- Mid-January weather in southern Sweden is a mix of cold, humid & miserable. To escape it I’m heading to Gothenburg for much awaited FUDEM workshop on ”Envisioning (Un)democratic futures”. Not sure abt. better weather but I count on warm & enlightening intellectual conversations

- And yet it moves! Delighted to be in Bruxelles/ Brussels / Brussel to celebrate 20 yrs of l’atelier genre(s) et sexualité(s) in @ulbruxelles.bsky.social enjoying the generous premises of u.square.brussels
- Delighted to find my very own copy upon my return to Lund of this important scholarly contribution to the study of digital politics, memetic alliances, anti-gender politics & the manosphere, & most importantly transnational feminist resistance by @samakhosraviooryad.bsky.social
- Interesting research about populist radical right in municipalities across 🇸🇪
- 🇸🇪 I am very happy to announce that my first article, based on my master's thesis, is now out in open access in Scandinavian Political Studies! doi.org/10.1111/1467...
- A final push before enjoying le weekend in Paris. No snow in sight but pretty crisp.
- Midway in my research stay at @sciencespo-cee.bsky.social I have the privilege to present my ongoing attempt to bring an intersectional perspective to canonic approaches of radical right populism.
- A super short visit over the bridge to Roskilde university. It was actually the second time ever to visit the campus. I had a generative discussion abt. right-wing populism, retrogressive conservatism as alternative Europeanization process & how a gendered perspective provides a new research agenda.
- Really thankful for having the opportunity to be part of the IAB of this fantastic project which brings together dedicated scholars, practitioners and artists co-creating knowledge. Also for being invited to share my thoughts on these pressing issues.
- Such an inspiring roundtable @men4dem.bsky.social at the University of Bergamo with Cerchio degli Uomini, Bharath Ganesh, @norocel.bsky.social @lizamugge.bsky.social and an incredibly powerful performance by @via-berlin.bsky.social so many thanks
- Paris has been extremely generous with its sights this past month. The surprisingly good weather has allowed me to take long walks discovering both the touristy and less touristy corners of the city.
- 📣 2 yrs postdoc w/in project Gender Struggles in the New Conjuncture - investigates a selection of anti-gender networks & feminist LGBTQI+ networks in 5 European regions. Experience w/h ethnography/ digital network analysis & deep knowledge of language & sociopolitical contexts in Southern Europe.
- The excellent work of editors @albertagiorgi.bsky.social & Hande Eslen-Ziya is bearing fruit, & this edited volume is soon available at a most needed time. In chapter w/h colleagues from Norway Iris B Segers & Charles M Ess we put in perspective institutional ethical challenges in online research

- W/h 99,9% of votes counted (2272 of 2274 voting stations) it seems it seems that Moldova 🇲🇩 will continue its careful balancing act away from Kremlin. W/h a 52,19% voting presence the elections mark the victory of pro-European PAS (50,16%) ahead of pro-Kremlin Blocul patriotic (24,19%). 1/

- Parliamentary elections in 🇳🇴 are another example of collapse of right-wing conservatives: H performed badly & is replaced by radical right populist FrP as largest party on the right. Center-left Ap is largest party though difference between latter two not so big #Norge #Stortingsvalget 2025

- Maybe it was the best of times (see around) to try (& finish) reading Le Guin’s beautiful book. The pace is slow (reason I gave up last time) but perseverance is rewarded w/h seeing though the eyes of a (male) human from Terra the complexity of societies from Gethen whose people are ambisexual 1/
- These days I’ve enjoyed deep & generous conversations w/h Mia Liinason, Marta Kolankiewicz & Luisa Voss abt. democratic decay, transformations of social contract & epistemic contestations at the kickstart of project Conjunctures of Struggle: Gender, sexuality & future of human rights in 21st century
- Nothing says late summer than having a whole cloud of swarming mosquitoes (surprisingly, not visible in the pictures) over one’s head when picking blueberries (look at these beauties) in the Ostrobothnian forest in western 🇫🇮.
- What is resemblance btw. the architectural tumor Tr*ump’s sycophants are going to inflict onto the White House (for ”only” 200 million $) in 🇺🇸 & Ceauşescu’s Bucharest-build monstrosity unironically called ”People’s House” in 🇷🇴 ? I suspect it may be called ”monumental autocratic chic”.
- Not sure it was the wisest decision to visit Alhambra Granada in the dead of summer in July, but here you have a snapshot to (sweatily) brag about it. The white marble was simply blinding, but a whole fountain with felines was worth the effort.
