Jeg har i dag i @politiken et indlæg om de mange misforståelser om følelsesliv der kan opstå i forældrekompetence-undersøgelser. De kan få voldsomme konsekvenser, hvis de kommer til at danne basis for en begrundelse om tvangsfjernelser politiken.dk/debat/debatind…

Women know that men don’t scheme to “dress like girls” to assault them. They do it every day in broad daylight. And the ones in power protect each other to keep it quiet. Just ask the House Ethics Committee. Or the President-elect of the United States. Leave women alone.

Bodies can be embarrassing Your nose bleeds. You defecate blood by a tree. You vomit in front of a disappointed-looking pig People have always had these problems: so next time they happen to you, think of these gentle, unselfconscious 17th century Europeans and feel less alone

@M_Flohr Makes sense, in this case I also suspect there's some (inter)disciplinary stuff going on which makes it hard to place

@DitteMunch Not quite a philosopher, but it depends on whether it seems to be related to quality or focus. I usually send it past a colleague or research group for comments, if I suspect it is the first and go for a quick resubmit somewhere more relevant, if I suspect it is the second.

Three important and exciting events coming up at @uni_copenhagen this month: Monday the 25th, @rune_s_r will talk about his work with the Uyghurs in Xinjiang: how to find trustworthy information in an authoritarian environment while avoiding endangering people?

Who is working on the history of anger? #emostorians #twitterstorians

@KatieEBarclay A few yes, but not this final version. But it's a co-written piece, so been through lots of rewrites. But definitely considering sending it by some people again to give it a check.

@DitteMunch Has it been read by colleagues? If they think it’s solid, then just stick it somewhere else.

@giovanni1085 @koebenhavns_uni @UCPH_Research Welcome to Copenhagen!

Personal updates: I started a new position as Full Professor at the University of Copenhagen, Department of Communication. @koebenhavns_uni @UCPH_Research. We will establish a new Center focused on supporting digital and computational research across all the departments at the Faculty of Humanities. Several senior staff positions will be announced soon. I will continue with my work at the University of Bologna, where we just incorporated a new spin-off with @almacube called Mithril Minds (mithrilminds.ai): we plan to develop a novel generative AI solution for legal compliance. Follow us for updates: @mithrilminds. Lastly, we have exciting developments at Odoma (odoma.ch), with several openings coming in 2025 for engineers based anywhere in Switzerland. @wrongworld72 @mr56k. I very much look forward to all these new developments. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss any of the above with me.
