THREAD/// Best Jordan Peterson critiques we've found so far///

Our piece on @jordanbpeterson comes out in a week or so. But before that we'd like to highlight several critiques that have influenced/impressed us, and enlarge the discussion beyond our scope (and time).
1/ First off is @thebafflermag's "A Serious Man" by John Ganz, Steven Klein.

@jordanbpeterson's relationship with Enlightenment ideas is excellently discussed and broken down.
thebaffler.com/latest/peterso…
2/ If you want a breakdown on @jordanbpeterson's lackluster academic approach to many academic topics he claims to know, you should read @Katja_Thieme's piece in @pyriscence
pyriscence.ca/home/2018/8/16…
3/ An intro into Jordan Peterson's mismatched appropriation of Christian theology.

madeleinedavies.co.uk/2018/08/22/the…
4/ "12 RULES FOR LIFE: AN ANTIDOTE TO CHAOS reviewed by Adam A.J. DeVille": probably the best theology piece we've read. It cuts through a lot of @jordanbpeterson's worldview, & his disturbing attraction to Christians.

5/ @kate_manne's excellent analysis on how far @jordanbpeterson misses the mark on diagnosing/treating social ills.

the-tls.co.uk/articles/publi…
6/ Pankaj Mishra's dissection of the fascistic and mystic facets of @jordanbpeterson's worldview (for the @nybooks) was a precise read for anyone interested in the pervasive effects of fascism. Definitely our favorite so far! nybooks.com/daily/2018/03/…
7/ And lastly, a critique from a former colleague of @jordanbpeterson's on the man's rise into academia and subsequent fame. thestar.com/opinion/2018/0…
8/ END of THREAD///

Also, be sure to check out this comprehensive resource on Peterson critiques, via @kiwinerd (and get ready for ours!). ap.io/pet/12/

What Does Islam Say About Relationships? What's Wrong With Having Boy/Girlfriends?

Issa #thread
Meaning zare in hausa
Answer by Shaykh Salim Ghiza:
In the name of Allah the most Beneficent and Merciful.
Pre-marital relationships (boy/girlfriends) are strictly Haram (forbidden) in Islam. For non permissible males to have a relationship with nonpermissible females is one of the major sins in
today's era.

Unfortunately we see this western influence spreading like an illness amongst the Muslim youth. As barriers of work and study have been relaxed by parents, as they would like to see their children prosper, it has brought its evils with it.

*THREAD* Going to share a snippet from my upcoming e-mail course with @thedulab coming out later this week! This particular snippet is on price anchoring, what it is, and how to use it to help price your products in-store...
“Anchoring refers to the tendency to heavily rely on the first piece of information offered when making decisions.”
Anchoring is all around us. When you go to the grocery store, when you go to the mall, when you look at the price of gas, when retailers run a sale, the cost of living, when you go to costco, etc.

1st #Thread of responses from women in aerodynamics to the question, 'what barriers/challenges have you faced/overcome in your career path?'

Overwhelmingly, discrimination, issues related to being the only woman in their place of work, and childcare were cited most #WomeninSTEM
1. "In several of my positions, I have been the first woman hired. There have been challenges proving that I am as intelligent and capable as my male colleagues. I have faced bias, as well as discrimination in pay and acknowledgment of my capabilities."
2. "I have not had any barrier for being a woman but I think sometime I have created my own barriers: low ambition, being too prudent and now I realize I had to think bigger to achieve bigger things. My main challenge has being to juggle my work and my role as mum of 3 children."

"I haven't written for a while, I'm not even sure I can piece words together to form beautiful sentences that would appeal to you the reader, but I do have a story, a really beautiful story...." I paused. Would that make for a good intro? Was something missing? As I pondered, my
thoughts were interrupted by a light knock on the bedroom door, and the sight of a bearded light-skinned face peeping
"Hey Teddy Bear, you up yet?" Chuks said, as he came in.
"No, you light-skinned bearded Ogre, I'm still fast asleep" I replied.

OK my @medium account got "caught in the spam filter" & has been restored so let me try this #thread again. I've been working for several months on a series of blogs explaining trolling & botting tactics used by 4chan during the election. #ContentWarning: medium.com/@erin_gallaghe…
