Currently on a road trip in a rented Dodge Caravan and y’all whoever designed this car needs to delete their account
How do you have the Norman doors version of A/C controls? Why do these dials look like buttons? Why am I still trying to press these dials?! THEY LOOK LIKE BUTTONS, BUT AREN’T!

1/ Many disconcerting things here: 1. That third-party/media reporting may be more effective and trustworthy than university HR or TIX offices; 2. That cautionary whisper networks may have some degree of selection bias on who is or is not informed about whom to avoid;
2/ 3. The use of “x told y person within z amount of time” as proof of the veracity or plausibility of harassment claims (not all cases have this, but those cases are still equally valid); 4. That double-digit victim numbers seems to be critical mass for “university response;”
3/ Dominguez’ repulsive behavior went on for nearly FOUR DECADES (1979-2015)? That’s far too long for those at the top to have been oblivious

2/ I presented this paper by @msalganik, @peterdodds, @duncanjwatts (2006) in a doctoral-level methods course on network analysis at UCLA. Authors are highly respected, paper has over a thousand citations:
3/ It would’ve been a disservice to Salganik et al (2006) if slide titles weren’t used for punny references to pop song titles or the music biz:

1/ I rarely comment on the gun control debate. I support reasonable, effective gun control. Yet, some liberals seem all too happy to dogpile on tribalistic virtue-signalling via backhanded insults to law-abiding gun owners:
2/ Many of these gun owners (my rural family included) also support gun law reform. Lobbing petty insults betrays: (a) dearth of knowledge on guns/current gun law; (b) refusal to see gun ownership as part of a valid cultural identity; (c) rabid desire to dehumanize “those people”
3/ All of these are equally problematic and divisive. So as a Mossberg 500-loving, blue state-residing, liberal Southerner who wants to see legislative reform of gun control, I say to other liberals – stop it
