Thanks to my thesis committee at the @UNOmaha Department of Sociology and Anthropology for their help getting across the stage yesterday. I could not have done it without my advisor Dr. Beth Ritter + Drs. Brady DeSanti & Alecia Anderson to round out my committee dream team.

Congratulations to Omaha Magazine Executive Editor
@DougMeigs on graduating from the @UNOmaha with a master’s degree in sociology!

I knew this was coming. We are so f*cked - fake and real now look the same.

We desperately need tools to show journals and researchers that data is real, not AI-generated.

This was such a powerful story by my colleague Natalie Veloso. Congrats to Natalie and the @omahamagazine team on this national recognition.

Thank you to the directing team! From planning through execution of the big night, the 20th OEAAs would not have been possible without co-directors Hughston Walkinshaw, Lori Lynn Ahrends and Julian Adair.

[OEA-Awards @oeaawards]

Thank you, @OmahaMagazine, for joining the 20th OEAAs — and for covering the arts in Omaha!

Long before the Epstein Files Act, decades before the Pizzagate conspiracy theories, there was the Franklin Credit Union scandal out of Omaha, Nebraska.

Read more on how Franklin links up with justice for Epstein’s victims in the forthcoming March/April issue of @omahamagazine

[Omaha Magazine @omahamagazine]

When Alisha Owen heard a survivor describe her experience with Epstein on television, it pulled her back into the Franklin scandal. Now, Owen once again finds herself inside the story, working in familiar territory with others affected by the Epstein case.

Tis the season for hot pot. Words of wisdom from @wingp in @omahamagazine.

Hotpot is more than a meal; it’s a cozy ritual, complete with conversation and the occasional competition over who cooked their meat just right.

Whether you’re new to the hotpot game or a seasoned hotpot master, here are a few spots to explore:
