Unfortunately, this place has become a fascist hellhole, and the only way to sink it is by denying it exploitable, valuable content. So, I'll leave. If you want to find me under my usual handle, I am at the usual suspects. .

Congratulations to my master student Franziska Reiner for successfully defending her master thesis on lepton collider physics - you can read all about it at Time to get one to test her predictions 🙂

I am not particularily good at tagging, so here comes the tag of him: @VeiderFabian.

Congratulations to my master student Fabian Veider, who just defended successfully his thesis! He did a tour de force in augmented perturbation theory with four times more diagrams than in the ordinary one. But we should see it at a lepton collider -

You can now also find me in the blue sky, using the same handle.

RT @jasonhickel: This is the sort of action we need. Target fossil capital.

Things like this.

Social, justice, and climate issues cannot be treated independently. I hope the next #ClimateStrike will be at companies, which live on fossil fuels, or make money off it big time. Hitting where it hurts. Because, they want to live, and their children to live, or?.

The frustrating part is that this attitude changes if people are actually better off. So it is a vicious downward spiral. One, into which neoliberals feed into frantically, as they are better able to exploit fascist systems, as fascism is inherently corrupt. We see this already.

RT @JKSteinberger: These words of Khaled Mattawa are not just for Libya, but the world. These disasters ARE political. How we prevent other….

Today is #ClimateStrike reminding us that the #ClimateCrisisIsNow. What I can't stop thinking about is the devastating result of social sciences that people prefer to treat others badly than being themselves better off - hence rising fascism. We need to learn to care to survive.

Give our new COST action COMETA (@multibosons ) a follow! @UniGraz, @SimonPlaetzer and myself are in one way or the other involved, and we only get started!.

Everyone, who is not leaving this summer with at least understanding the melancholy of losing what we had is in denial of what is to come. #ClimateCrisisIsNow.

Being able to do so is part of my privileges. Still need to do much better such that more people are protected.

Unfortunately, @UniGraz still does not provide air filtration in all rooms. Given the rising numbers and the incoming winter, I therefore took things in my own hand. At least my office, which is also heavily used as a meeting room by my group, is now a bit safer #CovidIsNotOver

Congratulations to Max Pfandner for successfully finishing his bachelor thesis on the eigenspectrum of the Faddeev-Popov operator using a variational method -

A possibility to think about is to limit the amount of third-party funding a single person can have at any given time. It would require more cooperation of seniors, and would avoid concentrating too much power on single sources of ideas, and allow more scientists to participate.

On my way to the ESI Vienna for a week of interactions about QFT at colliders. Meet me there!. And since the Covid waste water monitor (only possibility left in Austria) point straight up, #TheMaskStaysOn sincae #CovidIsNotOver

Found myself yesterday for the first time discussing holiday locations based on how long they are still possible in the relevant future due to the ongoing #ClimateCatastrophe . This was not about a far away place, but about the Eider peninsula in northern Germany.

Back in office again!. Was good to take a break, and remind oneself of what else is out there, and worth working for. White reindeer are said to bring luck, so back to work, and good luck to you all!
