Dear #IOPsych:

Public health crises. Economic chaos. Layoffs, furloughs, salary pressures. Consulting? HR programs? Are we essential?

It is really scary right now. But let's not forget: we were created in secret military labs. Bc orgs are made of people, and bc science works.

Best @profgalloway one-liner this week: describing Mark Zuckerberg's metaverse as "a giant incel panic room that no one is going to"

Keep it up!

"for people who can't afford healthcare"

Literally blinded by privilege. What a gross thing to say/want/work towards.

[@emilymbender.bsky.social @emilymbender]

When you're Associate Director of something called "Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence" but the $$ all comes from Silicon Valley so you feel compelled to retweet the clown suggesting that the poors should have LLM-generated medical advice instead of healthcare.

With all of the layoffs and hiring freezes in #HRTech, many of the intelligent interviewing/smart interviewing/assessment providers are still hiring. 2023 is all about quality of hire.

[Dr. Ken Lahti @Psychobabble_IO]

@johncutlefish Agreed. With limited everything (time, people, customers' attention), the biggest ROI risks are almost always opportunity costs. Mediocrity is probably the next biggest spender that destroys potential returns

Big week! Headed to #SIOP22 for my 1st in-person conference in 3 years. Psyched and looking forward to great sessions and I-O learnings, reunions with colleagues, and the full-blown human zoo -- people acting even more awkward than before covid broke our social skills.

Important police accountability work

[Samuel Sinyangwe @samswey]

The Grand Rapids Police Department refuses to release the name of the officer who killed #PatrickLyoya. How often do police release the officers’ names after they kill people? The answer depends on where you live. Let’s examine the data. (1/x) https://t.co/FLknm26w07

Some of those that work forces apparently are indeed the same that burn crosses.

[Dr. Ken Lahti @Psychobabble_IO]

This. Whole. Thread.

[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

I almost hesitate to use the term “government” b/c a government itself is a neutral entity. How it operates depends entirely on who controls it.

We’re being killed by a specific collective of ppl who either belong to the owner class or profit off serving owner class interests.

some news: today, i’m excited to launch https://t.co/lznpLOtC9b. this ever-expanding black film archive provides history and context to over 200 black films made from 1915 to 1979 currently streaming.

every description on the site is lovingly written & researched by me.

I’m guessing this doesn’t include the people Portland police shot this year.

[Stephen Richer @stephen_richer]

Wow. This is unhinged. I’m literally looking at our voter registration database on my other screen. Right now.

We can’t indulge these insane lies any longer. As a party. As a state. As a country.

This is as readily falsifiable as 2+2=5. If we don’t call this out...

[SHL @SHLglobal]

#Childcare is not a family issue, it is a business issue. It affects how we work, when we #work and for many, why we work. Moving forward, employer-provided child care could also influence where we work. https://t.co/zAM2yG0aFo

[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

At what point in devising a million new things we must do to salvage policing do we admit that it can’t be saved because the fundamental problem to begin with is that the state licenses people to kill other people?

[Dr. Ken Lahti @Psychobabble_IO]

"8% of murdered men in US were killed by police."

These are extra-judicial pre-trial executions.

[molly conger @socialistdogmom]

naysayers love to say we can't defund the police because then who will catch murderers but they conveniently forget that police commit 1/3 of all murders in which the perpetrator is a stranger to the victim.
