This Niu Lai movie being so successful in China is just a sign that people would rather watch paint dry than have AI in their movies

Ist die Soziologie zu links? Wer das behauptet [...] verkennt das eigene Fach und betreibt das Geschäft seiner Gegner. Fügt sich die wortreiche Warnung vor der weltfremden Soziologie nicht allzu nahtlos in die Ressentimentkonjunktur unserer neoautoritären Zeiten? (1/10) 🧵

As someone who is about to teach more about the Livestreaming format in the future, Kai Cenat's streamer university lectures are interesting to me. So much first hand knowledge packed into livestreaming content itself. Streamers teach a class of streamers, everyone being live. Its peak reality TV.

Wissenschaftliche Perspektiven auf die faschistische Gefahr
Mit der im Rahmen der Reihe Public Sociology von der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Soziologie (DGS) geförderte Veranstaltungen ›Bevor es zu spät ist‹, wollen wir mit öffentlicher Wissenschaft dazu beitragen, diese Entwicklung zu begreifen und Antworten auf sie zu finden. Zentral sind dabei die Fragen, wann und weshalb politische Programme und Praktiken von Ausschluss, Gewalt und Freiheitsbeschränkung als faschistisch gelten können, welche gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen den Trend dorthin bedingen und wie demokratische Kräfte ihn zurückdrängen können.

PSA: Go to your YouTube app, options, then time management, then click the new option time limit for shorts. Then set that limit to zero minutes. Shorts are now gone from mobile. On PC, you can escape the brainrot with the browser addon "Unhook" save yourselves some time and braincells!

Today the students of my uni hold a farewell party to a study program that has been cut. Several profs that are affected have been invited too. I for one am looking forward to the chaos that will ensue tonight lol. Don't think the new management is prepared for how bad this will look for them 🤣

Just held a block course and have to hold three more 6h sessions next week. Then travel to Berlin for a presentation. Then travel to Brussels for another presentation. Then prep my PhD defense on December 15th. I'm back to working 12-16h days. I hope I don't collapse before can finish everything 🫠

I really hope I won't need to actually use linkedin in the future for work or something. I just went there to check someone's profile and saw a few posts that were doing the rounds and it was physically revolting to read. If I ever post shit like this y'all have permission to punch me

I was hanging out in Shattrath and Dalaran so much as a teen that I realized these MMOs and Virtual Worlds became genuine social sites, no longer games to me. That really was the initial spark that made me a media sociologist

Found a Nick Yee quote from his 2014 book "The Proteus Paradox" that resonates with me. I think of this a lot when I read papers and posts on how the Metaverse will revolutionize remote work and meetings 😅
