Our book is out and available for purchase in the U.K. Writing this book with @cacrisalves @SurbhiKesar & @ingridharvold was a long and arduous process that has arguably changed us all, and we’d be honoured for y’all to read it. Get it now from @politybooks and in bookstores!

Hindus are showering rose petals on Muslims, while they were offering Namaz on the day of Eid in Jaipur, India. This is the India I knew, this is the India where I grew up, this is the India I will be always proud of.

This country ain’t serious bro 😭😭😭

Revising the footage of the attack on our dear colleagues and friends Steve and Ali: The strike was carried out by an american made GBU-38, carrying a MK-82 500 pounds warhead with 200 pounds of explosives and a 300 pounds of forged steel warhead that was made in purpose to be transformed to thousands of shrapnels upon impact. What save both of them was a combination of good luck, fast reaction from Steve as an experienced war reporter wearing body armor (should have been wearing his helmet), and the fact that the bomb missed the concrete by some 50 cm and went inside the previous hole and exploded under the bridge, which saved the journalists from the shrapnels and the direct shock wave.

Reviewing yet another academic paper full of hallucinated references, odd citation practices, and improperly attributed material. To all academic colleagues out there, literally ruining our profession: thanks for nothing.

The moment Israel targeted British journalist Steve Sweeney in southern Lebanon.

The meningitis jokes added to this are somehow quintessentially British

So let me get this straight: Iran blocking the Strait of Hormuz is ,unfair’ but blocking oil shipments to Cuba in order to collapse their whole country is what? Fair?

Had a great time chatting about the Economics discipline and how it distorts our understanding of poverty, uneven development, mining, and international finance. Thanks @claraemattei and @FreeFreeForum!

There is absolutely nothing on this planet worse for my mental health than Outlook

And after brutally killing Lumumba, 65 years later, one decrepit 93-year-old Belgian who’s lived his whole life free finally faces trial for his death. And this is presented as the most justice you’ll get in Europe — a POSITIVE story, a victorious story of ‘holding Belgians accountable.’ This is what stands for justice. This shit.

Managed to catch the London premier of @AbbyMartin’s latest documentary the “Earth’s Greatest Enemy” last night, with a brief discussion afterwards with @kennardmatt. Definitely one of the most important and urgent films of our time, with some of the most intrepid journalists 🤩

Announcement — I am now seeking support to officially launch a little global affairs magazine. We plan to pay writers all around the world, and pay them well, to do our small part to save knowledge and human civilization. It's a Substack. Please join us

@metpoliceuk let me get this straight, you lot are going to investigate me for something I’ve already been investigated for, twice, by two separate forces (you were one of them) which both resulted in no further action? Did Mark Rowley get a call from some of his friends?

women sitting near Wagner Moura at the Oscars tonight:

Whoever came up with Daal Gadot, you deserve an Oscar too. 😭😭😭

2003 vs 2026 — Javier Bardem. Two decades later, the courage to speak up remains.

Meanwhile look at the expressions of our Daal Gadot next to him

Today I learned Habermas was alive yesterday

Me too!!
