I'm technically a doctor, just not that kind of doctor. Views are my own, unless they’re clever or insightful in which case they’re probably someone else’s.

@shelbygrossman @dynarski Obviously the solution is to use rainfall as an instrumental variable.

@KyleBaileyClub Long-term career opportunity. Think of all the media markets that he has networks/relevance in!

@AlfredoPaloyo @Andrew___Baker I assume that’s part of the two-hour “gym” session. There’s no way someone needs two hours for a workout unless they’re a pro athlete; even then it’s likely an hour of training and an hour of rehab/recovery.

@Memphis Y’all still have the same number of World Cup trophies as the US.

@BleacherReport It’s a joke to suggest rewarding Bama for losing to both LSU and UT so they didn’t have to lose the SEC championship game to UGA.

@wwwojtekk Every economist knows that stars are important!

You’re correct about European dominance, especially at club level. But for the US, the focus should be getting as many players over to top-tier European clubs as possible to get that exposure. Sadly, USA won’t qualify for Euro’24

@wwwojtekk Who, aside from Uruguay for their two Olympics wins, has stars on their national team badges that aren’t World Cup wins? I’m pretty sure Italy didn’t add a fifth after 2020.

[ArbitraryMike @arbitrarymike]

@wwwojtekk No one is adding a star to their national badge because they won the Euros.

@lollujo Hilarious how poorly the English are taking 0-0 with no injuries and a likely guarantee that they top the group.

@Dmart2549 @NathanReade2 @baddong23 @alancryptoJD @eternalpissbaby @SaeedDiCaprio Just my opinion and maybe only relevant to certain cases, but I don’t think “working hard” and “owned a state-supported mining company that used forced labor” are synonymous.

@BrianCAlbrecht Is the collusion their collective decision to not send data to a third-party aggregator?

[ArbitraryMike @arbitrarymike]

@Redistrict @CookPolitical Can you show the numbers that only includes contested races?

@vectornomist Im indifferent to jokes in JMTs. I think JMTs are to get a sense of your understanding of your own research. I care more about personality in small group settings—how I would be working with potential colleagues—than if your talk is entertains.

Disclaimer: I’m not an academic.

@andersen_hecon @politico I used to feel this way but then the Dems picked up Alaska.

@Doctrine_Man Counterpoint: HIMARS and precision munitions have made a huge difference for the Uke’s ability to fight back.

@FriedsonAndrew Bold to assume that Twitter will still be operating by the time the grant is reviewed.

@PastoorIsabel Some places give you a cake after your defense.
