Is there a tool or plug-in for Chrome that automatically indicates my preference to turn off data-sharing on all websites by default? The privacy-related pop-ups are annoying.

Tennessee @GovBillLee hasn't had time yet to tweet his thoughts and prayers for Covenant School, but when he does, remind him that this is exactly why police and citizens opposed the permitless carry bill he signed into law at a gun maker's factory in 2021. #tnleg

@econwithdustin I’m working on an email asking you to rewrite your key competencies reflection.

@Wootenomics @BelmontUniv Colin & Kara Smith (@ParadoxofValue) have been on this for a while. I'm doing my 1st linked stats section this semester. As I tell students "the love letters of economics are written in the language of statistics." It's a great topic to link together.

One of my favorite conferences is the Southern Econ Annual Meeting. It helps that they hold it in really cool places like Ft Lauderdale. Follow along for some of the sessions I'm sitting in this weekend instead of sitting on the beach! #SEA2022

The most high-paying college majors are in engineering and economics, but that isn’t usually because employers want engineers & economists. Instead, this paper finds those majors offer the best bundle of social & organizational skills that many jobs need. nber.org/papers/w29605

@econwithdustin The pics of my nieces are 7-8 years old, but I love the picture. ❤️

What's the rule on family pictures in faculty offices? Mine are about 5 years out of date and the infant pictured in my office is starting elementary school in the fall. Am I supposed to wait longer?

@econwithdustin Was your new profile pic taken in advance of your planned Trans-Antarctic expedition to study the micro economy of the south pole? I thought we turned down that summer research grant.

It’s disappointing that John Lott’s paper on 2020 vote fraud is forthcoming in *Public Choice*. Justin Grimmer and I wrote a response and asked the editor to reconsider. I want to explain our position and speculate about how this all happened.

I’m hoping no student punches me during class today. Then again, I would never make a joke about a woman’s appearance. 😐
