Glad that Zoom enables more people to tune into this – really appreciate how @FaithCHillis discerns the connections to global capitalism, e.g. https://t.co/oCdO8dDPmh

Pres. Zelenskyy's full address to the Russian people, now with English subtitles, thanks Reddit u/Jordan117

[Patrick Moelleken 🇺🇦 @PMoelleken]

.@ZelenskyyUa's tv address to the Russian (!) people might be the most moving speech that I've ever seen in my entire life. The whole world needs to see, understand and share this crucial Ukrainian message.

Thank you to @SmolkinVictoria for a brilliantly clear, critical analysis of Putin's 02/21 speech

[Victoria Smolkin @SmolkinVictoria]

“That the #Bolsheviks managed to reconstitute something that looked like the #Russian empire at all is a testament not just to the radical upheavals of the time, but also to their political shrewdness.” 1/3

@tfss Aw, thanks, Tomás! And thanks to the writer, Dr. @JenLouiseWilson, for her eloquence and intellectual generosity!

[Pey-Yi Chu @peyyichu]

@yanareads @brdemuth @JenLouiseWilson I wonder if that might be a typo from somewhere because I believe Norilsk was established only in the 1930s!

[Pey-Yi Chu @peyyichu]

@GordinMichael It would never have materialized without your guidance and encouragement!

[Pey-Yi Chu @peyyichu]

@JenLouiseWilson Wow, @JenLouiseWilson, thank you for the elegant distillation of the book and for bringing an academic work to a wider audience! I especially loved the connection to Soviet children's literature – it's an honor to see the book through your eyes!

[Pey-Yi Chu @peyyichu]

@PederRoberts @brdemuth Flying colors, indeed. Congrats, Dr. Dima! I've never attended a dissertation defense with an audience of 40+ people – an indication of how rich and fascinating the work is. And @brdemuth was an amazing interlocutor, so discerning in her summary, so incisive in her questions!

[Pey-Yi Chu @peyyichu]

@steven_seegel @UTCREEES @UTAustin @SlavXRadio Warmest congratulations, Steven!! "I want to build, all that I can." <---- I love this!

19th-c. germ theory turned the focus from "the soil to the seed" (from body to pathogen), but chronic conditions like long COVID are bringing attn back to "the soil" – immune sys, body, env. Hadn't thought of it in those terms before. https://t.co/oOFFqor0K6

My heart goes out to a talented colleague and spirited and beloved individual. If you are able, please chip in.

Today I got the crappy news that my breast cancer has taken up shop in my brain. The absolute little shite. This is a new frontier for us & will require $£ for the best treatments. My partner, mum and dear friends have set up a Gofundme to help https://t.co/xz7r2Ep6b7
