“Taking to actual people is still worthwhile unless you intend to bludgeon them into compliance” is great advice for economists and the way they imagine human behavior is explained in the data. Unfortunately, most would prefer to bludgeon people into compliance with their models. And they LOVE AI.

This was a truly impactful realization for me. In the health communication literature, there's "disparate impact frames" which are effective if the (majoritarian) audience actually cares about adverse outcomes affecting people who don't look like them. We saw that this was not the case.

I never had the chance to meet Dr. Pacheco-Vega in person but he was always so kind and thoughtful. His blogs on productivity and scholarship were required reading for me at a time when I was trying to figure out my next steps. Condolences to his family and friends and may his memory be a blessing.

The delta between what Biden did and how much anger he got for it and the absolute crickets Trump has gotten for making the student loan landscape *magnitudes worse than it was before* is absolutely one of the most enraging things about this entirely enraging era.

people thought Judith Butler was exaggerating before but she's been proven right, i think

As a fascist trend, the anti-gender movement supports ever strengthening forms of authoritarianism. Its tactics encourage state powers to intervene in university programs, to censor art and television programming, to forbid trans people their legal rights, to ban LGBTQI people from public spaces, to undermine reproductive freedom and the struggle against violence directed at women, children, and LGBTQI people. It threatens violence against those, including migrants, who have become cast as demonic forces and whose suppression or expulsion promises to restore a national order under duress.

That is why it makes no sense for “gender critical” feminists to ally with reactionary powers in targeting trans, non-binary, and genderqueer people. Let’s all get truly critical now, for this is no time for any of the targets of this movement to be turning against one another. The time for anti-fascist solidarity is now.

Most (but not all) Black economists come to economics with a worldview that is outside of the mainstream of the profession. This typically includes insights from sociology since inequality, identity, and networks are areas with a longer history there. For an introduction to this, see the 🧵 below 👇

An important part of racial segregation in public accommodations (that economists and economic historians regularly miss) is that it was NOT about racial animus. It’s about dehumanization and debasement. It’s using the public sphere to tell people that they are is not fit to walk the Earth.

I think not trying every single confederate for treason was a huge mistake. Grant’s decision to parole all of the insurgents at Appomattox—setting the stage of minimizing insurgency, insurrection, and treason—has done us no favors.

I'm utterly fed up at this point. Anyone who talks about increases in pregnancy-related mortality post-2019 and doesn't talk about COVID is committing research and policy malpractice. It's frustrating to work in this space and see people focused on their pet interventions vs. saving lives.
