I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky
Reminds me of Mussolini's blackshirts and their motto "me ne frego" (literally "I don't care"). Same defiant vibes.
C'était un temps déraisonnable
On avait mis les morts à table
On faisait des châteaux de sable
On prenait les loups pour des chiens
Tout changeait de pôle et d'épaule
La pièce était-elle ou non drôle?
Moi, si j'y tenais mal mon rôle
C'était de n'y comprendre rien

Ouch. It must be so frustrating. What does it feel like in the US currently? From the outside, it looks like everything is going downhill very quickly...
The pros and cons of annexing a sovereign county... In what kind of insane world are we drifting?
United States slipping towards fascism makes the whole world a more dangerous place. With the Balkans literally in my backyard, this one strikes very close to home...
Thanks! I miss this beautiful campus. Though the views I get during my daily commute over here are not bad either!
