@rachcorrine Musée Marmotan Monet, amazing under the radar museum. Bistrot Paul Bert. The steak in pepper sauce is awesome. APC Surplus for shopping.

@rachcorrine The look on the right is fire. Will try to replicate with the Proper Cloth western linen shirt.

@rachcorrine The other day on reddit, I told people that golf polos only belonged on the golf course. I was downvoted so hard. When you come for their golf polos, they get angry. But we must continue the good fight to get people to stop using them.

I did something that's big news for me, and not typically what academic political scientists do:

I wrote a parenting book about our subject.

This is a medium-long thread on why/how.

Francisco was the best among us. He was not only a grear scholar, but amazing human being and friend. We had just texted a couple of weeks ago. He will be sorely missed. Our friendship began even before we were academics, as we were roommates before he started his PhD.

[Abraham Aldama @abaldama]

His scholarship on electoral fraud is truly groundbreaking. But he will be remembered more for the moments he shared with people: going for early morning runs to swear a hangover, going to Six Flags as his good-bye from Mexico City before moving to San Diego, getting cheap pizza

In doing so, we provide experimental evidence in favor of the compensatory theory of taxation/redistribution

Excited to share my recent publication joint with my former student Reilly Wright "Not all luck is created equal: Sources of income inequality and willingness to redistribute" at the Journal of Economic Psychology: https://t.co/kuVJhS7IHq

[Abraham Aldama @abaldama]

We show that not only are folks more willing to redistribute when "luck" is causing inequality, but that they are particularly more like to redistribute when the source of such "luck" is the action of an authority
