It was once a crime to teach slaves to read. People fear equity when they're afraid to compete, justice when they know they're in the wrong.

Happy five year anniversary of pointing out that men cause pregnancy and could easily prevent abortion by ejaculating responsibly (but they choose not to) to all who celebrate.

I’m a mother of six, and a Mormon. I have a good understanding of arguments surrounding abortion, religious and otherwise. I've been listening to men grandstand about women's reproductive rights, and I'm convinced men actually have zero interest in stopping abortion. Here's why…



My friends are posting photos of their kids' first days of school and they are all excited goofballs and I love these photos so much. May we all be starting our Septembers with such joy and eagerness for the new things coming up!

a friendly reminder: don’t let them steal your wonder.


I just realized something I thought was some sort of phishing spam is actually a newsletter from some company where I applied for a job (that I never heard back about) a gazillion years ago. *headdesk*

I wish it didn't need to be said, but please don't use Chat GPT TO analyse your qualitative data. You most likely don't have this approval, or approval from participants to share the data on there. #QualitativeResearch #AI #Ethics


I once made a client (not publishing though, not sure how it works there) change this in my contract (and in how they added me to their system) but I shouldn't have had to.

Dear Publishers: Paying an author through an e-payment system is fine. Deducting fees for said system from the author's money is not. If, by the contract, I was supposed to get $500 but I only get $475 because of fees ... I did not get paid my contracted fee.

How about making this man and his approach to life go viral, instead of 45- yr-old tech billionaires spending $2 million a year to reclaim the organs and physical attributes of an 18-yr-old.

Over the years, Bobby Horne, a 6'5" security guard, often pulled over to help people whose cars had broken down. He did it again on the elevated spur btwn I-95 and Baltimore. Two other cars crashed, sending him over the barrier into the waters below. Hero: thebaltimorebanner.com/community/loca…

Neighborhood management and home security apps in India are collecting data from domestic workers and monitoring their movements during work hours, often without their knowledge. Tanya Maheshwari and Sureet Singh report from Delhi — restofworld.org/2023/home-moni…

What NOT to do in election reporting. Providing accurate information is one aspect of good reporting. But especially around elections, good journalism MUST provide context and connect experts and explainers to their audiences. The alternative is to become conspiracy fodder.

Such gems in the replies!

SEEKING ADVICE: How would you a project manage a team of experienced researchers versus a team of researchers with very drastically different years of experience? What factors do you consider? What strategies do you use? Management is so 🫠 Just let me nerd out in peace 😩



What kind of person asks someone "Why not?" when they say do not want a DNR?!?!

Hospital employee: “Do you have a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate order)? Me: “No.” Employee: “Do you want one?” Me: “No.” Employee: “Why not?” Me: “I want to be resuscitated.” A DNR is a personal decision. Extensive questioning about it is coercive and harassment.

Consider how the service or process you're designing could be weaponized. Or, at the very least, the ways in which it structurally supports outcomes in conflict with the purpose, or makes it harder to do the right thing. Consider the consequences when it doesn't go smoothly.

Up to 2.1 million in Medicaid disenrolled as of yesterday with most states reporting large share of procedural denials. Absolutely terrible. And most big states still to come.
