Instagram is turning me into a crazy person who makes fun ice cubes!

Interesting perspective! The new barons…

Be sure to take a look at something interesting one of our professors did for his Principles of Micro classes!

The timing of this paper is perfect.

I have always admired Miami for its strong commitment to both high-quality scholarship and undergraduate education. This interesting paper really speaks to the mechanisms and explains why schools like mine really punch above their weight with respect to student outcomes.

👋 I'm Danielle, and I'm on the #econjobmarket this year! Let's start with a student describing her segregated school: "The school felt temporary. Built like a warehouse with aluminum siding . . . I had a slipshod education" The twist? The student is white, and her school is private. A JMP 🧵 -->

Very important initiative considering the government cant figure out the unemployment rate for October.

Re-upping this as job market season gets going! If you love teaching & working with undergrads, check out this position that my department is hiring this year 👇

Just a reminder to sign up for this webinar on IPUMS International on Wednesday!

Please send me your favorite independent news outlets. Repost! At this point, the only reason I have a Times subscription is because of the cooking app. Please send me your favorite cooking apps, too! (Mood is frustrated)

I finally have a hurricane named after me. 😼

Happy Caturday

Celebrated our new partnership with the Cleveland Clinic yesterday with a naming ceremony. 18 months in the making, it includes Miami’s BS in quantum computing- one of the first in the world. Very cool to see it!

It’s always great to see that the world supply of soy (or virtually any other commodity) is indeed perfectly elastic. Gotta say that this tariff brought in a heap of revenue. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/25/b...

Great write-up of new research by @riacton.bsky.social !

Very happy to see my review of the racial residential segregation literature with John Parman in the latest issue of Journal of Economic Literature @aeajournals.bsky.social www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...

Now’s a good time to share one of several recent @planetmoney.bsky.social episodes about the importance of Federal Reserve independence from partisan electoral politics. www.npr.org/2025/04/23/1...

It really is Ground Hog Day. My garden is… a little less big than it was yesterday…

This week we ‪(with @ajhollingsworth.bsky.social talk with @talgross.bsky.social on The Hidden Curriculum on productivity and how to improve our teaching and some ideas for new exercises for your class!

Such a great project! Congrats to this amazing team and to MU alum Margaret Layding for helping us develop it!

Wow fellow Ohioans- this will have a major impact.

Caturday on the coffee table. Just missing the coffee.

When my kids were younger, they asked why we call it “rolling up the windows” in the car….

Happy Caturday!

The recent disaster and loss of lives in Texas is so sad. But I’m reading that the cuts to weather personnel are related to a “decades-long effort to privatize weather information.” But I’m thinking that weather information is almost a quintessential public good? www.pbs.org/newshour/amp...

Happy Caturday. This animal has learned a new trick. 😱

Seen uptown and spot on!

Yet another prime example of how useful economic history is for modern economics. Excellent summary by Barry Eichengreen of how crypto can return us to the (not) glory days of wildcat banking. This Bill Will Return Us to an Era of Economic Chaos www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/o...

All the rain and I guess my walnut tree couldn’t hang on to its sloped perch. No damage to house. Firewood, anyone?

What is a group of woodpeckers called? Because I have one in my backyard. I am thinking a “hammer of woodpeckers” might work.

My daughter got me this for a Mother’s Day present and I love it!

Elegant Caturday.

Is there a name for the stress associated with putting a command hook on the wall?

A beautiful day to move my citrus from the grow light in the basement outside!

Caturday

Pope Olive Bread IX. @ajhollingsworth.bsky.social is Pope Olive Bread XII. Same lineage- must be related to the fact we had same diss advisor.

Your Pope name is the last thing you ate + the # of letters in your first name Pope Breakfast Hash IX which is amazing because that means 8 others know the glory of potatoes, onions, bell peppers, jalapeños, cheese, and over easy eggs

Rainy Caturday.

Happy Caturday!

Hi Bluesky! A scientist friend just joined and is interested in science starter packs. Any suggestions?
