A wide range of topics...
If only there was something one could do about these issues instead of calling them "enforced"...

It has come to our attention that some people are suggesting that "dog paper" was accepted because reviewers are busy people and
"is same as physics journal accepting a paper with fake data"

To dispel such notions, we shall publish reviewer comments to Dog rape paper.
[thread]
It starts off slow and fairly optimistic, with paper being rejected (they almost dodged the bullet here, didn't theEE
EEE wait a minute... oh... oh wow, "animals and black feminist geographies", now that's an unfortunate turn of phrase...

A little thread, which I may come back to, for all those #technophobes who blame rise in #suicide on #socialmedia.

First: legit, what rise?
Second: The actual experts do not agree with you, and your fear-mongering is likely causing more harm than good.
cf. Thomas, K, and Gunnell, D. (2010). Suicide in England and Wales 1861–2007: a time-trends analysis. International Journal of Epidemiology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2010, Pages 1464–1475.
So, first the data, from #UK (above) and elsewhere (below).

Clearly if this epidemic was *caused* by a *single* factor it would permeate all societies with social media.

So here's a thing that happened and I have some things to say.
uk.mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/id…
A familiar scene. Young white men act despicably, showing unfathomable racism, disrespect, perceived supremacy, entitlement, and all round assholery. Pretty standard stuff.
The response, too, is as predictable as the MAGA hats topping their high-and-tight, Hitler youth, rent-a-prick haircuts.

Some left-wing psychologists argue that conservatives opt out of academia because data in psychology overwhelmingly supports the liberal worldview...it's interesting that many of the liberal worldview "facts" are now dissipating under the new replication oriented science...
Conservatives are more prejudiced...BS: journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

So, this morning @BarbicanCentre @Create_London & @artsemergency launch a report bringing together academic work on specific aspects of inequality in cultural jobs barbican.org.uk/whats-on/event… & createlondon.org/event/panic201… The news is not good
In the report createlondon.org/wp-content/upl… @OrianBrook @markrt & I look at a variety of data to think about why the cultural sector in the UK is so exclusive. We focus on class, with some intersections of gender and ethnicity, but obviously thats not every form of inequality!
First off we show many cultural occupations are marked by significant inequalities of class, gender & ethnicity, pay gaps based on gender and class, and regional inequalities with London as a major problem for inequality in the sector

Now online: "Sexual Orientation and Social Attitudes" journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…

Sexual orientation is a strong and exceptionally consistent predictor of social attitudes. I conclude that sexuality should become a core factor in social scientific theory and empirical analysis.
Gender and race were historically marginal topics in sociology, but became core factors in the 1990s

Sexuality is still a marginal topic

Total # of papers in last 80 years in top generalist sociology journals:
Gender: 785
Race: 576
Sexuality: 25
Regardless of whether it's measured as partnering behavior or self-identification, sexuality is a strong predictor of political views.

In fact, sexuality is 2x as strong a divide on general political orientation as gender, race, and college:

So #musicleeds is finishing up. Was in Leeds yesterday, shame I couldn’t stay. Looks like a great day which, in the shadow of the ECoC withdrawal debacle, was a real achievement to make happen.
But with “Music Cities” again being discussed, I want to sound a note of caution. To make the case for some critical reflection. And perhaps to read some of the findings from the last two decades (plus!) of “Creative City” experiences.
So – I don’t normally do this – but here’s a #thread alert.

And hey, executive summary: more research needed. So maybe others can pitch in on that.
