  6. Slavoj Žižek | If You Want Peace, Prepare Europe

    What can Europe still represent in the disorder of the present? And what if its political fragility contains a resource that has yet to be named?

    On 25 March 2026, for the launch of Europa2057 at the Sala della Protomoteca in Campidoglio, philosopher Slavoj Žižek, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Sociology and Philosophy at the University of Ljubljana, brings a radical question to the centre: what can Europe still represent in the disorder of the present?

    Between the return of war and the crisis of democracies, Europe appears fragile, contradictory, often unable to recognise its own political force. For Žižek, it is precisely in this fragility that the possibility of rethinking its role opens up.

    Europe still has the possibility of building a different idea of freedom and coexistence: a space defined by what it makes possible, rather than by the borders it defends.

    What does it mean to stake on Europe today as a political project still open?

  20. What is it with the f’ing Republicans in this country?

    #Freedom is for the #Elites and #Billionaires, not for us 🤔😡

    A state that enshrined abortion into its constitution is now at risk of losing it

    #Missouri’s constitutional right to an abortion is on the verge of disappearing, again.

    It’s a threat that loomed over Tiffany early on a recent September morning, when she drove into Gladstone, just north of #Kansas City, for her #abortion

  24. The #Trump admin will now AUTO ENROLL children under 18 into "Trump accounts" since less than 10% of the potential amount have enrolled (~7 million out of 73 million).

    So they'll get their numbers up like they want, whether parents want it or not.

  28. I had a realization today while waiting for my coffee. I was standing there, scrolling through my phone like everyone else, and I felt this sudden, overwhelming wave of relief that I am, for all intents and purposes, a background character in 99.9% of the world's lives.

    We spend so much time online, especially here, in the fediverse, crafting a "presence." We curate our bios, we worry about our instance's vibe, we debate the ethics of our server choices. We are constantly performing citizenship in a digital town square. And I love it here. It feels more real than the corporate algorithmic feeds.

    But there is a profound peace in realizing that the barista doesn't care about my last boost. The person walking their dog doesn't know my stance on database migrations. To them, I'm just someone in a slightly wrinkled tshirt waiting for a latte.

    I think we need to romanticize being ordinary more. Not in a "give up" way, but in a "you are free" way. You don't have to be a thought leader. You don't have to have a brand.

    You can just be a person who likes coffee and has a weird amount of knowledge about 90s synthesizers. The pressure to be "seen" is a trap. The joy of being "unseen" is a superpower. I hope you all get to be a background character in someone's day today. It is lovely here ❤️

    👀 Quando scoprono che non vuoi raccontare a tutti:
    dove vivi,
    cosa compri,
    cosa mangi,
    con chi parli,
    cosa pensi…

    “Ma perché vuoi nasconderti?” 😂

    No.
    Semplicemente, non è affar vostro. 😎

    Privacy non significa avere qualcosa da nascondere
    Significa avere qualcosa da proteggere, tutelare

    E Dash lo sa💙

  39. A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

    An old English judge once said: “Necessitous men are not free men.” Liberty requires opportunity to make a living — a living decent according to the standard of the time, a living which gives man not only enough to live by, but something to live for.

    Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882–1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman; US President (1933–45)
    Speech (1936-06-27), Acceptance for Renomination for President, Democratic National Convention, Philadelphia
