OK. Let's be honest. Who is thinking about leaving Twitter for Threads? And who is planning on just trying to do both, on top of all the other media?

@CES_Europe Where to next year? I really enjoyed my first CES meeting

[Carl LeVan @Dev4Security]

Happy 4th of July. A great blow against British imperialism

[Carl LeVan @Dev4Security]

@DanJDevine We kinda need your feedback on the paper...

[Carl LeVan @Dev4Security]

@FrontierMin @AU_SIS @phd_sis @CES_Europe Here is a "trawler hook" that Icelandic fisherfolk used to cut British fishing nets underwater during the Cod wars. The president (who is the leading academic on the subject) pointed out that Iceland's maritime waters have repeatedly been extended since

[Carl LeVan @Dev4Security]

We are everywhere! Great to see @AU_SIS @phd_sis alumna Ela Rosmiller here at #CES2023 @CES_Europe in #Iceland. Lots of debates here on populism and its links to authoritarianism, especially in Poland.

[Carl LeVan @Dev4Security]

@DanJDevine @hilda_beastoxf @sotonpolitics Oh wow. Do they offer post post docs? I want to go. PS: discussed you here at the @CES_Europe. Lots of trust talk at the COVID panel

[Carl LeVan @Dev4Security]

@FrontierMin @AU_SIS @phd_sis @CES_Europe Just attended a panel on post Cold War borders. The northern towns in Norway had good trade relations with Russia , emerged in 1990s, but now very upset with the Ukraine War

H.E. Guoni Th. Johannesson, President of #Iceland at @CES_Europe #CES2023 - humor is necessary in political discourse. Humor is fine when you make fun of people in power. It's a sign of confidence. It's very different when your jokes target those who can't defend themselves.

[Carl LeVan @Dev4Security]

H.E. Guoni Th. Johannesson, President of #Iceland at @CES_Europe #CES2023 How did Iceland prevail over UK in dispute over fishing rights? conservation, cynicism, commitment, global compassion, and cold war (leveraging history of close alliance with US), intl law
