Yesterday, I had one of those disaster-bureaucracy days in Berlin, being sent from one building to another & nothing worked. Today, things began similarly, but I was lucky enough to interact with 4 super nice, sympathetic, and helpful ladies. Thanks to them, it was a successful-bureaucracy morning

Das Problem mit Legenden ist, dass sie irreführend sein können. Der Opsroom war NICHT das Herzstück Cybersyns. Die Geschichte mit dem Pisco Sour ist lediglich eine westliche Karikatur. Im Archiv findet sich nichts über Cocktails—nur (Bonsiepe-)Geschichten Cc @annanosthoff.bsky.social

I'm excited to release part 3 of my series on beyond capitalism with @Autonomy_Inst. The big question people often asked about my recent work is—ok sure, but how do we get there? Please have a look at my first sketch of an answer to that question. autonomy.work/portfolio/be...

I've been discussing the Malvinas/Falklands a lot. Some strongly believe that it is ironic for anticolonial leftists to defend Argentina's position because in this context it would be the colonialist imperialist side. I push back against that claim here: opiniojuris.org/2026/04/30/t...

The Malvinas/Falklands Dispute in Anti-Imperialist History

Two Central European powers are now planning to develop a nuclear arsenal together. Two countries that have been besieged by internal fascism for years. And in one of these countries, the local fascist party could join the government coalition in the foreseeable future. The stupidest move ever!
