Though as a mixed methods researcher I have to say it’s quite biased against qualitative research. Not appropriate to call it a case study a “weaker” design or a red flag. They have different aims, not different qualities of evidence or design.

As a developmental psychologist, I differentiate btwn tools that give feedback that support attention and reflection vs those that offload development/thinking from the person. Surveillance and tech issues aside, this also seems like it offload rather than support development v quickly.

I will admit to sometimes slicing them up, adding olive oil and putting them in the air fryer for lunch purposes (they are really good that way too and faster)

there’s a feed of sites “popular with friends” that will even do that for you

We need to develop an emeritus role and a party practice of counseling starting at age 60 on how you are lifting up younger leaders in your district/state and thinking about transitioning out in the coming years.

I wish the polls were consistent though. Morning Consult for the same time period has him positive.

I think getting the concept of meta-analyses in science into the discourse would be valuable. Someone who could briefly distill what meta-analyses are and why we use them to understand patterns across studies, and then ask for how they inform his admin? Bc they are a defense agst cherry-picking.

Sometimes that's true, but many people are fair-minded. People who can't stand Newsom note he's meeting the moment media-wise right now. I share stuff from Dem reps all the time.Yet, I am also incredibly frustrated by the party's lack of ability to raise up and learn from its successful members.

What can I say? A media strategy is measured by its impact. The party doesn't amplify, support or learn much from the dems who are successful with media -instead they tend to curtail them due to internal politics/outdated ideas about 'message discipline.' You can't nag people into sharing content.

You said people don't share it-then it's not effective media strategy. I support Dems. Right now I think "The Dems" should be taking out ads that reiterate constitutional rights and how Trump/GOP are failing that, with each rep acting locally to meet the moment and generate media coverage for it.

Everyone should respond that having such signage does that.

Media from "The Dems" seems more party communication than media strategy. Tim Walz, AOC, and Pete Buttigieg are three different models that more could emulate-unique voices and media strategies. E.g., Walz highlights Minnesota AND explicitly connects these to Dem values in his own voice.

If you can't get national media, go to local and then share widely. Don't wait for party approval, party action, just go do it and represent.

That book came out when I was just starting high school and I randomly saw it in the public library and read it. I didn't have any context, didn't come from an intellectual family etc. It remains among my top most influential books.

Sometimes it's not a 'bad take,' it's a difference of opinion/disagreement.The only way I'm worried about an "echo chamber" in bsky is how having people roughly on the 'same side' can amplify relatively small differences. I catch it in my own thinking. We need each other even if we annoy each other.
