The #ECHR is an international court.
Here is an actual forrin court. Sits in Parliament Square and overturns the verdicts of other countries' jurisdictions. 🤷♂️

Reading Collier's Clavis Universalis …a demonstration of the non-existence of the external world (1713) Hamilton notes that only two positions are actually tenable - Absolute Idealism or Natural Realism.
Correct, says his student Ferrier. And that's where you're going wrong.
@matthewbdexter It's surreal. Grave reports, often with hellish imagery, e.g. from Ukraine or Gaza, become ludic with winks from p*rn girlies about body parts. 😕
Freaky #6N campaign for 🏴 this year.
- crazy TMO decision against France
- mysteriously absent in the 2nd-half of 3 out of 5 games
- an easy win against England..and a weird loss against Italy
- and then a 7 point gift to Ireland before losing by 4 points😵💫#6Nations #IREvSCO
1st-wave existentialism would have been more enduring had it been carried by Beauvoir instead of Sartre, who led it all the way back to the 17th c.

1. The most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible.
2. The more the universe seems comprehensible, the
more it also seems pointless.
Imagine you're a modern academic who published one solitary article (when, say, you were a teaching assistant), that gifts you a glittering worldwide reputation, and you dine out on it for decades. It sets the agenda even after you die, until one day someone unfashionable turns…
🤔 That's three identical 2nd-half collapses this year. And there's still a game left to play 😬
It's the leadership. They need to read what's actually going on as it happens, and respond, instead of hanging on until it's too late. Still, well done Italy 👍🇮🇹

Today's fun class on Heidegger -
The Nothing, Das Nichts, is a transcendental condition for individuation. Counter-intuitively, it is this Nothing that allows for the possibility that the world - including ourselves - be not reduced to mere disposable reserve, annihilated...
@redhistorian 👍 great thread. Political economy as a subject emerged from Dugald Stewart's moral philosophy class at Edinburgh university in 1798.
Atm, it works to exclude the vast majority of citizens from politics, because its jargon is arcane and privileged (and always contested besides).
