Thanks to @jdmichler my @UAZ_AREC profile is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, I finally updated my CV, and I migrated my personal website! economics.arizona.edu/person/april-a…

Amazing presentations and discussions on teaching at #aaea2023 from the AAEA Teaching, Learning & Communications (TLC) track sessions! aaea.org/membership/sec… A thread of innovative teaching practices and program developments👇 1/n @AAEA_Economics

It is really really important for people to understand that the sky-high rates of depression and anxiety in economics departments are not at all the same thing as the inclination to write cruel and bigoted things on an anonymous internet forum

@Josh_Merfeld @LianaBrooks Huzzah! Congratulations, Josh!

@LianaBrooks I get promoted to associate professor tomorrow. That’s good I guess.

@john_voorheis @jt_kerwin @etjernst Gratchette and Shar-LOT really got me while I was in MI

When I hear a Midwesterner pronounce Milwaukee

@jt_kerwin @etjernst Mih-wau-key. Native speaker here. I don't think the L gets pronounced 🤷

@etjernst Wait how am I supposed to be saying this

Delta "Baby Ban" option

The National Parks Service actually subsidizes turning the parks into a traffic sewer. If you, partner, and two kids want to walk in, bicycle, or take a bus into Yosemite, you pay $80. But if you drive your SUV in, you only pay $35. Completely backwards!

@FishEcon This was the first album I ever got. For my 8th birthday. I guess it explains a lot 😂

@ThatAkhilRao @cjwich I thought you were living in the future and all along you were living in the distant past!

One of the perks of my job: getting to interact with great students. Also, when in Rome, or in this case St. Louis, hold a club meeting underneath the arch.

Kudos to Reviewer #3, who closed w/ this: "Praise for the authors: I try to end all of my reviews with areas of the paper I really liked because I know reviews can be hard to read. So here are a few areas of the paper where I thought the writing really shined." 1. __ 2. __ 3. __

I was accepted at CU, but similarly without promise of funding (worked itself out after a semester). After mastering out of CU (🤫) I got into more than a bunch of other programs. Careers often aren't linear. That's okay. It only feels like failure until you prove them wrong.

@Josh_Merfeld @cameron_pfiffer Nopity nope nope nope!!!

@cameron_pfiffer “What fertilizer did you use?” “Cameron.”

I would love to be composted when I die

@Wootenomics I'm sorry, is that a capybara-rhinoceros chimera?!

The animal that artificial intelligence thinks best represents an economics professor:

Accepted!!! Onto inspections...

Put an offer in on a house. Feeling excited, nervous, and full of anticipation
