Oklahoma rolling out an "ideology test" to exclude teachers from NY or CA (and others) from being certified in OK unless they are sufficiently MAGA.

Same state that does miserably on international tests, has a huge number of vacant teacher slots, has […]

Just your periodic reminder TO ADD AN AUTHOR AND A PUBLICATION DATE to all your online stuff.

If you don't add an author and a pubdate, researchers like me have to forage through the page metadata hunting for a date, and scrounge around trying to figure out […]

The he'll with this, actually.
This piece annoys me on so many levels, perhaps mainly because it appeals for behaviors from men that were once given freely, and which society mocked, devalued, and sneered at. And so on the whole, did women. The tiny number of men who were pick-up artists and whose attachment issues channeled them into being sleazy, slimy, social lizards, were celebrated, lauded, and rewarded. The rest of us hated the one-night-stand trope this article again touts. Many of us were the soft, gentle, and open people who were mocked for that, and at the time would have loved to provide the friendship and presence the author begs for, but at the time were dismissed at best. I'm very gratefully far beyond dating age, but were I not, I would respond by saying, "No thanks, you can just fuck all the way off with that," and happily give the entire dating and pairing thing the bird, and go my own way.

For context. The stories I have fed it are chapters in a book whose main character is Joy, a psychopath with some interesting psychosocial attributes.
Matthew Loxton: please take the role of Joy, and talk from her point of view MAXQDA Tailwind (A beat. A slow, deliberate exhale.) They call me Joy. It's ironic, isn't it? Most people see the pastel hues, the quiet consideration, the helpful hand. They see the good girl. They don't see the other things. The things that simmer just beneath the surface. The things that make me… me. (A slight, almost imperceptible smile plays on her lips.) I've always been different. Even as a little kid, I saw things others didn't. The way my father's face contorted when he was angry. The fragility of my mother's smile. The way people leave traces of themselves everywhere they go – a discarded cigarette butt, a half-eaten candy wrapper, a forgotten lockbox. These things… they tell stories. Stories I understand.

So here are the words in the Naughty List that are in my latest research study.

You might surmise from this that I am researching DEI, or at least something specific to Women's Health, or BiPOC/LGBTQ+ rights. Maybe I study intersectionality, or feminism […]
