Pronatalists are less interested in persuading a larger number of women to have children than they are in persuading the "right" women to have a larger number of kids.

“Good economics” means preventing public finance that could rapidly solve social deprivation and the ecological crisis.

Neoclassical economics is a discipline that is designed to serve the interests of the capitalist class, and they are more or less honest about this fact.

Bernard Levinson and Robert Eriksen edited a book, “The Betrayal of the Humanities: The University during the Third Reich” that may interest a lot of you. One of the chapters was, specifically, about how lawyers, judges, and the legal academy accommodated rather than resisted the destruction of law

Vance: someone's posts on social media shouldn't ruin their lives 😭😭😣😣

meanwhile Palestinian activists have been dixxed, harassed, and worse for social media posts

I know the hypocrisy is the point, but still. I suppose I'm grateful I still have blood left to boil at this point.
Please god do not get that motherfucker back in there i need rest

My paper, “Gaming Money,” is in the cycle. I show how companies like Microsoft, Sony, & Roblox financially harm gamers but also evade banking laws meant to prevent structural problems. I analyze this phenomenon from a FinReg + Law & Tech POV & propose a response 🎮 🤑 ⚖️ 👇

If you missed today's talk, you can watch it here. Together, @epopppp.bsky.social and @abenewman.bsky.social provided a framework for thinking about the current moment, and it's risks to our financial system and our democracy. And listen to the Q&A for more talk about risks and possible next steps.

Nathan's coverage of the DOGE takeover of the Treasury payments system is unmatched, and already having immediate consequences - happy to dedicate my first post on this account to promoting Notes on the Crises
