Es belustigt (oder erschreckt?) mich schon etwas, dass die Aussage, dass nominal linke Parteien linke Politik machen sollten, so einen Nerv trifft in diesem Land.

I guess we have to face facts, none of us will ever be as good as anything as Adrian Chiles is in finding the least important wrinkles of every day life and writing about it in the way you would never fucking guess.

Wie kann man sich nicht wünschen, dass Wohnen dem privaten Markt und diesen Immohaien entzogen wird? Wie soll man Mieten für 2000, 3000 oder 4000€ für normale kleine Wohnungen zahlen? Es braucht eine Revolution der Würde im Alltag. Man kann und darf so nicht mit Menschen umgehen.

Alles was falsch ist mit dem aktuellen System: eine alte Frau wird delogiert, weil ihre Miete absurd angehoben wird, nachdem sie jahrzehntelang in ihrer Wohnung gewohnt hat. Die Aufregung ist zu viel - ihre Gesundheit knickt ein und sie verstirbt im Krankenhaus. Es ist zum weinen.

Wie traurig! Die 87-jährige Maricarmen Abascal, die wegen ihrer Delogierung im Zentrum der aktuellen Wohnkrise in Spanien stand, ist heute gestorben.

One of the biggest myths is that men rape by mistake. Like, "Oh, they need consent training." But research is very clear: Sexual violence is not a mistake. It is an intentionally made decision by people who know they don't have consent. They just don't prioritize consent over things like status, power, domination, and sexual gratification. For my research, I got a certificate of confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health, so my notes couldn't be subpoenaed. One of the reasons I call them perpetrators in my work is because every single person I interviewed confessed in that context. The first question I would ask them was, "When you received that email from Title IX that you were under investigation, did you know what it was about?" Every perpetrator I interviewed said "yes." If sexual assault were a miscommunication, you would be wondering, What have I possibly done wrong? That is not the way that any of them reacted because they knew.

I spent a year watching school administrators do their jobs—and interviewing the students most impacted. I spoke to @thecut.com in a long-form Q&A about what I saw. Mainly, a system designed to protect perpetrators and punish victims in each and every case.
