The Difference Between “Significant” and “Not Significant” is not Itself Statistically Significant

"exposure to public service broadcasting and broadsheet newspapers was associated with accurate belief stabilization and correction, whereas [...] social media consistently undermined accurate beliefs, increased transitions into misinformation or uncertainty, and hindered corrective belief updating.

Authors write the book, and authors or publishers release the book, but it's readers who weild the power behind the book. If you love something you've read, tell everyone, give it as gifts, sing its praises high and low. This and only this is the real magic in publishing.

It can not be stressed enough that this club as a whole isn't where it's at today without Trevor. No championships, no second division, NOTHING.

THANK YOU TREVOR.
Thank you, Trevor.

Your leadership transformed Detroit City FC and helped shape our club’s identity. We are forever grateful.

Stay tuned as we share some unforgettable moments from Trevor’s years at the helm.

LeGuin wrote about the desire for 'unassailable safety' as one of the deep roots of evil, and I think about that a lot.
We need to teach people the difference between being uncomfortable and being unsafe. Because the discomfort of the safest people is endangering the most vulnerable, all day every day.

Students of Columbia in 1776 tore down a statue of King George that was on campus when the declaration of independence was announced there(It was named Kings College) and melted it down to make musket balls. Today that same university sadly decided to hand its balls over to a would be modern king.

Here's the thing, soccer club coaches and operators, this is your community. What is your plan to support the kids, families, and your coaches in your organization? Don't have one? Don't think you need one?

Today is John Brown’s birthday

Let’s honor him like Malcolm X said: “We need allies who are going to help us achieve a victory, not allies who are going to tell us to be nonviolent. If a white man wants to be your ally, what does he think of John Brown? You know what JB did? He went to war”
