  3. A quotation from Joseph Addison

    We should esteem virtue though in a foe, and abhor vice though in a friend.

    Essay (1711-12-08), The Spectator, No. 243

  4. I don't know about democracy, but something definitely stinks.

    "..The referees are doing their best to call the game as fair and as proper as they possibly can. And all you can do is go out there and play the game that you love as hard as you can and live with the results..I feel like I've just continued to play the game, and I just try to win. And whatever happens kind of happens." - Patrick Mahomes, smug twat.

  5. The sheer amount of interpersonal drama involved in my supposedly professional environment feels more like a sitcom or drama series than a work setting. It’s staggering how misapplied our discipline has become. Or maybe it’s always been this way and I simply haven’t caught on until now? Either way, the net productivity of my team is near zero and whatever we get out of it is so hard fought for it takes an extraordinary amount of meetings to achieve “alignment”. 90% in useless meetings vs 10% doing the work. It’s staggering. #work #WorkLifeBalance #favoritism #productivity

  6. Favoritism does harm, but I strongly believe it does much _less_ harm if it's openly acknowledged as the way things work.

    Being open about favoritism creates a more level playing field:

    - It tells people outside the favorite zone that to "win" they need to somehow get inside.

    - It tells people inside the favorite zone that them "winning" doesn't mean they're special, just that they're favorites.

  7. Many spread blood libel about Jews on here, Reddit, Twitter, etc

    These are the sort of comments i receive when i ask for sources on their daily blood libel

    Reporting doesn't do anything as we Jews are inferior, apparently

    If they said same lies about other minorities, their accounts would be banned pronto

  11. Great research about Academic #favoritism at work: insider bias in 🇹🇷 Turkish national journals:

    :doi: doi.org/10.1007/s11192-022-043

    "The findings show that insiders not only publish in large numbers in their affiliated institutions’ journals, but also do so at significantly faster speeds. Specifically, 4938 (29.79% of) papers have at least one insider author, and they are accepted 41.5 days faster than the average outsider submission".

  12. Hi, I'm #ElizabethWarren and I'm a fraud.

    I promised to go after #BigTech last year, but now that my tribe is in #power thanks to #favoritism from #Fakebook, #Birdsite, and #YouScrewed, I'd like to repeat false #rhetoric about #bitcoin, the only thing short of a functional #democracy that gives #powerToThePeople.

    I zuck (-I mean, suck)
