Karina Michelin stated that a large-scale fire destroyed laboratories and research at the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE) on the night of Wednesday, October 7. According to her, the rector Alfredo Macedo Gomes estimated the damages at R$ 100 million. The author said that, before the conclusion of an investigation into the origin of the flames, the case was already politically associated with supporters of Flávio Bolsonaro. She linked this association to the circulation of anonymous screenshots with threats attributed to Bolsonaro supporters, released by elected federal deputy Jones Manoel from the PSOL party. According to Michelin, he announced that he would request investigations from the Federal Police and the Federal Public Ministry, but there was no confirmed identification of the authors, public authentication of the conversations, or evidence presented that linked the threats to the fire. Michelin also mentioned protests organized by university entities at UFPE on October 6, following the results of the first round, which, according to her, consolidated the advance of the right in Congress. The author questioned who produced and published the screenshots and why political accusations emerged before the conclusion of the investigations. She argued that the hypothesis of a "false flag" should be investigated, including the possible fabrication of political accusations, and stated that using anonymous messages to politically condemn someone without proof could escalate tensions in the country before the second round. #IncêndioUFPE #LiberdadeAcadêmica #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)

Eu não gosto que ninguém seja hostilizado, nem impedido de falar. Mas a manifestação na palestra de Haddad precisa ser vista com outros olhos. Eu sou professora na USP, há mais de 20 anos, nunca falei sobre política ou eleição na sala de aula. Se quiser concorrer em outubro, preciso me afastar de todas as minhas atividades docentes por 90 dias. Não posso colocar os pés na Faculdade, sob pena de ficar inelegível. No entanto, dia sim, dia também, há quadros do PT e do PSOL dando palestras, aulas especiais, fazendo manifestações, em TODAS as unidades, de TODAS as Faculdades públicas. Isso não é justo! Nem bancas de mestrado e doutoramento, eu posso fazer nesse período! Eles fazem campanha aberta! Neste caso, a manifestação do MBL foi justa. Diretores e Reitores precisam garantir que a lei eleitoral seja observada também pela esquerda! #Educação #Justiça #Política

Pessoal, vamos falar sobre a Gláucia? Ela é uma Swiftie bióloga, mestra e doutoranda que criou o “Método Taylor Swift”, ensinando botânica com os clipes da Taylor, na pandemia e publicou em 2025. A Universidade Miguel Hernández, da Espanha, publicou um artigo atribuindo essa metodologia a um grupo de alunos da instituição. Ela entrou em contato para tentar resolver amigavelmente e não teve resposta. O próprio reitor da UFRN foi IGNORADO quando mandou uma carta ao reitor da UMH sobre o caso. Ela vai recorrer à justiça e precisa de ajuda financeira. Se você puder, considere contribuir um pouco para essa luta, por favor. 🤍 O Pix é: [email protected] Glaucia Silva, Santander. #JusticeForGlaucia #Educação #TaylorSwift
