Morehouse College transferred every penny of debt they held in collections to the Debt Collective, amounting to $10M for 2800 students. Instead of collecting on it, we canceled it all completely. This is a no strings attached gift. www.businessinsider.com/student-loan...

This winter break has primarily been me alternating between BG3 and making a new resume and cv from scratch in indesign and it’s not very hard to say which one has been more enjoyable

Home for the holidays and my hometown has changed the speed limits on a number of roads with varying degrees of new signage. I read the ordinance change months ago but actually driving on the roads now is so disconcerting, even if I agree with the safety purposes of the new lower limits

"In the decade from 2010 to 2020, humanity witnessed an explosion of mass protests that seemed to herald profound changes...we can now see how the uprisings preceded – if not necessarily caused – outcomes that were very different from the goals of the protesters." www.theguardian.com/world/2023/o...

The mass protest decade: why did the street movements of the 2010s fail?
The long read: From Brazil to Egypt, Turkey to Hong Kong, the 2010s saw a series of huge public uprisings. Yet many of them led to the opposite of what they asked for. I spoke to more than 200 partici...

Social scientists need to talk more abt power. We who are obsessed w/ the psychology of human behavior must more frequently contend with the workings of power and status and hierarchy in our work. Far too often, these concepts are absent from our theorizing, and that’s too bad. Let’s do better.
