The education gradient in childcare time has narrowed but these results suggest that college educated parents have increased $$ investments to help ensure class reproduction

Like, if you want to find hypocrisies in public beliefs about gun ownership and authoritarianism, how about the fact that people and organizations that justified arming the citizenry because of authoritarianism have fuck-all to say once authoritarianism has actually arrived?

Everyone in the White House involved in any way with that vile, sickening racist Trump post must be fired immediately: everyone in the communications department, everyone in the press office, every deputy chief of staff, everyone involved up and down the line. Not one more tax dollar for this filth.

Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos and publisher Will Lewis “are embarking on the latest step of their plan to kill everything that makes the paper special,” Ashley Parker writes.

anyway i know how many of you hate that i’m so vocal about this and think it makes me a naive shitlib or whatever. but again, i think the best thing you could do for yourself here is to get involved in election administration where you live.

I hate that Dems are just conceding the whole premise of mass deportation and instead dithering about techniques and the impact on US citizens

It turns out that democracy doesn’t die in darkness at all—it succumbs to repeated group muggings at the hands of the monied power elite. https://bit.ly/3ZPQUKt

Bunch of uni admins are thanking their lucky stars today that their faculty's research was beneath Epstein's notice. Still, I hope JE prompts all universities to reflect on how to fund research w/o compromising values, particularly as federal & state funding shrinks and donors play larger role.

This is well-done www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1dy...

Exactly. There's must-pass funding legislation going through Congress right now. If Tillis et al. aren't willing to put a Greenland condition on that bill, this is all cheap talk. (And Dems need to be pushing Republicans by insisting on conditions to stop Minnesota-type abuses.)

Plenty of other things to panic about. Birth rates aren't one of them.

And, respectfully, what does staying accomplish? how will it change the misogyny and malice of those posting the images? And by leaving what do those left on XHustler "win"?

"I believe that we must set the example of supporting the party's nominee," Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said of Democrats—such as Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries—who haven't endorsed NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani. www.commondreams.org/news/aoc-zoh...

Starts with questionable assumption married women are happier than other women?

Never peer reviewed, data and code never shared, always straight to press release and reports by credulous media friends (coming soon to the Atlantic and Deseret News)

This style of reporting is atrocious. Governor Cook has not been fired. The President has “purported” to fire her. Governor Cook knows the president has no such power to do so—see her statement for details. We need a better media who does not accept every half baked narrative from the White House

We're living in a Dual State per Fraenkel's Dual State theory of fascism. Who's written about effective mobilization against Dual States?

This

D.C. has more residents than two U.S. states. They pay more per capita in federal taxes than any other state. But they don’t get a serious seat at the table to decide how they’re governed. D.C. statehood now.

We are already off to an amazing start! lcc.umn.edu/DIRC

Maybe it's time for the Fed -- which already runs a number of surveys through its regional banks -- to start running its own surveys to monitor unemployment and prices, the two components of its dual mandate.

I'll feature this insightful take on fertility this fall in Social Demography seminar.

I think this article is correct that some of the lawyers feel shame but my suspicion about the balaclavas is that the agents wear them in order to look more intimidating.

We are thrilled to announce that Family Relations, an official journal of NCFR, has released its special issue with the theme "Artificial Intelligence in Everyday Family Life." Discover the impact that these technologies can have on families and relationships. #familyrelations #AI

The Supreme Court’s “shadow docket” has cast very different shadows depending on which party holds the White House. When lower courts blocked Trump admin policies, SCOTUS intervened on an emergency basis to lift those orders in 77% of cases. For the Biden administration, that number was 0%.

This is an excellent and clear-eyed indictment of how the New York Times and their ilk are collaborating in authoritarianism.

Agree + we need from Democrats viral outreach about the positive outcomes government services and programs provide to people. Not the "Reagan Lite" offered during/post-Reagan.

Incredible. I never thought I would see a poster session as protest. 💪
