Yes. In a constant discourse with students to keep methods as simple as possible and think about the big-picture questions and what can be concluded.

I blogged about how bad the job market is, and how there is no reason to believe it'll get better anytime soon. I'm a real joy to have at cocktail parties. gensokyopost.substack.com/p/the-post-p...

End of month #psjminfo report. We're a few jobs short of a 100 TT positions. Which is about the same as last year (2025-26). So it seems the market isn't getting worse... However as recent as 23-24, we had nearly twice as many postings by this point. www.politicalsciencejobs.org/job-listings

CONCACAF have also come out against this. They could get together with UEFA and organise a tournament that's about the football, not funneling funds to the Trump crime family.

UEFA is considering a boycott of FIFA tournaments, including the World Cup and the Club World Cup Because the non-profit FIFA wants to hand over influence to private investors There are 55 members in UEFA

UEFA Considering Boycott of FIFA Tournaments in Brewing Feud

UEFA is considering a boycott of FIFA events, according to a person familiar with the matter, in a seismic rift between the most powerful governing bodies of football.

In 1925 Benito Mussolini declared that he alone was in charge of Italy and could do with it whatever he liked. In 2026 Gianni Infantino declared that he alone owned the World Cup and could do with it whatever he liked. Fascism never changes.

FIFA are supposed to be a non profit body that manage football. THEY DO NOT OWN IT.After the heavily contrived world cup finals they proved they are crooked. Now they want to sell off football to whoever pays most. As a non profit organization they want to ruin our game for profit. SHAME ON THEM.

Something I've been meaning to do is look at how many R1 PSCI departments actually diversified their curriculums after BLM/George Floyd protests. I remember there was a moment when everyone was hiring in REP, but the last couple of years saw a backlash. So I'm unclear what the net change was.

Happy to say we've got presenters lined up from at least 14 states and over 30 different institutions! Always great to see how much the REP field has grown. I remember when the field was composed of a handful of programs.

Thanks to all who submitted papers to the Boulder PRIEC. I'll be sending out acceptances this weekend, but we should be able to accomodate everyone. We look forward to hosting. 🤠
