Grief, today, as I reflect on Nika Shakarami's last hours. As reconstructed in agonising detail by the BBC, using classified documents from the IRGC. In September 2022, sixteen-year-old Nika was protesting in the streets of Tehran when she was seized by regime thugs and thrown…

Finished Harrison’s book on the history and politics behind the translation process during the first encounter of Chinese and British empires. Truly appreciative of its biographical approach. Takeaway: Languages are fundamental, and it’s a privilege to be able to study them!

Did you know? Sudan has more pyramids than any country in the world, even more than Egypt. More than 200 pyramids were built in Sudan, as opposed to the 118 pyramids in all of Egypt, during the ancient reign.

@Acyn This is the actual story republicans are going with: Trump built the wall and gave us world peace and then Democrats and China (Trump’s pal Xi) made up a phony virus that doesn’t make you sick—and trump caught it and made a beautiful vaccine that kills you and he saved us—before…

Mr. Netanyahu, antisemitism is a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has done unspeakable harm to millions. Do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal war policies of your extremist and racist government.

@MarcoPolo1967 @rijswijkjan1 Gemeenteambtenaren zouden spontaan een beroerte krijgen als ze hun core-business kwijtraken: het eindeloos vertragen van woningbouwprojecten. Zet in landelijke gebieden per gemeente een paar honderd zelfvoorzienende chalets neer voor een fractie van de kosten en de zaak is rond.
Politici logen altijd al. Maar tegenwoordig is het in een feature not a bug. Als je maar vaak genoeg dezelfde halfbakken feitenvrije mening uitbraakt, lopen demense vanzelf achter je aan. In postmoderne tijden is de waarheid en feitelijkheid ook maar een van de vele meningen.

What is the difference between Hokkien, Minnan and Taiwanese? There is often some confusion and controversy about this. Simply put: Minnan 閩南 is an overarching category that comprises Hokkien, Teochew (, and Hainanese, but there is no consensus about its inclusion). 1/

@MathijsvdLoo Bedankt! Ik heb het aan NL uitgevers voorgelegd maar er was weinig animo. Maar @monsoon_books in de UK geeft het uit. Die zijn specialisten op zuidoost Azie. Maar hoop dat je iedereen kan laten weten dat dit boek nu op de markt is.

@DalrympleWill @shantanughosh @monsoon_books Yes, although that is the part I had NOTHING to do with! Haha. Monsoon, the publisher got that one. It’s a great cover indeed. Thanks for getting a copy. And look forward to your book. Think I got a small collection of your books already.

@zhao_dashuai @dezent84 Just like Ukraine will be the end of russia, Taiwan will be the end of communist China.
@zhao_dashuai @dezent84 Not inevitable at all. You could just accept that Taiwan doesn't want you. Just get on with your lives, rather than risk a lot of lives and a lot of wealth just to claim this island, or rather whatever is left of it after the war.
