Why do people resort to the brutal measure of killing their own daughters, sisters, or cousins when they feel their family honour is tarnished? @aksoyundan.bsky.social and @aronszekely.bsky.social offer novel insights based on game theory and data on honour killings & honour norms.

Un soneto para buscar trabajo
de copy creativo (publicista),
o de dramaturgo, o de guionista,
me he propuesto escribir, de arriba abajo.

Al ser autónomo, también barajo
combinar curros, cual malabarista,
y cobrarlos a treinta días vista
(soy poco realista, pero majo).

Aparte de ripios más bien catetos,
también sé escribir anuncios de prensa,
spots, cuñas, social media, folletos…

Toco más palos, la lista es extensa;
puedo con todo: me gustan los retos.
¿Buscas un redactor? Mándame un mensa.

Shifting research focus comes with the risk of reduced impact An analysis of millions of scientific papers and patents shows that the further a researcher or inventor moves from their previous work, the less cited their latest work will be.

Line graph titled "Public opinion on the 'Most Important Problem,' 1950 to 1979." The y-axis shows the percentage of respondents citing a given issue as the most important problem, ranging from 0% to over 60%. The x-axis spans years 1950 to 1980, with vertical dashed lines marking presidential elections from 1960 to 1972.

Four colored lines represent different issue categories:

Foreign Affairs (f): Dark blue line, dominant until mid-1960s, peaks around 1965, then declines steadily.
Economy (e): Yellow-green line, declines from 30% in 1950s to below 20% in 1960s, then spikes dramatically around 1974 to over 60%.
Civil Rights (c): Purple line, nearly flat at low levels until a sharp peak around 1963–1965, then falls sharply.
Social Control (s): Teal line, low and flat until a sharp rise in late 1960s, peaking around 1970–1972.
Two red arrows highlight peaks: one for "civil rights" around 1963–1965, and one for "social control" around 1970–1972. Scatterplot points with letters ("f", "e", "c", "s") show individual data points used to estimate trend lines. Source: Omar Wasow (@owasow), with URL to research: http://j.mp/agenda-seeding

In 1963, Bernard Cohen wrote the press may not tell people what to think, but it does tell them what to think *about*.

Similarly, in 1960s protests and media made civil rights salient.

All to say, politicians may struggle to shape mass opinion, but they can influence which issues are salient.

1/5. Deeply troubling.

At the risk of getting lost in words, a humble thread.

Willful autonomy and centralized authority are in apparent contraposition among three distinct branches of government and fifty individual self-governing entities as well as millions of individuals with agency.
