Any alternatives to Smart Art in Word? I want to go beyond bullets, text boxes, etc. But Smart Art in Word isn't doing for me. Any suggestions?

[Charles Lau @CharlesQLau]

@packreads Oh no! Best of luck and sending love to you all!

[Charles Lau @CharlesQLau]

Please never, ever, ever say "our study is the first to do X." Likely, you are wrong, especially given lags in publication. Also, what's the value in being first? Better to be right, thorough, and careful.

[Charles Lau @CharlesQLau]

@packreads Sending love and hugs!

We can’t resign ourselves to fatalism.

“People won’t wear masks.”

“They won’t get vaccinated.”

“There’s no political will.”

We must keep using our voices holding our electeds accountable. We have not nearly tried everything in the toolbox yet. We can’t give up.

I want my Bruin Card back!

What a pleasure to conduct a lit review for a project! It’s been a few years. Funded opportunities to read and think are few and far between, love them!

@drjenndowd @OxfordDemSci So many data failures around COVID stem from disciplinary silos. Adjusting for age structure of a pop is a no brainer to many demographers but not to others. How can our disciplines share our basic tools with each other better?

[Jenn Dowd @drjenndowd]

Primal screams of “YES!” from demographers. This and pretty much all pandemic data. #poptwitter @OxfordDemSci

@EpiEllie Disagree! The spiral illustrates the seasons and takes the reader in a journey. Think outside the box!

@AmyYanni @lourdesgnavarro @NPR @AudieCornish @NoelKing True, @AmyYanni ! And more.

Something I try to remember everyday. In the day-to-day hustle of survey research in #aapor world, this message of grace can sometimes be easy to forget. Let’s give each other - coworker, boss, client, supplier - love and peace this year.

[Dr. Ijeoma Opara @IjeomaOparaPHD]

Remember, as we start 2022 to give yourself and others grace. We have been in a constant state of fear and anxiety for two years straight. This is not normal.

Sacrifices must be made
we are sorry
you must cancel your plans
it is not safe
for you to gather
with friends and family
right now.

But keep your shoes on
your shift is starting soon
and your workplace
requires your presence.

You must make sacrifices
and be sacrificed as well.
