Men's median earnings rose at twice the rate of women's median earnings in part because men are overrepresented in high-wage jobs and women in low-wage jobs. It's not only being paid less for the same work; it's that class inequality and gender inequality are inseparable.
The gender wage gap just widened for the first time in 20 years
Yep, you read that right. axios.com/2024/09/11/gender-…

I need you all to know that since speaking up about women being afraid to vote for Harris, I get messages every day from phone bankers and canvassers that this is happening and women are afraid to vote because of what their husband may do/say. This is voter intimidation.

Dr. Semmelweis was institutionalized & beaten to death after discovering hand washing between autopsy & delivery room prevented sepsis.

finishing up my intro to investigative reporting syllabus and I just need to say: not enough people know about the Sun-Times buying and operating a bar in Chicago in 1978, writing the best lede of all time, and then getting shut out of the Pulitzers cause Ben Bradlee was big mad

The opportunity to explain observable things to people demonstrating an unwillingness to observe them is not as attractive an invitation as some people seem to think.

The US has a stunning and horrifying statistic - more children died last year from gun violence than police officers and military service people combined.
Read that again.

It was around a year ago that I made a relatively anodyne comment about Depp’s abuse of Heard and the Depp-defense swarm was immediate and intense in ways that remind me most immediately of the defense swarm for rosy cheeked killer Kyle Rittenhouse.
This interview @kathrynfiona did with a former Depp supporter is really powerful and worth a read embedded.substack.com/p/she-…
