They'll need to check first if their mom's basement is still available, because who's going to hire them?

these ICE guys need to be made aware that they're not in the military, they can just quit

Yes, but our central bank head will lead the manning of the blockades during the Revolution.

in Canada they put the central bank head in charge of the country, in the United States they try to put the President in charge of monetary policy

Can state-building disrupt rather than stabilize society? Thrilled to have a new article in @apsrjournal.bsky.social w/ @mikealbertus.bsky.social showing that the expansion of state communication networks spurred rebellion for decades in France before the Revolution.

"a contract made in anticipation of divorce was considered morally repugnant. In 1940, a Michigan judge refused to uphold a prenup, emphasizing that marriage was “not merely a private contract between the parties.”

Define “Happy Acemoglu Day“ as the day citations to Daron Acemoglu’s papers for this year surpass your total citations for the previous year.

My Acemoglu day was January 4.

Last time I did dry January was in 2021. Look what happened.

I was planning doing dry January again and look what is happening. In just 3 days!

So, in order to preserve the world order, I will be drinking this January.

You are welcome.

FFS, the medical professor teaching young students at a university is pointing to a screen that is not even on.

This explains the state of our health system.

This article advocates for the “Faculty Merit Act” that would — get this — require all faculty applicants to submit their *SAT* scores. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Holy shirts that’s hilarious.
A screenshot of a National Review article by George Leef. The title is “Let’s Hire Professors Purely on Merit”. The first paragraph reads: the diversity media that has swept over American education for the last 50 years or so has had a align effect on the quality of professors. Many of those hired to fill quotas for certain groups are, to be blunt, not especially qualified. Moreover, such hiring violates the law against discrimination. What should we do?” It’s the usual thing about white men not being able to get jobs because women and minorities are given preference. Despite all evidence to the contrary.
