Guess whose ugly mug is gonna be in the Sept/Oct issue of Foreign Affairs. Here I'm bragging about @setonhall.bsky.social's new Masters program. www.foreignaffairs.com/sponsored/gr...

My undergrads wrote a short survey about the Iran war. It's short, only 3 min. They're trying to get responses ASAP. Could you take it real quick, and maybe pass it to others? Works on PC and smartphone. All perspectives welcome. Here's the link: shu.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Any PhDs (maybe ABDs) out here in the NJ-NYC area who'd be interested in teaching a (once a week) masters level course in international security in the spring semester? We're a 30min train ride from Penn Station NY. Reach out if you have someone in mind (including yourself)!

I am spending my sabbatical year working on Cory Booker's foreign policy team. What he pulled off with his 25-hr speech was extraordinary. I feel proud and incredibly privileged to have contributed. Here's a bit of the national security section my team worked on: youtu.be/GnKDC5xzAi0?...

New publication! @reyhuang.bsky.social and I ask a tough ethical question of ourselves and conflict scholars: Are we marketing rebellion? A few years ago, we discovered we both were grappling with this question. doi.org/10.1080/1467... 1/8

Are we marketing rebellion?

Is studying civil war contributing to civil war? Rebel groups often expend significant resources building up international support and legitimacy for their cause. At the same time, much of conflict...

Initial 2 reactions. Good: Wow, an AI that has read my syllabus and all my slides/readings will probably give better answers to my students than rando internet AIs at 3am. Evil: Wow, a lot of people think this AI could replace TAs. I guess we finally have a solution to the overproduction of PhDs.

one silver lining to trump winning a popular vote victory is it might actually persuade republicans that they don't have to dump free and fair elections to win (the silver in this lining is dull and very tarnished)

I'm shy on Twitter, and not too popular, but I've been here since 2009. I loved it here. But I just don't anymore. The ads are ghastly, my fave posters are buried in algorithmic garbage, and most the good ones don't post anymore either. I'm moving on. I'll still be over at 🦋

3 normy siblings spontaneously texted me today: - "Blown away...seems like a genuine person." - "Gave a B- speech...in the context of her-or-trump she sounds pretty good." - "She doesn't seem like a libtard." In this clan, this is really quite significant. #DNC2024CHICAGO

In the last 4 yrs, this woman has - left an abusive marriage - left an abusive religion - raised/supported 4 boys - started a new career and - finished her bachelor's! She seized control of her life. I'm so amazed by my big sis Jessica for her exceptional grit and optimism!
