudre depuis votre téléphone ?


So I'm on that other site that looks like how this site used to look. Same handle. Come and play with me! :)

With all the articles coming out about the Nebraska teen sentenced to 90 days in jail for self-managing an abortion, I just wanted to flag something I wrote last week about coverage of the case.

Ok, so the plot twist I wasn't expecting was Reviewer 2 reviewing Reviewer 1. Also if you can't review something, turn it down. These scholars out here breaking their backs trying to get an article out there & you're putting it through ChatGPT? Lazy, ignorant muthafuckas.

There can be few tasks worse than having to read a book by Tony Greenstein. @MarcGoldberg111 has done it, so read his wonderful review - and spot the standard Ken Loach endorsement of this execrable book.

Tony Greenstein has written a book called 'Zionism During the Holocaust'. It's probably the worst book I've ever read. Worth reading the review to know just how low some will stoop in their view of Zionism You can access the full review @fathomjournal fathomjournal.org/book-review-zi…



Question for fellow humanities peeps who've had success with SSHRC: Does one include translations of academic chapters and/or primary source materials in that 4pg "Research Contributions" section? If so, under which heading?

I wrote about the Waterloo stabbing, Jordan Peterson, political transphobia, and why we sure as hell aren't going to stop teaching gender studies. For @nbmediacoop nbmediacoop.org/2023/07/03/com…

Ford said he won't touch the Greenbelt. But now he's paving over 7,400 acres of protected Greenbelt land. This isn't a housing plan—it's a get-rich-quick scheme for insiders and developers. The same ones who gave his party almost $600K in donations.

Contrary to the "Man the Hunter/Women the Gatherer" myth, study finds that women hunted in 80% of surveyed forager societies (1800s to today). In 87% of those societies, women hunted deliberately & not just opportunistically. @NewsfromScience science.org/content/articl…

You might not like the federal government’s digital legislation, but the fact that massive tech companies can block people from easily accessing news is a massive problem.
