1)You may remember the articles criticizing liberal students for their hesitancy to make friends with conservative students—alleging that they were less open-minded than their conservative counterparts.

Unzählige internationale Organisationen und Zeug:innen dokumentieren das unbeschreibliche Leid in Gaza, aber in Deutschland denkt man sich zuhause vorm Bildschirm „die sehen gar nicht so mager aus“. An welchem Grad an Entmenschlichung sind wir angekommen, wenn so etwas Teil des Diskurses ist

Zumindest auf den Bildern im Netz wirken die Palästinenser ja nicht besonders mager. Gab es da denn jetzt eine Hungersnot oder war das gelogen?

Very glad to see this published, congratulations! It's been in the works for a couple of years, right?

I do think it's underdiscussed just how much climate denial today is performative white masculinity

a lot of people want to read Trump and team's fossil fuel obsession as being about *money* but while there is of course a corruption element, it's primarily pure culture war stuff. even many of the big fossil fuel companies want to get into renewables because it's so obviously the future.

Coal production and employment in Wyoming has steadily been declining, much like the rest of the industry in the US.

Coal is a dead industry.

Most "classics" are boring as fuck to a modern reader in no small part because the context of the story is not understood by them and so many of the allusions and "inside jokes" known to then-contemporary readers have been lost in time and in translation

That West German motherhood penalty 🥲

New article out in @sociusjournal.bsky.social.

It shows how closely linked motherhood penalties 🤰📉 and gender inequalities 👨‍💼💰👩‍💼 are by studying many local labour markets.

“if you comply, there’s nothing to fear” is perhaps not the most comforting messaging coming from a German politician

Autoritäre Verhältnisse sind auch solche, in denen jemand im Social-Media-Team denkt: Das ist doch ein super Zitat, damit sollte die Sache für alle vernünftigen Menschen vom Tisch sein.

I also use the Thames model for my papers - a steady but slowly increasing amount of effort untuil I am halfway through, where my work experiences drastic highs and lows, until completion, where they merge in the great literature sea.

Teaching a fun science & critical thinking course this semester.

Trying out THAMES as a handy mnemonic for what to look for in evaluating science papers & such (obvs not all are as relevant for every paper)...
THAMES mnemonic for reading science:

T
Theory
•What BIG IDEA is the focus?

H
Hypothesis
•What SMALLER IDEA is actually getting tested?

A
Assumptions &
Alternatives
•What needs to be true to connect T:H?
•What else could explain results/predictions?

M
Methods:
Measures & Manipulations
•Were methodological tools validated?
•Evidence that we’re measuring/manip what’s claimed?

E
Evidence &
Ethics
•Are claims calibrated to EVIDENCE? Is EVIDENCE appropriate?
•ETHICALLY sound in practice/intent/implication/application?

S
Sampling
Statistical Model
•Who was studied? Who are claims about?
•Do stat results match verbal ideas?

I read and write, I explore and I question, I design and script and analyse, I interpret and communicate. I do this to train my mind in the hopes of one day generating new knowledge. New knowledge that might even be useful, and that no algorithm can yet be trained on.

Y'all. I just got ChatGPT to do everything in R for this manuscript. I mean EVERYTHING. And it's all legit and reproducible. I'm shook.

How are we mentoring our trainees in statistics now? Who needs to learn coding in R line by line, and who doesn't?

In other news: Sylvan Adams is no longer partner to Factor & Premier Tech, meaning for the 2026 season Israel-Premier Tech will no longer be the team name. New name has yet to be announced, but might just be Premier Tech as they've been racing or Factor-Premier Tech, kinda like Lidl-Trek

Yo no, you know what? Hell yeah to Factor bikes saying "Fuck you, we're not Boeing" to IPT
