I submitted a paper on Friday afternoon and got a desk rejection today. 🙃

@laiabalcells 1-and-3/4 hours would be a lot of time to dedicate to a paper that only takes 45 minutes to read. But I agree in principle. For a traditional panel, I'd learn a lot more from 5 published papers than from 5 works-in-progress. I'd likely go to more panels if that were the norm

Great point. I think we should do author-meet-critics on articles too.

I'm tempted to caption this first picture "centering the patriarchy" since you all deliberately put me front and center for comedic effect. As the second photo indicates, I'm not the *only* "boy" who studies victimhood :) Thanks for a great workshop @j_golubovic & @YessinkaH!!!

@_Jon_Green @klunztrujillo I kinda actually like the new term. I feel like we should adopt it in cases where something is both statistically significant and substantively meaningful. Of course, I'm not sure anything related this issue is substantively meaningful

@_cingraham It's actually a pretty valid empirical question. We hear all the time about "peer pressure" in middle/high school, but to what extent is this peer pressure explicit (e.g., cool kids tell you to do drugs) vs. implicit (e.g., you ask for drugs in order to impress/gain acceptance)?

In the minds of the DEA every high school party is patrolled by packs of greasers in leather jackets offering marihuana cigarettes to honor students saying "you're not a SQUARE are ya, Timmy?"

This is the weirdest drug myth that absolutely refuses to die. From childhood through adulthood I have *never* had issues declining drugs or booze or whatever.
DEA HQ@DEAHQ

Turning down drugs – especially if you’re at a party or hanging out with friends – can be a little awkward and uncomfortable. Struggling with what you can say? Get honest and anxiety-free ways to say “no.” #TipTuesday justthinktwice.gov/article/just-s…
