One thing that's not gotten a lot of discussion on #AcademicTwitter is the supposed cyberattack that hit some of the major academic publishers earlier this summer. It's delayed publication and open access payments for some of our papers. This of course hits hard for those who

In 1912 in Baltimore, the Police served as census takers and collected both race and party for registered voters. The results are below. Only 47 Black Dems. Most White and Black Reps stayed with the GOP rather than move to TR and the Progressives. (Dec=declined to offer party.)

This is great.

In Major League Baseball, all the players have a “walk up song” — which plays when they approach home plate for an at-bat. Polisci should have walk up songs at conferences! What would be your walk-up song?

New in JPIPE: A. Cuttner, Ryan Hübert 🏳️‍🌈 & B Pablo Montagnes find via a formal model -- contrary to common belief -- that public meetings dominated by NIMBY opponents can increase housing supply by fostering compromise projects. nowpublishers.com/article/Detail…

New in JPIPE: Martin Vinæs Larsen & Niels Nyholt use a vignette survey experiment to explore why Danish citizens oppose the construction of apartment buildings and find limited evidence that this opposition stems from concerns over congestion or out- group bias. nowpublishers.com/article/Detail…
