Unpaid caregivers are a growing population. Whom do we hold responsible? @um-src.bsky.social and @um-psc.bsky.social researchers find expectations fall mainly upon spouses and family. #PAA2026

But first, some baseball at Busch Stadium! While baseball may not have much in common with demography, enjoyers of both do a lot of math! Sabermetrics, or baseball-specific statistical analysis, is something us population scientists can get behind - @janetjwang.bsky.social

Do you teach #rstats? Do your students complain about how lame and old-fashioned dplyr is? Don't worry: I have the solution for you: github.com/hadley/genzp.... genzplyr is dplyr, but bussin fr fr no cap.

Watched this last night and I have to say this may be one of the more overtly sociological movies of the summer. Assortative mating, relational work, and more. Demographers and economic sociologists rejoice!
