I’m learning the local humor in Galicia. I was told an old lady was killed by the Fun Train crossing the street and the guy then laughed.

He’s reading this for fun. Tbh, I probably screwed up signing him up for that. He loved philosophy camp.

Attorney generals from four states unite here in phoenix at a community gathering. Woes over Medicaid cuts, loss of veterans jobs and benefits, among other DOGE casualties

Is this for real? Public policy is being dictated by bad movie plots.

Super useful 🧵posted on the other site about trends for posting jobs on JOE. Total jobs listed on JOE is down 9.3% from this point last year, down 23.3% from 2022, and down 11.2% from 2021.

Photo of most (but not all) of our Belmont Forum group working on climate migration research in Madagascar. We met up in Toulouse to collaborate on papers and plan our next set of surveys and climate data products. IRD, U of Antananarivo, ASU, Cornell, OSU, and Nordic Africa Institute #EconSky

I was feeling a bit agitated this week but a workshop in southern France can fix your mood real quick

New binders for my new stat course prep. I always used to take the used white notebooks from our supply closet. I thought I’d try something new.

This is a great conference to attend if you are an economist that works on #migration. The quality of the sessions is top notch. Also, papers will be considered for a special issue at World Development. Deadline for papers is 9/20. #EconSky

Tonight’s the night

AAEA is hosting an early career professionals workshop in mid-December at UC Davis with expenses covered (except registration fee). I’ll be on panel to talk about becoming a scholar, my editorial role at climatic change, and caregiving and work.

Post-doc at UCLouvain w/ @jfmaystadt.bsky.social
and @IFPRI on conflict and migration project in LMICs. Details enclosed. #Econsky #polisky #geosky #jobs

My sister was sending me photos of my niece’s Halloween parade. Omg, this one is so good

Really interesting thread on the other site. I also put in a staff position on my grant since I believe postdoc is less desirable and I’m open to MS or PhD hire

Coming back to an earlier thread by @paulgp.bsky.social, we have has this for at least 10 years and the grinder never let us down.

Polisky is thriving. Are they better at collective action than economists or are economists just too stubborn to leave the other site?

Anyone see this guy yet? 📉📈

Getting our Lisboa on. Two hours into the rules. Waiting to get my ass kicked.
