to be an activist who can actly connect with people, you need to understand why some people in precarity don't want to talk abt serious things. you need to understand the emotional forces that make someone feel safer talking abt sth you might feel is much less important

@oelayat Your sole job as a writer at @nytimes is to find the softest language to describe a genocide

Compare this to a Norwegian prison cell, which has windows, a shower, toilet, desk, tv, and one bed.

The lesson of the Holocaust should not be "but the problem was that it was *us* that got slaughtered" - for goodness sake.

In your own life, stay away from the love represented in the Urdu ghazal. Ghazals depict a lover and a beloved in a relationship of vastly unequal power—whence the piquancy of the ghazal. It is another matter that the madness & deathwardness of ghazal love is true to life.

[Dr Rehana Parveen @rehanaparv]

This quote is at the forefront of my mind when I read the work of any academic.

[DEACTIVATED @thrasherxy]

U.S. society doesn’t hate vigilante narratives. It reboots a new Batman franchise every yr. But billionaire vigilante Bruce Wayne keeps the working class in check. What has the ruling class spooked now is that a vigilante killed a ruling class CEO & the working class cheered.

PhD lady made exactly one mistake, and that was not naming her literature thesis on olfactory ethics “Scents and Sensibility”

[eleanor @eleanordotcomm]

colleagues today saying one of the employees at the Jobs Hub "smells" which "isn't good for its reputation", despite the entire point of the Jobs Hub being to help vulnerable people get a job and now this vulnerable person has got a job. the Olfactory Ethics PhD lady is right !!

[Kareem Carr, Ph.D. @kareem_carr]

people are always saying follow your passion and you'll never work a day in your life but as soon as your passion is olfactory ethics everybody has a meltdown

[Jairo I. Fúnez-Flores @Jairo_I_Funez]

The dissertation on olfactory ethics received unwarranted critiques. These reactionaries, however, will never critique articles like these, which victimize Israeli academics and ignore the fact that Israel systematically destroyed all the universities in Gaza.

[eevee 🦢 @lordeoceanic]

how can you try to discredit the olfactory ethics thesis when men search for fragrances for hours online to smell like a sigma male. smell is important whether y’all want to admit it or not. dior sauvage very quickly went from a high class scent to indicating a player

[Uros @UrosZiv]

One example for those who want the production of knowledge to be more real world applicable: olfactory ethics means your loss of smell always meant covid is a neurologic disease too, but it's still not politically convenient to regard it as such.

@annemichaels_ @GillerPrize Difference between the people who have principals and those who are ok with whitewashing genocide as long as the victims are brown Arabs
