More than one in five workers across Europe — 21.3% — are regularly shifted on Saturdays and Sundays, according to the latest Eurostat data.
And in some countries, the average is well above that, especially across the #Balkans and the #Mediterranean.
In Greece, a striking 41% of employees and self-employed workers are active on the weekend, 33% in #Bosnia-Herzegovina, and 32% #Malta, Cyprus and North Macedonia.
At the same time, the continent's north and east show much lower rates. In #Lithuania, only 4% of workers work on weekends, as do 7% in #Hungary and 7.5% in #Poland.
When it comes to employees only, Greece, #Cyprus, and #NorthMacedonia remain in the top spots with rates above 30%, followed by #Switzerland and Malta, just below at 29%.
On the self-employed/employers' front, #Greece again shows the highest rate with an astonishing 75%. The picture changes slightly in the lower spots, occupied here by #Belgium (66%) and #France (60%).
Working often on weekends doesn't necessarily mean working more overall. In Greece's case, however, the numbers are consistent with other #Eurostat data showing Greeks tend to work more hours than anyone else in the EU.

A new colleague, Alaka Oluwatobi, shared his decolonial essay with me. I share this interest, so I read it and wrote a blog post. The essay is linked there as well as in the first comment if you'd like to read it without my opinions.

I've generally been suspicious of free speech for a while, so I wrote an essay articulating why. We’ve all likely heard that the freedom to swing one’s fist ends at the tip of another’s nose. I can accept this without argument for this assertion. Your freedom TO violates my freedom FROM. These freedoms should cancel out.

"Stop patronising hijabi Muslim women by telling them to consider how other Muslim women may find hijab oppressive, as if we have not already done so.
We know how religion is weaponised in places where Muslims are the majority. We also know how your governments weaponise anti-Muslim rhetoric globally, and we understand where Islam stands in the global order.
Who are you trying to fool here?
Treating Muslim subjects as if we are insulated from that order and reminding us that “contradictions exist” is a projection of the privilege enjoyed by those who benefit from that system."

I've shared my thoughts on Alasdair MacIntyre before, but a follower asked me to comment on a Philosophize This! segment on a couple of books he published after After Virtue, and so I did.
I share a link to the video content as well as a NotebookLM podcast summary.

The radical left needs to embrace #anticapitalist liberalism to provide an alternative to #capitalist liberalism and illiberal #anticapitalism. #Liberalism is great once the capitalist tendencies are removed. I have found that most critiques of liberalism from #leftists are really critiques of #capitalism

Freedom of movement and freedom to stay
Entitlement and the Urge to Destroy* " As the habitable areas of the Earth shrink under climate change and as many governments around the world adopt measures to deport migrants and refugees, it is time to re-examine our traditional notion of freedom. In the Western tradition, freedom is generally understood in relation to space: it is the freedom of movement, and the freedom not to be obstructed in one's movement by the state or anyone else. In The Freedom to Stay, von Redecker puts forward the radical argument that we should think of freedom in temporal rather than spatial terms."

TL;DR - voting for who we hand The People's Power to is what got us here & after they get rid of us, they'll come for you next. So unless you wanna fight these mfers alone, recognize what's happening and get active. And to reiterate, voting isn't action.
All Power to The People!
---
I'll take responsibility for my part in this due to my refusing to vote when you're ready to admit that doing nothing but voting is what got us here.
I'm so tired of watching people act horrified who would have excused this attack on Iran if it had been Kamala, just how y'all excused her lack of action for Palestine. And we all know she would have done the same thing, she would've just been more tactful about it. If not Iran it would have been another of NetAndYahoo's targets (I refuse to look that monster's name up)
We're the axis powers now, and have been since WWII ended. The irony is disgustingly thick, a Jewish state and the alleged bastions of freedom doing the thing we supposedly destroyed. Cartoon villain shit.
---
Y'all may have the luxury of waiting for things to get more fucked before you decide to (literally) fight back, but many of us don't. We'll all be dead by the time you mfers decide it's bad enough, so have fun living for as long as these sick fucks let you. You're next, just for voting for their opposition.
The only reason you're not a target now is because you are quite literally the least threatening people on the planet. Thanks for being our cover for so long, I guess. They thought we were quivering rich liberals for a long time, and it made them easy to catch off guard.
#downwithempire & #downwithcapitalism whether it's red, blue, pink, or any other color. This isn't sports, quit rooting for teams you're not on!

Given the choice, Centrists always side with fascists or the right. #LifeLesson You can't trust centrists. Example:
"the leader of the ailing Liberals, Simona Mohamsson, shocked her party last month by abruptly switching positions on SD, announcing that her party would accept being in government with a far-right force she had previously denounced as racist. She also held a press conference alongside Åkesson in which they hugged."

Why People Killed By Aerial Bombing Don't Matter
The West’s monopoly over this most lethal violence has conditioned how we see the victims of bombs – if we see them at all.
