Matt Levendusky

This week, my latest book came out, Our Common Bonds. A short thread on the book: press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book…

Come work with me and my colleagues @APPCPenn! This is a great job for someone looking for research experience & wanting to use the Penn tuition credit wd1.myworkdaysite.com/recruiting/upe…

@sethbwarner My dataverse for Levendusky, Pope, and Jackman (JOP, 2008) will have it for the 1950s - 1990s. More recent years you can get from Dave Leip's Election Atlas.

Suppose I needed presidential vote by US House district, from the mid-20th century onward. Where would a scholar find such data?

Can't endorse this enough--@GlynnBoltman has produced an amazing podcast!

Thank you for getting this cleaned up so quickly!

@phl_cgoffice @StreetsPhila @PhiladelphiaGov : there is persistent illegal dumping on Cuthbert St between 12th and 13th. Streets department visited but it persists.

@gronke @BrendanNyhan With respect, that logic is profoundly flawed. At 65, YOU HAD YOUR SHOT. Move aside and make way for the next generation. True in Congress, true in business, true in academia.

@BrendanNyhan You may feel differently when you are over 65 and still feel like you can contribute

Gerontocracy rules everything around me

Sigh. *Just at Penn* there are multiple programs doing this, from @PennGSE to @PennFels to undoubtedly many others. Facts matter.

This is increasingly important: people need a benchmark to judge what an "A" means in different classes.

Thank you for removing this!

@PhiladelphiaGov @phl_cgoffice @ccdphila What is the plan to deal with this broken big belly can on 13th (btwn Market & Commerce)? It's been broken for over a month, I submitted a 311 ticket weeks ago. It blows trash everywhere, please remove it!

@namalhotra @JohnHolbein1 Or another choice, which shows the awe behind the annunciation: uffizi.it/en/artworks/an…

@namalhotra @JohnHolbein1 <eyeroll> Here's a real answer, David's The Coronation of Napoleon:

What's your favorite work of art?

@littleconnors Congratulations!!!

Around 11 years ago I had this wild dream to get my PhD and get a job in academia and maybe even get tenure?! It was wild. But then it happened 🥰. Realizing dreams sometimes takes a while and a bit of grit and patience (and luck), but it sure is worth it.

@dbroockman Congratulations!!
