I know they’re not from the same country even, but are we sure Ludwig Görransson and Daðy Freyr are not the same person?

I don’t understand what kind of life event would make me *not* want the oven to heat up as quick as possible and, hence, why is that “quick heat” button in the middle even necessary 🤷🏻‍♂️🤔

Singer 2011 has a table with the "most important issue" question across multiple CSES country surveys. It spans two pages. I asked Claude Code to turn it into a bar chart... Link to paper: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Good stuff right here by @dannychau.bsky.social
Maybe it's quibbling with semantics, but something about the integrity of our game doesn't sit quite right.
Because the game is the game. And the game is incredible. Thursday night served up one of the best opening week double-headers we've seen in a long time: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander emptying the tank in a double-overtime bout against an Indiana Pacers team that refused to have its season defined by its sidelined cornerstone; the timeless experience of watching Steph Curry's late-game heroics from 30-plus feet away from the hoop. Amid all the uncertainty, the basketball was very good. So, no, when we're talking about integrity, we're not talking about a game. It's not the integrity of basketball that is under siege, but the NBA as a platform supporting it.

Interestingly, voters who believe their preferred formateur (PM candidate) will lose behave similarly to those who are uncertain, acting in what we call "puncher's chance" mentality. Both groups display higher rates of strategic behaviour (shown here relying on 6 🇩🇪 election surveys) 3/4

Our cross-national analysis (@cses.bsky.social) shows: when there is uncertainty over which party will lead the next government, voters are more likely to vote for the two largest parties (left figure). This effect diminishes when partisan attachments are especially strong (right figure). 2/4

The Israeli #polisci association just issued a statement opposing the government's plan to continue the conquest of Gaza, calling for an immediate negotiation for a permanent ceasefire. Main points (my summary):

Or Tuttnauer @ortuttnauer.com · 28/07/2025
5 Israeli universit heads in a letter to PM Netanyahu calling him to ״to instruct the IDF [...] to intensify their efforts [...] to resolve the terrible famine in Gaza, which is causing immense suffering to innocent people, including children and infants.״ Full translated text in Alt
We, the presidents of five universities, appeal to you to instruct the IDF and other security forces to intensify their efforts, regardless of the heavy responsibility of Hamas and other actors, to resolve the terrible famine in Gaza, which is causing immense suffering to innocent people, including children and infants.
Together with a growing number of the country's residents, we are watching in horror the images coming from the Gaza Strip, including those of babies dying every day from hunger and disease. The release of the hostages and minimizing harm to our soldiers are paramount goals, but as a people who were victims of the terrible Holocaust in Europe, we also have a special duty to act with all means at our disposal to prevent and avoid cruel and indiscriminate harm to innocent men, women, and children.
We are appalled by statements made by ministers and members of the Knesset encouraging the deliberate destruction of the Gaza Strip and the expulsion of its civilian population. We expect a clear and unequivocal condemnation from you and from the government of these harsh statements, which are clearly an immoral call for acts that, according to senior legal experts in Israel and around the world, constitute war crimes and crimes against humanity. The deliberate destruction and the plan to create a “humanitarian city” express a loss of restraint and humanity from which we cannot recover, and cause irreparable damage.
we expect you to take action.

… we visited every time we were in Israel and he always seemed happy to see us, but equally happy to go back home (to the AC), which is a good thing. He coupled athleticism with longevity, and died at 14, tonight. He was always afraid of vets, so it’s good that he died in his sleep, on his couch ❤️

Bali wasn’t my 1st dog, but he was my children’s older brother. He was a superdog, beautiful and mega-athletic. He was a gentle giant, great with kids - family & strangers, and playful with other dogs. Life (the move to Germany) made it so he spent the last 7 years in another home…

In a draft book chapter I submitted yesterday, I find a really cool mediation effect: the effect of an opposition party's conflict w/ government on its electoral performance in next elections is (partially) mediated by the media's campaign coverage. 1/3 #polisky #parlisky
A mediation analysis diagram, showing the effect of a party's conflict rate on its next vote share, mediated through party negativity and salience in media coverage. The effect of conflict rate is partially mediated through salience, but not negativity
