Hey @econtwitter mastodon! Not quite sure how this works but wanted to go ahead and re-introduce myself on here, since I know we’re all trying to move over here now. I’m an aspiring #economist interested in #econometrics and #education #policy here in the US and abroad! I wrote my MSc dissertation on the varying impacts of state-level merit based aid, and currently work as an RA at Brown’s Annenberg Institute for School Reform. Id love to get connected with some more econ peeps!

I'm Michael Stepner, and I'm an economist studying the relationship between health and economic inequality. I'm most excited about work that reveals how public policy can improve the health and financial security of low-income populations. Professional details are posted on my website: https://michaelstepner.com
My favourite activities are:
- catering to the whims of referees
- catering to the whims of the LaTeX compiler
- catering to the whims of a giant rabbit named The Cheat

The next time you go to a funeral bring someone to pose as a lawyer and have them whisper in your ear anytime someone says something to you.
Don't explain why.

When you consider that much of the new data on bivalent booster protection is based on comparison with people who have had multiple shots and boosters, and infections, it's particularly impressive

Pol∩Phil∩Econ = Public Policy
I'm turning the slides for my PPE course into a book of lecture notes, including some background text. I'm claiming (as in the headline) that public policy is at the intersection of the PPE disciplines. Implicitly this suggests that sociology, anthropology, psychology etc aren't in that intersection. Is this claim defensible? @kjhealy @jacobtlevy

Musical satirist Tom Lehrer, who wrote some of the funniest songs in the 1950s and 1960s, has announced that all of his music is now in the public domain: "In short, I no longer retain any rights to any of my songs.
So help yourselves, and don’t send me any money" https://tomlehrersongs.com/
