@blou @UNALOficial Muchas gracias, estoy pendiente!

[Olga L Gonzalez @blou]

La @UNALOficial no respondió a estos requerimientos. Varias personas se quejaron de lo mismo que se señala acá. Es un abuso con los aspirantes. Parece que esperaran que los entutelen, siendo que sería más fácil para todos, más eficaz, que atendieran y resolvieron el problema.

La @UNALOficial acaba de dejar por fuera a gran parte de los aspirantes de su concurso profesoral por una estúpida y colombiana leguleyada... 😡

Esto es indignante, abusivo y contrario a toda lógica, les quiero contar:

February 2026 may have been the strangest month since social media has existed: we went from an elite that eats babies, to young people who believe they are animals, and ended with a friendless ape being bullied.

I'm thrilled to announce that my book "José Celestino Mutis and Newtonianism in New Granada, 1762-1808" is about to be published by @Palgrave (Thread 1/5)

[Sebastián Molina-Betancur @smolinab1]

This book is a contribution to our understanding of the role of the circulation of Newtonian science in the configuration of the intellectual milieu in the dawn of the independence of #Colombia (4/5)

[Sebastián Molina-Betancur @smolinab1]

I'm happy to announce that the focus section I edited for @galilaeana about #colonialscience has been published. You can find interesting, #OpenAccess articles by @PinedaNydia, @_sergio_oe, and Reneé Raphael on https://t.co/9XEqkEpp4x

You may believe the world has changed a bit when a South American gives a lecture on a mestizo cosmographer in one of Mussolini's former residences at the times of the so-called Republica di Salò. #histsci #colonialism
