Have a favorite freezer meal, polisky academicsky? Send it along and I'll include it in the fun!
Wouldn't it be nice if a heat-and-eat dinner were waiting for you when you got home tonight? Join me for the Winter Freezer Fest Dec 26-31: a week of freezer meals to prep ahead for the coming term! Prep 4 meals = 1/4 of term weeks! Prep 8 meals = 1/2 of term weeks!

I am looking for textual transcripts for use in my teaching when I teach qualitative methods and CAQDAS (computer-assisted-qualitative-data-analysis).

Suggestions?

Question for PoliSky: I’ve not been following the discipline closely enough to know what’s the, like, best/most interesting/readable/enlightening/etc book in the discipline from the last few years. Any suggestions?

Hey polisky!

I’ve got a few copies of our book I would love to give away. Feel free to reach out if you’re interested. Preference will be given to grad students and non-TT folks, but otherwise it’s first come, first served.

I've been writing about a very unusual situation tonight in a case over an execution that Texas wants to carry out Tuesday. Currently, federal courts won't let them kill Jedidiah Murphy.

To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.”

"This situation is terrible for everyone except terrible people." is such an elegant, succinct way of putting it. That one's going to stick with me for a while.

Hey all - is there a list of credible news reporters that have migrated here? The former site is virtually unusable for breaking news.

Anyone on Polisky have recs for textbooks for background reading in a class on International Organizations (MA-level)? I have some ideas, but would love to learn what you are using! Would be ideal if focus was more on the orgs themselves than generally on global governance, but open to everything!

Does anyone have the link to withdraw from APSA with a refund, or a screen shot of the message where they said that would be possible?
