@scholarfreak Hello Roli! Sorry for the delay (I'm not on Twitter anymore but come back every once in a while to check for messages) Thank you for your kind message. I hope you are doing well, too, and spending your time on something fulfilling and meaningful! <3

Ok this is really the last nail in the coffin. You have to pay for extra security or risk getting hacked. Amazing business model. Twitter I used mostly for work stuff anyway. So see you on LinkedIn I guess?

[JUSTICE @JUSTICEhq]

Today, @CIVICUSMonitor has downgraded UK civic space to ‘obstructed’. This means rights to freedom of expression, assembly and association are being undermined in the UK. A sad reflection of the current state of human rights & rule of law in the UK, which must be reversed. (1/2)

Always shocking to see UN internships, in the world's most expensive cities, are unpaid and don't cover any expenses. You end up with people from Western countries taking up all the roles and even then, mostly only the wealthy from those countries.

@nthnashma There's more than one type of tofu at the German supermarkets?! Wow vielfalt

[Cristina Bacalso @cristinabacalso]

@nthnashma Don't buy those ones! The ones from Asian stores are so much better (and varied)

@BoweFrankema Longest was 3 weeks back to Canada and it sucked! Only saving grace is that she usually living her best life with her extended fam (either you guys or in Bernau) 💜

@Dan_Moxon Honestly private Signal channels is where its at ;)

[María Rodríguez Alcázar @Maria_Alcaz]

Belarus expands the death penalty to "treason against the state" - a vague and open-to-interpretation concept that might be used to suppress dissent even more.

Read the statement of @RADA_Belarus, the National Youth Council of Belarus 👇
