Hi! Since others are talking about my book, thought I'd share a little about it. The book is a love letter to women everywhere wondering why their time just isn't adding up. It turns out, it's not you! We are getting massively squeezed by structural changes! 🧵

‘A landmark report, The Right to Power — Keeping First Nations' communities connected on prepayment, found nearly 9,000 households were impacted by frequent disconnections that are "undermining health, wellbeing and economic participation".’

Constant power denied to 65,000 customers forced to pay upfront or disconnect
Communities on prepaid power meters face regular disconnections amid 40 degree-plus heat, meaning no aircon, food rotting in the fridge and long, hot walks to get reconnected.

Headline: a major contributor to the 50-year decline in U.S. male labor force participation is changes in men's beliefs about returns to work, shaped by lifetime experiences of aggregate male labor markets.

This will make the academic job market basically non-existent for non-US citizens. And job ads in Europe are down too. This will be a tough year to be on the market for many people. I encourage everyone to keep their eyes open for jobs posted in non-traditional channels.
Two new colleagues fortunately had applied shortly before and received h1b. But university now apparently saying for new searches to only consider people with existing work permits/citizenship

This is why one should follow the dictionary account
‘Booty’ and ‘butt’ are synonyms.

‘Call’ and ‘dial’ are synonyms.

But, a ‘booty call’ and a ‘butt dial’ are VERY different things.
