Hella random, but Fiery Cushman's action versus outcome framework has stuck with me ever since my first year in graduate school. I am not am morality scholar but I just referenced it (again) in a manuscript I am writing. It truly is the gift that keeps on giving in my thinking!

The genius of Jim Sidanius was (among other things) identifying social dominance orientation as a way that people approach the world.
You’ll feel less confused if you admit to yourself that some people don’t care about the suffering of others, and some people like it.
I am thankful that I got to talk about these papers in tandem. They feed off of each other by crafting a stronger framework for implementing EFFECTIVE equity efforts.
A pair of research papers co-authored by @merrickosborne.bsky.social, assistant professor at #CornellILR, examines why some DEI initiatives succeed while others fall short. The papers also suggest how to design more effective efforts. Read more: www.ilr.cornell.edu/news/researc...

New preprint alert! 🧵 In this commentary, we discuss why and how the study of affective experience and affect regulation would benefit from greater integration of diversity science--or, "the study of the interpretation and construction of human differences."

I debated writing this. It can feel tempting, upon encountering yet another instance of this administration’s racism, to let it be. How many ways can you say the same thing over and over again? And yet we have to write it down, if for nothing else, so those who come after us know we were against it.

I’ve seen so many people spreading the misinformation that PBS is shut down or is shutting down. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been shut down and PBS has been defunded. HOWEVER!!! PBS still exists. It is more important now than ever that you donate to PBS if you can.
