using chatgpt to generate a "family" image with 2 adults + kid and wow it can't hold back the heternormativity. after explicit instructions to remove hair/clothes and like 5 iterations, it *shortens* the "mom's" hair...but adds a boob for good measure

Bringing “move fast and break things” to government. I hope people who take this offer don’t get screwed when it turns out they can’t legally follow through on it.

I have a graph and a riddle for #EconSky. The following graph shows work status for non-unemployed married individuals with a child under school age, for men and women in 🇸🇪 and 🇺🇸respectively. I suspect most people can pick out men vs women, but can you id the Swedes vs Americans?

Maybe this is true of psychology ? But it’s certainly not true of economics

As a mom I can confirm that Albus Dumbledore was correct: you can never have too many socks (of exactly one color per child)

I get why an AI would produce this picture from this caption but not why an esteemed economist who has many young economists in his readership that aren’t white or male would post it seemingly without thinking twice. #EconSky

My alma mater’s president has said she’s going to no longer make statements on global/domestic issues, and honestly, it makes a lot of sense. People get angry about companies/institutions etc being “silent” but I’m not convinced it would be worse if more people did in fact shut up about things

I wonder just how important this is (my guess is very)

Experimental people 📉📈 are these normal reasons to drop a participant from a study?

Listening to some 90s Everclear for a little nostalgia while working and oh wow does their music hit different as an adult/parent/family economist. I know all the words but somehow never really heard what they were about???
