Día triste para Mendoza. Se luchó pero no se pudo contra este gobierno vende todo.

I am so ashamed of my country.

In Argentina, we have a horrible past related to the use of torture in the fight of an alleged "internal enemy." Sounds familiar? Coincidentally (or not), this bloody past also involves the 2 other countries voting against this resolution.

A movie that takes place where you're from

It's not really taking place there, but 7 years in Tibet was filmed in Mendoza. ❤️

Chancellor of Germany Merz flew 21 hs in a private jet to stay 20 hs at the COP30. Only to then insult the country hosting the event in the most colonialist way possible.

Lula had the perfect answer: You wished you could experience such a wonderful country.

It’s telling that in academia, scientists who address racism, misogyny, or colonial legacies are increasingly labeled as “activists.” When evidence-based critique gets framed as “cancel culture,” you know the narrative has shifted.

No quiero decir nada, pero...
The image shows a venn diagram that says (in Spanish) that the "science" has an intersection with "Gossip" that includes "hypothesis, observation, discussion and conclusion"

I also have to add a photo of my latest asado, more specifically, an 🇦🇷 matambre salted with lava salt coming from Island. A gift from @theresahenke.bsky.social in Germany, that came all the way to Mendoza 🥰

My Halloween costume: working academic mom.

Because every day feels like a horror story in this system.

#HappyHalloween ☠️
Photo of myself "desguised" as a super tired mom with makeup to portray tired eyes, dressed with a breastfeeding bra and a dressing gown. I'm also going a baby toy and my computer. Though this last one is not super visible.

Llevo a San Martin a votar ❤️

A selfie just before I went to vote. My T-shirt portrays one of the most important freedom fighters in Latinoamerica, Jose de San Martin. I'm also wearing a machete chain, and my bag is a photo of Palestinian tatreez

Our office puzzle is coming together ❤️. Also, my office mate got one paper accepted, and I got my grant extended. All in all, a good week 🙌

My grant was extended for another year! I'm so happy to stay in the wonderful Interactio Lab led by @dpvazquez.bsky.social for another year. It's a real privilege to keep working in Argentina with such an inspiring group of people. 💚

Btw this is what I see on my office's doorstep 😍

Seriously, wtf is this??

I repeat: I'm not American, nor do I live in this US, but I'm still getting this propaganda on my feed.
