The president of Harvard could literally belittle and harass women pursuing degrees in economics, and most economists will still argue that gender bias doesn't explain why there are so few women pursuing degrees in economics!

In honor of long COVID awareness day, I wanted to speak about what my experience is like, 25 months in.
I am much better but still only leave the house a couple times a week.

Benjamin Wallace-Wells writes about the fentanyl crisis and the Democrats’ failure to respond to it. The Party was “a little too ready to dismiss the hubbub over opioids as partisan hysteria, and a little too slow to notice that people were actually troubled.”
Did the Opioid Epidemic Fuel Donald Trump’s Return to the White House?
New research suggests that the Democrats’ struggles in communities battling fentanyl addiction had little to do with economic theory or messaging—it was, more simply, a failure of political attention.

Worth reading. No idea how much weight to give the thesis that Dems lost these regions because Republicans gave the fentanyl crisis much more political and media attention, along with purported trade and border-focused solutions.
A study found that communities targeted by sales reps pushing OxyContin in the ’90s moved towards the Republicans by an extra 4.6% in the 2020 House elections. "In a country on a partisan knife's edge, this is a remarkable effect," Benjamin Wallace-Wells writes.

Perhaps the single most disturbing post-election statistic/correlation I have read this month.
