What my work email client flags as spam: emails from my boss, my Director, international collaborators. What is not flagged as spam: japanese kitchen knives, anti-fungal pills, endless predatory conferences and journal enquiries

There will always be someone else to blame and there will always be a substantial enough group to believe it.

Isn't Politico a Springer publication now? "Edgy contrarian, lets mock the left" takes that inevitably lead to "the fascists might not be so bad" is the usual direction (see Welt in Germany)

Saxony Anhalt. We in Saxony are not at this level of idiocy (yet)

Here in Germany the Putinists took the Presidency and soon will take the Governmental leadership in a State where Russia attempted to launch a terrorist attack against its Airport. Even when ruled as a threat to the constitution. Checks and balances?

My fear remains not that the AfD takes power by winning an election here in Saxony in 2029, but the CDU decides its easier than compromising in their minority coalition with SPD and align with the AfD instead mid-term, and the aftermath is a chaotic fragmentation of anti-AfD options.

It's genuinely upsetting seeing good people constantly being let go through no fault of their own, but because hands are tied by political decisions.

Ongoing brutal budget cuts to research; ongoing wait for citizenship and even difficulties finding a lawyer for advice about it; AfD now running a neighbouring state with CDU help; ex-Head of intelligence arrested for espionage.... The usual gripes...

The centre-right in much of Europe doing the "we are polling in the high teens despite going off to the right because we're being punished for being too left-wing when in government" strategy while never being challenged on the fact you need an electoral majority to govern.

They'll make it cover London and the Home counties and then say "it's too expensive to defend the North....Scotland? Oh well"

Oh it gets better. They take one machine, put their dirty sweaty towel on it. Do one set. Scroll phone. Leave sweaty rags on that machine and move to another machine. Scroll phone. Do one set. Don't clean it. Leave water bottle there. Move back to first machine. FOR 30 MINUTES

At 16 I left the country by myself. 16% of 17-year olds can't even leave the property line? My inner researcher screams "must be uncorrected sampling bias because that's not possible!"

Wasn't the left block also quite far behind the right at the time the last election was called?

At first I was willing to give him a chance. But this is appalling and his conduct is pathetic.

I am just sick of the world. I watched something yesterday where the villain was to create an earthquake to destroy everyone and said "we're destroying the planet, widening inequality and giving power to grotesque people and it's got to stop" and I found myself thinking "well yeah, fair point".

It’s hard to argue the AfD is just grievance of some ungrateful east Germans when literally the richest and most disproportionately powerful state has such a significant proportion of reactionary voting for the AfD despite two somewhat populist led parties already polling strongly

Jon Morris @jmorris14.eurosky.social · 04/10/2026
Bavaria. The richest and most culturally dominant state in Germany. AfD are polling at 20%. But the Governing coalition is made up of the most conservative part of the Conservative faction and a party to the right of that. It’s national problem

Jon Morris @jmorris14.eurosky.social · 04/10/2026
The AfD would not be able to poll at 29% nationally without significant support outside of the old east and enabled by the establishment there

Tom Morello supports the left-wing candidate? This is big news worthy of attention…

The FT suddenly runs some articles about housing politics and how Sanchez is wrong. Their articles on Spain are weird (compared to say…on Germany)

I wonder when they’ll start suggesting some ‘adventures’ into Poland for ‘German lands’

Very briefly. We saw them in a tiny venue in Bratislava a few years ago and saw Chris running around the bar area and said hello. Met Keith and got a photo with him

Having an opinion on Gaza is absolutely fine, as is being critical of the Israeli government and being concerned at what’s happening there. Making the issue your entire personality and twisting into defending some dark positions on it is absolutely baffling.

I find it fascinating speaking to people from in and around Dresden, who would have been young children in the early 90s. The transition was tough and so many people left. Th idea that the system and culture would just change with a bit of cash thrown at it is ridiculous
