@DotanHaim @laurenrprather Cado is clearly not buying your argument.

I (a teenage brat) was quietly skeptical about these protests when I was a student. Not only did they succeed, UChicago immediately memory-holed all the counterarguments they raised!

That changed my view of the potential for campus protest to change "real" policy.

@carlislerainey I found this one both surprising and convincing: https://t.co/PzLHfvRX6l

New @The_JOP research with the inspiring @feiyonah on how local media portrayals of the #InternationalCriminalCourt shift in response to #ICC activities against politicians. There's still much to learn re: how #transitionaljustice info reaches the public. https://t.co/SGpKrA7SKY

What are your favorite examples of published papers with null findings?

I’m particularly interested in experiments where the researchers hypothesized some effect, but didn’t find it.

We're resuming the in-person PolNet conference, and everyone knows real-world networks are way better than online networks. Come join us for an awesome few days in Tallahassee!

Really happy to share this article about how civilians weigh their (bad) options when facing political violence.

I hope you will consider reading it, citing it in your work, or assigning it to your students. I'd be very grateful.

Here's a medium-long thread on the main ideas🧵

With an eye toward #SPSA2024, here are some rules that I made for myself as a presenter.

*I cannot promise that I follow these rules. Also, these are rules for *me*; you do you.

Gang, Hein and I have a piece out in The Economist arguing that the West must signal long-term commitment to Ukraine and neither overstate its deliveries nor conduct secret negotiations.

1/ FSU is hiring in IR! I cannot say enough good things about the department here – a place so collegial that I enjoy faculty meetings. I am happy to answer questions about the department/position, but for now, let me say some things about the city of Tallahassee.

[Kelly Matush @KellyMatush]

@jsanwalkadavis I want to know how you took that picture of yourself by the beach.

One of the most surprising things I've learned from being a parent is how frequently I rely on unhelpful and unintentional gendered assumptions. This work is super important.

[American Political Science Review @apsrjournal]

Father's leave reduces sexist attitudes. Margit Tavits, @PetraSchleiter, @j_homola, & Dalston Ward exploit paternity leave's effect on traditional gender roles to assess how it affects sexism in the socioeconomic and political domains. #APSRFirstView.

@carlislerainey @SeanDEhrlich @hjghassell @amilliff @pie_try_ka @olgasparyan Do you just know how many followers everything has, or did you look through your friends to see who was ahead of you?
