Just want to make sure that you are all reminded of this gem. If you haven't read it, do so. It's a classic. And short. And great.

I wish to declare: Gilles Deleuze, you are my person. "[Intellectuals] go from one place where they talk in order to go to another place where they are going to talk even during meals, they talk with the local intellectuals. They never stop talking, and I can’t stand talking, talking, talking, I can’t stand it." maybe this should go in my email signature just so everyone knows exactly where I stand!

Tror ni han skrek: Vad sa du att du gjorde, sa du? När han hörde att lille Karl-Oscar skickat ut en gratis Om kriget kommer broschyr?
@johank76 @JoWa Jag tror att det krävs någon som redan varit en del av offentligheten. Sedan har de ju satt sig i ett hörn och måste agera därefter, alldeles oavsett person. Att ge uppdraget till någon vars högsta merit är vice ordf för ungdomspartiet utan någon som helst allmän igenkänning i en svarte petter-process är ju också att göra uppdraget omöjligt
@JoWa Jag tror ändå statsråden eller Ullenhag skulle kunna ha potentialen att krypa över spärren.

For 3 decades we've been told that more regular & deadly mass shootings is price we pay to keep personal military weapons, necessary to check an authoritarian government: but as masked unidentified thugs kidnap people off the streets, our "well-regulated militia" does nothing to protect our freedom.

Right now, the EU has a huge opportunity to confront the power of the tech oligarchy - and break up Google's toxic adtech monopoly.
Today, we delivered a petition from 115,000+ people from across Europe calling on @EUCommission to #breakupbigtech!
he became furious, refused to believe her innocent, and threatened not to speak a word to her until she confessed everything. His resolve lasted until the next day, when after; a sleepless night he collapsed and died.

Academics are over-explainers. Our articles read like insurance policies, in which we protect ourselves against lawsuits from future readers.
But what if the most profound understanding happens not when everything is explained, but when just enough remains unsaid?
In a new series, @vmmmh explores what happens when we grant our readers the dignity of uncertainty...

Ah that’s nice 😂
SJ is telling me there’s no food on board the train… that I’m not yet on but should have been on (because it’s part cancelled)
But the real issue: we don’t know when it’ll even leave Kiruna for Narvik as the replacement buses are delayed
