Just so weβre clear:
β Travelling clandestinely or in a small boat to seek asylum: wrong
β Travelling safely and regularly to seek asylum: also wrong
Really enjoyed reading this article, well worth your time!
Given you canβt even get a quote right Iβm guessing you over rely on them
They include it in their AI disclaimer on every assignment. They give me hope for the future.
My takeaway from the latest AI discourse is that the methods bros have spent so long relying on R theyβve forgot theyβre supposed to understand at least some fundamentals of research.
Probably in a backlog with the AI peer reviewers
Youβve posted a blog written by AI that tells the reader to spend time locked in a room with AI. And you think this is a good thing?
Even *if* machines could do these jobs better than humans, why would we want them to? If we outsource intellectual curiosity and critical thinking to machines, what is left of the human?
As one of my students frequently tells me, βunbridled convenience rots the soulβ
if you think this or are acting upon it you donβt deserve an academic job. people who boast publicly about how theyβre too lazy to do their own research and writing and by extension make it harder for anyone else to do it properly are scabs and should be shunned by any serious researchers
It depends if you want to treat migrants as people or resources
No, we need immigration. We are a post-industrial ageing society with an economy almost entirely financed by rent extraction and services.
*also, affordable trains and rivers not full of sewage would be nice.
The problem with Labour is they think immigration is the battleground that they need to win.
All people want is to have a stable job, see a gp, and be able to afford a house.
All else is distraction

I cannot recommend enough this paper by @benrosher.bsky.social published in @politicalgeography.bsky.social a few days ago to anyone interested in borders. Such a careful and nuanced analysis of the EU settlement scheme and accountability for the effects of state border regimes.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was university travel agents

I demonstrate that the increasingly fragmented nature of state bordering, through devolution, delegation, and digitisation, introduces an accountability gap which enables states to distance themselves from accountability for the effects of their border policies.
The state is responsible for inscribing its borders, but who is accountable for the effects of the border? Who ensures that the rights of those targeted are honoured, holds the authority to remedy issues that arise from enacting the border, and can be confronted to honour these obligations?

Olga Tokarczuk casually throwing out the most poetic description of ontological security ever written.
He can (and should) do all of these things. But until he can call reform racists with his full chest instead of pandering to their voters he is nothing but harmful to the country
