Like every other journalist with too much time on their hands, I'm launching a newsletter.

It combines two things I'm into: #DataJournalism and Eastern Europe. It's an area where a lot of excellent work has been done by orgs like Texty and Kloop, but I think there's room for me in there as well.

I plan on writing something at least once a month, and you can sign up now to ensure you get the first article in a few days!

And now the upcoming revolution in the world of "Melancholy of resistance" becomes clear, I'm excited! Krasznahorkai so far strips everyone out of their dignity. Everyone is petty, mean and disgusting. Well, maybe almost. I know he introduced some more noble characters in "Satantango" though, so I wonder who'll be more dignified in "Melancholy".

#LaszloKrasznahorkai #TheMelancholyofresistance #EasternEurope

I'm reading Krasznahorkai's "The melancholy of resistance". It's so fun so far, pretty lighthearted despite playing with negative emotions. I needed something more distanced, less serious. The atmosphere of the small town is nice too. I'm curious about its inhabitants. Valushka seems so relatable. Too bad I'm tired and may fall asleep soon.

🇺🇦 winery @artwinery, famous for its sparkling wines, releases a new wine brand named "Victory."

Artwinery production is the largest in #EasternEurope, where sparkling wines are created according to the classic #Champenoise methods.

Friend of mine started blog that explains #easterneurope to westerners. It makes for nice read if you look to understand a bit more about the region, and is also good thing to send to someone repeating bullshit that Musk or Fox spouts, about how #Ukraine is artificial country.

#FID #Osteuropa #EasternEurope #osmikon #histodons @histodons, @historikerinnen,

One of the very best people to follow to understand culture, history and events in #EasternEurope is Sean Guillory of the university of #Pittsburgh. He's going to change the name of his SRB podcast soon (Sean's Russia Blog) but I've always thought the no-frills nature of the name was a sign that when you listen to it you get pure nerdy knowledge with no image, branding or nonsense https://srbpodcast.org/

#introduction I’m still accustoming myself to Mastodon and seeking out communities of other #professors, #scholars, and #academics writing #essays, #OpEds, or #Nonfiction for general audiences. I’m including here a link to a recent #profile of me and my #ethnographic work in #EasternEurope.

Just moved to the journa.host network, hopefully to join an inspiring and respectful community of journalists who want to share their stories and insights without capricious algorithms and hateful trolling.

I'll be mostly tooting about #CentralEurope and #EasternEurope, writing a lot about politics in #Czechia and #Poland, but also #Hungary and #Slovakia.

Following closely #Russia's renewed invasion of #Ukraine and events in both countries, as well as in #Belarus.

Things I am looking for in the archives

Letter from 1977: the Deputy Secretary of Women's Issues and Wellbeing (Zimbabwe African People's Union) to the Hungarian women's council: urging their "old friends" to send qualified teachers "to enable us to educate our young women."

They attached a list of subjects to cover, including community leadership, eldercare, and household budget (planning).
