Many correspondence audits collect data on multiple characteristics but don't examine all potential forms of discrimination. In our latest paper on @socarxiv.bsky.social, “Missing Results of Discrimination,” we show that scholars may unintentionally miss key findings.

Missing Results of Discrimination: A Systematically Comparative Meta-Analysis and Re-Examinations of Racial, Gender, and Intersectional Discrimination using Correspondence Audits

Intersectionality theory argues that race and gender cannot be fully understood in isolation or through an additive approach. However, field experiments frequently examine aggregate racial or gender…

A man in academia: He's amazing! He doesn't disrespect me, allows me to suggest my own ideas & even got me an unpaid internship.

A woman in ac: She advocated so I'd get pay for internship, supported my mental health & gave me a kidney. But her 'hello' was cold. She might be a bitch, I don't know.

There is absolutely no reason to deport a longtime journalist who is authorized to work in the United States.

The Dekalb County Sheriff's Office should not have released Mario Guevara to ICE.

🚨By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court UPHOLDS Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, concluding that it does NOT discriminate on the basis of sex, is not subject to heightened scrutiny, and survives rational basis review. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

"Pilgrim said the skybridge will improve accessibility to the Capitol and to committee hearings for young people, seniors and people in wheelchairs. "

Maybe fix the sidewalks, crosswalks, and building entrances first?

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

“A Busy, Busy Day at the Airport”

By Ruben Bolling

Genius. Click in.

A cartoon showing various activity at an airport, including an extorted luxury jet, an exploding X rocket, a ketamine enthusiast wheeling a barrow of money to his plane, many ICE officers -- some taking people to an El Salvador plane, another with a zip-tied child being blocked by a federal judge -- scientists boarding a plane to Europe, a medical self-educator covered with pox, and more. All the people are represented by various animals. The story is made in the style of a Richard Starry children's book. Alt text borrowed from Mastodon..

Bill Torpy wrote something similar a few weeks ago, and I'm not buying it. Their "solution" doesn't align well with the problem they suggest.

IF their concerns are truly about peds vs micromobility, consider first regulating the scooters plaguing the beltline. These are allowed to be dumped everywhere, often right in the middle of the path. People riding them often have limited experience & possibly inebriated at the most congested times.

S. Michael Gaddis @smgaddis.bsky.social · May 15

This is such stupid bullshit. The Atlanta Botanical Garden has especially shown their true colors by giving us a massive Public Storage right on the beltline and now this.

INBOX: In an op-ed, leaders of Atlanta Botanical Garden, Park Pride, and Trust for Public Land embraced Mayor Dickens' "group project" to kill the voter-approved Streetcar East Extension and move things Southside. They are now calling for building a second Eastside BeltLine along the streetcar ROW.

The Beltline is increasingly popular, and Atlanta must help it evolve

The Eastside Beltline is in desperate need of a second trail.

Lots of people are in crisis. Many of us have lost our jobs. Others been reduced to half time. The rest fear what’s coming. Education evaluation positions have been entirely eliminated at some firms. The world for thousands is radically different than it was even 3 months ago. So, yeah, this tracks.

Hey NY Times--

It is still a "fringe theory" -- every court has rejected it.

There is still a "broad consensus" -- John Eastman is a disgraced lawyer under indictment.

The only thing that has changed is the Times.
