What is disappearance? In short, it is a repressive tactic used by authoritarian states to terrorize the civilian population into submission.

While the term “the disappeared” emerges in the aftermath of authoritarianism in Guatemala (1966) and Operation Condor in South America (perhaps most famously General Pinochet and his reign of terror in Chilean, but also juntas across South America including in Argentina), it describes a tactic that has long been in use and continues to be used by authoritarian regimes across the world, so it’s a concept to be aware of and understand.

Disappearance is characterized by illegal abduction, secret detention centers, torture, death, and unofficial burial.


Disappearance was, in theory, a way to avoid responsibility. The state maintained plausible deniability while effectively terrorizing their citizens into submission. The message is clear, you could be next.

QOTD: Have you heard of disappearing?

Here's something interesting for everyone... A student in Austria at the University of Vienna is conducting a study for their Masters Thesis.

"My master thesis aims to understand the gap between registered accounts and active users. After a spike in registrations in 2022, the number of active users on Mastodon decreased, and this study aims to find out why."

Here's the link to her survey, and I'm sure she will greatly appreciate all the engagement she can get - especially if its coming directly from the source. It can be taken in English or German:

I wrote a lot of words I learnt reading this book (like for now 18 pages/9 sheets), I have to organise them for learning but I feel everything is only accessible through a Paywall now, are there still good apps? I never did paper cards or such, open to it but unsure how to proceed? (level estimated A2/B1, self learning)

@salubrium I learned from the Farnsworth method. Fast characters. Long spacing. Koch I’ve heard is good too.

STARTING LEARNING AT 15WPM NEVER LOWER, so no reading the dahs and dits. Only translating the “music” to the letters immediately. (Same thing with learning something like hiragana in Japanese, learn the direct translation not the intermediary.)

Also playing around in a morsechat app online is fun and helps too.

I think the biggest help was an actual zoom class with other hams.

Followed by a Morse code study app called Morse Mania free on Android and iPhone.

Received this super cute picture showing a study session using my free guide and Hebrew Alphabet Workbooks with the perfect tutor 🐈🐈‍⬛😹

Cats make great study buddies as their calming presence can create a comfortable and stress-free environment for focused work.

Taking short breaks to cuddle with your cat can provide mental refreshment and prevent burnout during study sessions. 🐈‍⬛📚

So grab yourself my workbooks, lessons, or courses and let the Pet Professors in your life cheer you on 🐶🐱❤️

The true teachers pet! 😹
