I’m so thankful for Korean parents who put in the effort to prepare Korean food at a school where I taught (and many others from other backgrounds). My life is richer for it, and for knowing them. Food is a powerful way to connect.

It’s based in Western education and the metrics we value. It’s useful, but not a good measure of innate intellectual capability in all conditions, and certainly not a measure of worth or value.

This is not the biggest problem with this, but it does show his ignorance: IQ tests are socially situated. They are not a good measure of innate intelligence, especially not across cultures. When people use IQ to brag or put down others, I take that as proof of their stupidity.

“You can’t solve our problems peacefully by the law, so unlawful violence is acceptable” is a pretty awful argument I keep running into in my conversations with conservative friends. It’s so exhausting.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention. The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.

Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

Ignoring for a moment that a person aught to be able to figure that out without AI, I am horrified by the idea of someone learning how to parent from a tool that convinced at least one young man to end his life.

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

Mau and Mephistopheles. The Archduke holding the young tiefling's chin maliciously but gently in hand, in front of a flaming cathedral window.

Book cover for Slyflourish "City of Arches." A chain devil is being summoned through a portal, to which a tentative and nervous party overlooks their bard's offering.

$Serlvarian The Essence Stealer. A red dragon corrupted by the power of a fallen star. The scales have turned purple and blue, the fire an ice cold beam, and wings fracturing into another dimension.$ A gentle giant slumbers on top of a forest waterfall. Awoken by the beautifully composed encore of the bard who has been practicing at their feet for years.
