Sergej Sergejitsj woont in een dorp in de grijze zone in de Donbas, aan de rand van Oekraïne. Aan de ene kant vechten de separatisten, aan de andere kant soldaten van het Oekraïense leger. De meeste dorpelingen zijn in 2014 al gevlucht. Er is geen winkel, geen postkantoor en geen stroom meer. Drie jaar later wonen er nog twee mannen: Sergejitsj en Pasjka.
TL;DR Putin is a MGS character: anticom russophobes miss that he doesn't get the USSR+thinks orthodox christianity can magically boost birth rates+stonks, criticism of Russian elections has to be insane because is it is broken the same way as western demo
It occurs to me that, since the demise of Twitter and the half-hearted move to Mastodon, most of my communication on social media is only with people I know. My brain is currently actively calculating if this is a good or a bad thing.
I do miss old Science Twitter, however. Is that still a thing here or elsewhere in another form? Is everyone partying without me? Leads welcomed. #Science#SciComm
My discipline, anthropology, is not seen as "growth" disciplines, and departments are being closed down. But the world needs Anthropology and Anthropologists now more than ever!

My fellow #ActuallyAutistic folks; do you cycle through your fixations? Right now I'm fixated on gaming so much with all these special in-game events that I've put aside language learning. I've also been really into my writing/editing, which is very awesome. But sometimes I'll switch tracks, and I'm all like, "Learn all the languages! Make all the musics! Crochet all the blankets!

The Who taught me the word "sack" in Substitute. The Stones taught me "politesse" in Sympathy for the Devil. Those guys didn't even have the internet. They were facile enough with those words to rhyme them.

In this ground-breaking book, Distinguished Professor Aileen Moreton-Robinson undertakes a compelling analysis of the whiteness of Australian feminism and its effects on Indigenous women.
@rowlandm it's a great book. If you're interested, I created @indigenousauthors so people can share/discuss books like this one. And I made another auto booster @auslit for Australian literature, in general
