Thanks so much to @andrea_c_hsu @NPR for this opportunity. To all my fellow working moms and caretakers out there - I see you and hope saying this out loud helps you to feel heard and helps others to see the challenges we are facing tinyurl.com/chennpr

Childcare. Is. Infrastructure. We absolutely need coordination and collective action on this, just like all other infrastructure.

The fed govt must get involved with childcare. Even when CEOs want to help it is a financial no-go. To have enough kids to fill a new center, one CEO would have had to get other businesses on board. But other CEOs felt child care wasn't their problem. npr.org/2024/09/04/nx-s1-504…
This boss vowed to help his workers with child care. It hasn't been easy

This boss vowed to help his workers with child care. It hasn't been easy

Child care continues to vex working parents. In Wisconsin, the CEO of the Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry has been trying — and struggling — to make a difference.

If Dems found half as much energy to attack MAGA, the real threat, then we’d be good. For all the geniuses out there who think someone else would be better, 1) explain to me who it is, 2) how they get on the ballot in all 50 states, 3) how they get the money and apparatus together to get this done in 4 months (the over 100 million Biden has on hand doesn’t transfer) 4) how we explain that a random person has been selected… subverting the votes that were casts, because of bad polls. Dems spend all their time seeking perfection, while Republicans focus on their disastrous agenda & could care less so long as they rig the system in their favor! USE YOUR ENERGY ADDRESSING PROJECT 2025 & the fact that this Supreme Court has laid the foundation to finalize the full destruction of our democracy!

If your primary job is not research but you want to keep publishing research, how do you do it? Based on a prompt from @a_peterman, I offer 6 suggestions based on my experience in non-research units of international organizations. 👇 What's your advice and what did I get wrong?

Replying to @a_peterman
1. Move down journal rankings more quickly. I think non-academics both get less credit for top journals & have less time to deal with 6 rounds of peer review. If I get rejected at a top journal, I usually drop to a lower tier quickly. Goal is to get it out in a reasonable outlet.

This is so elegant and powerful… “Israel is better than the way this war is being waged. It is better than blocking food and medicine to civilians. It is better than killing aid workers who had coordinated their movements with the Israel Defense Forces.” nytimes.com/2024/04/03/opini…

I just bought shoptrumpsneakers.com I have redirected you to a page to call your member of congress. The twist is the person who makes the call is a victim of gun violence, whose voice has been re-created with AI to call for gun safety.

Great info on K-8 learning loss following COVID… but @seda_data @StanfordCEPA @HarvardCEPR DON’T 👏 MAKE 👏 ASIANS 👏 INVISIBLE 👏 I suspect we will see similar divergence among Asians in rich and poor districts. nytimes.com/interactive/2024…

Students Are Making a ‘Surprising’ Rebound From Pandemic Closures. But Some May Never Catch Up....

The first detailed nationwide data on schools’ recovery shows that achievement gaps have widened, with the poorest students the furthest behind.

We also need to know how the composition of districts changed over this period… If lower income students from rich districts move into poor districts, that could also explain the divergence, separate from recovery programs.
