This screenshot is from a form that I had to fill out in order to apply for #NSF math research funding through CU Boulder when I was there. It seems that there is a list of forbidden (or at least discouraged) countries when it comes to collaborating. Now that I don't expect any funding from the United States, I would be interested in collaborating with more people from these countries. I'm particularly interested in #Cuba and #Venezuela since I'd like to improve my Spanish.

I have linked to videos from OTR a few times on my link blog but this one deserves a post on here. It’s a feature-length documentary about the “Golden Triangle” within Thailand, Laos and Myanmar, the history how it became the center of the global drug trade and how it in many ways still is. A fascinating story of lost armies, hill tribes, gangsters and – of course, because it is OTR – food.
Very much worth the time.

In 1947, as independence loomed, #Burma’s prime minister-in-waiting, #AungSan, was assassinated. Was it his political rivals, the military, or the British?

“An officer – he must have been a new arrival, and a right clown – ran out in front of the company and shouted, with enthusiasm: ‘Men! The war in Europe is over!’”
—George MacDonald Fraser spent VE Day in 1945 waiting to attack a Japanese-held village in Burma – from his memoir QUARTERED SAFE OUT HERE:

🪖 #KriegohneSieger – der „ 💥 #WaronDrugs” der 🇺🇸 #USA
✍️ Text: 👩🎨 #DortheMarch
Das #Drogenproblem ist eine #Erfindung des 20. Jahrhunderts, an dem die #USA bis heute scheitern, sagt #Historikerin #HelenaBarop: „Bei dem Versuch, #Drogenimporte aus der #Türkei, #Frankreich, #Thailand, #Burma, #Laos und #Mexiko zu verhindern, verstrickte sich die #Supermacht zwischen 1950 und 1979 in einen zermürbenden globalen #Drogenkrieg.”
