For every woman at the director level who got promoted in 2021, two women directors left. Causes: "work culture, microaggressions and being overworked and under-recognized." 43% of women leaders said they were burned out; 31% of men @bailey_schulz

It doesn't matter if you are a woman who supports the patriarchy. Men will still interrupt and talk over you.

Lawyer goes into how the computer simulation itself can be biased, and that somehow bothers Alito and Barrett into talking.
Barrett started talking first but Alito interrupted her and just kept talking till she stopped.

Despite the name, brain fog isn’t a nebulous umbrella term. It’s a disorder of executive function—the mental skills that inc. focusing attention, holding info in mind, & blocking distractors. Without that foundation, one's cognitive edifice collapses. 3/ theatlantic.com/health/archi…

Update: the red flag warning is lifting and they’re reducing the evacuation to level 1 (ready) for my family’s area of Timberline. Winds could of course change, but for now, so much relief and thanks to the crews out there keeping people and property safe.

Diversity is smarter than homogeneity.
New data on 6.6 million science papers in all 45 subfields of medicine: mixed-gender teams generate more novel and influential work than same-gender teams.
Similarity breeds groupthink. Variety fuels deeper reflection and broader learning.

It’s Labor Day, so here’s a little thread on emotional labor: work that’s done almost exclusively by women and nearly always goes unnoticed.
And yes, men do all kinds of labor too. Congratulations. My recognizing that here is emotional labor performed on your behalf.

Of respondents in a survey 1,986 said they were generally harassment and 358 sexually harassment. I don’t know what those percentages are, but those numbers are way too high. Full stop.

In the US fed govt, women hold just 29% of 335K STEM jobs (2019 data) & 26% of supervisory / leadership roles. On avg, women earn $4,300 less in research jobs than men. @cdwoolston

The realities of abortion bans
26 Aug 2022
States with at least one abortion ban on the books have the worst economic outcomes for women & families. Their leaders "are not interested in improving economic and health policies that support women and the children these women already have."

Study of 6,000 US freelancers finds men charge 48% more per hour than women. The pay discrepancy was broadest in admin, IT, and customer services. DevOps engineers had the largest gap; men charge 3x as much as women. @CarringtonYork @_constantjo

Keep those masks on peeps! It’s now been proven that the air filtration on planes is not as good as most of y’all think.
10 Jul 2022
Boeing study shows that on an airplane with HEPA filtration, particles transferred between a cougher and breather are about the same as separation of 2 meters in a conference room. Wear a mask!

“This is the patriarchal vision of privacy: that men have dominion over their wives, children, and households, and the state may not interfere in that private sphere. It's the definition of privacy that dominated American law for two centuries.” 🧵
8 Jul 2022
Yes it's very ironic that everyone is crowing about Brett Kavanaugh's right to privacy right after he stripped women of ours. But it's not new. The idea of domestic & sexual privacy as an exclusively male privilege has a long history in US law culture.
