I searched for one and failed. I bet my wife would've found it! 😔

Great opportunity to demonstrate team work with the closeline though. A couple that wrestles together stays together 😂 pic.twitter.com/j1q7yBXGHm

Personal displays of affection are much easier to hate in theory than in practice. Love will have you sneaking in a hand touch, shoulder bump and the occasional loving glance and smile.

I wasn't expecting to actually agree, but yeah, I see what you're saying. That's some of that good real love right there.

GREAT WOMAN OF MATHEMATICS: DR. GLADYS MAE WEST, born 1930. Pioneer responsible for the mathematics behind GPS. Growing up in rural Virginia, she saw how hard the lives of her parents, a tobacco farm and railroad worker, respectively, were and determined to find a way 1/8 #GWOM pic.twitter.com/QXHmRBtioM

My wife watches that show... ☹️
I think it's terrible, but she enjoys the stupid drama of it.

This stat seems more the most recent common ancestor rather than the identical ancestors point, which is estimated around 15k years ago.

So to put that simply, IQ between rich white Americans and poor white Americans will have different genetic influences. People often misread genetic influences like "genes that cause".

Heck, I just saw a paper today about how even within what's considered the same population, you have confounders that have to be controlled for when interpreting genetic influences. A simple example is socioeconomic status.

It's a truism. It's a point frequently made by geneticists on GWAS and PGS. Heck, it's a point underlying heritability as well.
If you take any two populations with different environments, measure any trait among them, you will find different genetic influences underlying it.

@smaceachern2 just published with him, and has stated before that Reich is being frequently misrepresented. Other geneticists have read the same section and can see both it's obviousness and it's not agreeing with what is being claimed he said.
But I don't know who you are...

Other than putting the keys on the roof, that's pretty standard behavior for black men when faced with the police. It's the safest, for us.

I know you're a different person than the one I asked, but you don't see the difference between what he says and what that guy claims him saying?

Yes, free speech doesn't really apply for employees. I do think the academic freedom thing is strange enough and weirdly abused at times (both to agree and to disagree with a firing or refusal to fire).

To be clear though, I don't have a line in public spaces, including even terrorist sympathizers.
In private spaces, I think the line is what the owners and inhabitants of the space say, and what social consequences they are willing to pay to say it.

You already decided in your first tweet though, where you said you were okay with David Irving and Franklin Graham being denied platforms.
It's hard to draw a line at Franklin Graham and then not see that line then including many labeled as (overt) X-ist.

This is an unfortunate publishing decision. No one should turn to Saira Rao of all people for behavioral advice.
