Can we have the body of the letter in ALT text?

Here, an effect that persists after 500 years. ideas.repec.org/a/tpr/restat...

Yep. There's research on this: the numbers don't capture the stories, but the fact of a measurable effect should capture our attention. ideas.repec.org/a/aea/aejpol...

@toley.bsky.social thank you for this. Serving smiles.

I enjoyed how much the writer appears to have enjoyed writing this article. It's a delight.

This is true of so many Israelis in academia. Ariel Rubinstein likes to think of himself as an economist who hates economics. Dan Ariely is a psychologist but calls himself a behavioural economist. They must either like colonising other disciplines or hate that they failed at the one they chose.

The Guardian names every Israeli who is being returned and doesn't even manage a number for the Palestineans who have been released. And that's the national UK newspaper that you would expect to be most inclusive towards the Palestineans.

My most frequently referenced articles are that one, an intro to @katemanne.bsky.social's work on himpathy www.jezebel.com/philosopher-...

Doctors who tell someone in their 70s with plenty of money to pay for private care that 'at your age we don't bother to treat that' can do one.

Because guess where that ends up? It ends up with grandmothers agreeing that their grandkids' autism diagnosis is due to vaccines.

This is what I come up against all the time. Validating my friend's lifetime of not-great medical care while still advocating for life-changing public health innovations like vaccinations.

What's worse is the **** age discrimination in medical care.

Sounds like they're targetting a similar (young, female) demographic to NXIVM.

For me it's depressing how few people are at all aware of extremist online influencers, and the dark money that astroturfs their operations.

Can’t find the exact clip I want but The Hollowmen from Australia was always good at capturing generations completely missing each other’s vibes. youtube.com/shorts/2xc1D...

I think it goes hard on ‘good immigrant’ logic but once you’re good enough you’re no longer an immigrant, you’re ‘a proper Australian’, hence all immigrant stereotypes are negative.

Thanks for the thread. I left and would find it hard to go back. I think it’s not the only country with a racism problem, but as your last example demonstrates, there’s not much exposure within Australia to experiences that dislodge racist stereotypes, or show them up for how disgusting they are.

An explanation that made sense to me is that brands use Black models to prevent white supremacist groups from adopting their clothing as a uniform. Because it reduces the reach of your brand if it becomes associated with, for example, Reform.

That was a life-changing book for me. I'm so grateful for everything Ehrenreich did & wrote.

Kat this was so good! I’ve already listened to it AND watched it (second time was so that my partner could appreciate it too). I really appreciate your insight on this topic.

Kat Tenbarge was also fantastic on Matt Bernstein’s A Bit Fruity. I am a huge Kat Tenbarge fan. overcast.fm/+ABCGORwbrDw

Can you say more about who called you out and how they did it? I'd love to know what worked for you.

Public littering in Israel is extreme in my experience. The Yarkon Park on Saturday evening is like an open garbage pile. Maybe Rome is worse because the rubbish collectors have been on strike for a year, but I've found Europe to be much cleaner.

In my experience, Bnei Brak is a step change from other nearby neighbourhoods, but I also have a different experience of the opening post that "This is some odd troping (and just anti-semitism) about israel. it is (at least on streetview) notably cleaner than much of europe and NA."

Emails that could have been a poll.
WhatsApps that could have been an online form.
