Keir Starmer could have ended child poverty, homelessness and the grotesque levels of inequality in this country.

Instead, he abandoned those in need, destroyed our civil liberties and facilitated genocide in Gaza.

That is how this Prime Minister will be remembered - and that is the legacy of moral and political bankruptcy he leaves behind.

The crises in our society are not going away. Neither are we - and we will keep fighting for a more equal, peaceful and dignified society for all.

Adrián Rubalcava debería renunciar de forma inmediata, o @ClaraBrugadaM pedirle la renuncia. En lugar de preocuparse por la falta de inclusión y accesibilidad para todos y todas las usuarias del metro, prefiere culpar a un usuario con discapacidad visual.

[Adrián Rubalcava @AdrianRubalcava]

En el Metro trabajamos todos los días para brindar un servicio seguro para todas y todos, especialmente para las personas con discapacidad que utilizan nuestra red.

Les compartimos este video de línea 1 en el que, de manera accidental, un bastón de apoyo utilizado por una persona con discapacidad visual cayó a la zona de vías, provocando un arco eléctrico y una interrupción momentánea del servicio en la estación Zaragoza. Afortunadamente, no se registraron personas lesionadas.

Este incidente nos permite recordar la importancia de sujetar firmemente nuestras pertenencias y objetos de apoyo al permanecer cerca del andén, ya que una situación involuntaria puede generar afectaciones a la operación y retrasos para miles de usuarios.

Agradecemos su comprensión, solidaridad y colaboración para seguir construyendo un transporte más seguro e incluyente para todas y todos.

Este es un ejemplo sobre cómo todo lo que hacemos requiere tiempo para macerarlo, fermentar las ideas, reflexionarlas.

Our paper “Difference-in-Differences Designs: A Practitioner’s Guide” is now published in the Journal of Economic Literature. It took us a while but we are happy!

We put together a lot of material to make the paper useful in practice: https://t.co/30TbAgihlz

Hope you like!

Last call for those interested in joining my team and me in Buenos Aires for the Chicago School in Experimental Economics, November 4-8, 2026! There is no program fee, and financial assistance for accommodations is available.

This intensive one-week summer school is designed to deepen scholars' understanding of frontier experimental methods. Lessons will range from designing and conducting experiments to analyzing and interpreting data to writing up your findings. The curriculum draws from my new textbook, Experimental Economics: Theory and Practice.

The application deadline is April 30, 2026. Please apply here: https://t.co/8Aj3EtXqLM

Any questions, please contact Melissa De Vries at [email protected]

[John A. List @Econ_4_Everyone]

I have spent my career running field experiments. With my new book coming out I have decided to run a few on all of you! Here is the first one!

I am giving away a bundle: 1 signed copy of my new book Experimental Economics: Theory and Practice + 1 free t-shirt of the book. But, there is a Dictator Game twist.

In the comments please tag a friend. Before you know if you win, tell me your allocation: keep both, give one, or give it all away. If you are randomly selected, I'm holding you to what you said. Your choice is already public, and your friend can see it right now. Your chances of winning do not depend on your allocation.

I will randomly select a winner this Saturday at midnight EST and report back.

Extra credit giveaway: if the random person chosen also retweeted this message, then I will also send a signed copy of The Voltage Effect to both them and their partner. And, yes, your partner can sign up too to double your chances!

Good luck!

[Oscar G. Cervantes (he/him) @OscarGCer]

@Econ_4_Everyone @BrianNoguez1, sorry, but I would like to keep both 🤭

New Publication Alert!🚨 In this paper, we explore whether extending the school day in Mexico reduced crime. We document that it does. Robbery dropped 11% in more exposed areas, mainly due to incapacitation.
