Friends & colleagues who still post, retweet, like on Twitter: maybe we should heed this statement from US civil rights groups? Refers to DJT, but not labor practices, Kanye, Saudis...) (my acct will remain open but only for #mastodon #immigration) bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@TenuredRadical @UAW7902 @varsha_venkat_ @insidehighered @chronicle @myHNN @lfeatherz SMART. Thanks for stating this so clearly, Claire!

"Armies of contingent laborers will never align their interests with an institution built to serve the 18%, nor should they." We must rebuild higher education around full-time work. @UAW7902 @varsha_venkat_ @insidehighered @chronicle @myHNN @lfeatherz clairepotter.substack.com/p/tenured-facu…

@JamesGDyke @adam_tooze Thank you for reading my essay, which is just an Afterword to a collection. The full argument is in the book, Anti-Crisis. Metaphors abound ! (-;

"The ends of perpetual crisis" - this smart essay by @RoitmanJanet has been cited as though it were a knockdown critique of the term polycrisis. I would see it as an extremely useful elucidation of what a self-reflexive usage entails. Recommended. acrobat.adobe.com/link/track?uri…

@kelsiemvn on multistake-holder governance (DAOs). Great read (you actually learn something). @perntns

@philippschmitt Fantastic work, Philipp! So great to see this (and to see you online). @jdderian

@adam_tooze Polycrisis signifies multiple causality, if I understand you correctly. But of course any situation that is qualified as a crisis (eg war) has multiple causes. Our lives today are defined by a virus, an invasion, central bank policies, etc. So what?

@adam_tooze We can say that SBF/FTX is in crisis; that the crypto exchanges are currently in crisis. But they were always already undercapitalized/undercollateralized, much like the SUBprime mkts of 2007. Declaring them "in crisis" is a means of intervention, not a description of those mkts.

Adding my thanks! Great convo about alt data and value in finance. It’s online @perntns

Super helpful guidance re #immigration to Mastodon 👇🏼

@Gauntlet_Media @jeanburgess Rapid, yes. But surprising? Not sure, given that the goal of becoming a payments platform is increasingly the only game in town. @Gauntlet_Media: Mastodon is the DuckDuckGo for public conversations but academics aren't comfortable w/ the lack of algos that serve self-promotion

@jeanburgess Yes, lots. I wonder if now, during Twitter's dying breaths, is an opportunity for us to openly discuss and organise where we move next? I'm keen for a not-for-profit, privacy-focused system, like a Duck Duck Go for public conversations.

We are live tomorrow! Thursday, November 10 at 1 PM PST, 4 PM EST, 10 PM CET / 8 AM AET (Friday) Join us: event.newschool.edu/pern2022fall

@TenuredRadical Fetterman WINS !!!!!! Yessss !!!!!

Looks like the Dems may pick up NY 22? Wow.

SCOOP - CNN has obtained the termination notice sent to staff at Twitter's only office in Africa - in Accra 🇬🇭 It was sent to their personal emails but didn't mention any of them by name. Unlike in the US, it doesn't offer next steps or severance

@TimFernholz @samanth_s @adam_tooze @maryhui @TimFernholz I just read your essay in Quartz. Well done, both on so-called polycrisis and the oxymoronic permacrisis. Of relevance: acrobat.adobe.com/link/track?uri… @adam_tooze & I already debated this ages ago...

@samanth_s @adam_tooze @maryhui now now Samanth I distinctly recall you egging me on

.@TimFernholz critiques the "polycrisis," fanned to mega popularity by @adam_tooze: "The job of an intellectual in a complex world is to clarify, & it’s not clear that 'polycrisis' means anything more than its Greek roots: We’ve got a lot of problems." qz.com/emails/quartz-…

@michaelzimmer @jeanburgess same. sex cams. ugh.
