“Generations” are not real. They are not a useful way to understand society.
They are arbitrary. They don't let us predict how people work or act, they don’t explain skills differences, and they hurt our knowledge of how people change over time by obscuring age & cohort effects.

Equal parts jaw-dropping and heartbreaking, Love, Janessa sets out to track down Janessa Brazil, whose photo has become the bait for scores of catfishing scams. Does Janessa really exist & if so, is she a swindler or a victim?

Better late than never.... @TheAtlantic released its 'Top Pods of 2022' list in late Dec, when I was knee-deep in turkey and childrens.
*Four* of the series on that list came from my talented colleagues. I'm told this is 'banner year' status....

📍NOTA BENE—a “mild but faster” virus will often kill & harm more people than a virus that is slower & more severe. Even if just 2x more transmissible & 1/10 less deadly! ➡️Folks who call #Omicron “nature’s vaccine” need to stop the public endangerment. Figure by @GosiaGasperoPhD

The fall of Panjwai, emblematic of the deteriorating situation in Afghanistan, has been painful for many of us. For current and former CAF members and your families, here are my thoughts.

Like a scene out of Death of Stalin. Victory Day celebrations in Uzbekistan. This is hilarious.
На «Дне памяти» в Узбекистане военные не смогли определиться с тем, как выразить дань уважения гимну страны — отдать честь или приложить руку к сердцу. Выглядело это комично

Talk about a life well lived.
Jones lifeguarded for 64 summers. Met his wife at beach concession stand. Made over 1,000 ocean rescues. Taught local HS. Led New Years polar plunges. “He called it his annual physical,” his son says. “If it didn’t kill him, he’d be good for another year.” nytimes.com/2021/02/14/nyreg…
