@jk_rowling I understand the fear you have about men in women’s spaces but I wish you wouldn’t take it out on transgender women. If you had a transgender loved one perhaps you might understand the fear they have 24/7 just being themselves in any space. You are fighting the wrong battle.

#VUWStrike Living wage for at least all staff. It's particularly poor that the starting rate for tutor's at VUW is below that of other uni's in spite of greater living costs, please support even if the disruption is inconvenient.

Massive status bias in peer review.

534 reviewers randomized to review the same paper revealing the low status, high status, or neither author. 65% reject low status, 23% reject high status.

Amazing work by Juergen Huber and colleagues. #prc9

@Jimmygotsoul @rvaux16 @MuellerSheWrote @dh4onethingonly Actually by this definition we do. If the “god” is just and good by our standards they will allow us into heaven. If they are not good or just by our standards, we would have never wanted to believe in them anyway.
