Article for next Decoding Academia
Added 2023-02-09 02:47:57 +0000 UTCAs per Matt's selection, we are going to examine the concept of Bullshit as applied to the corporate world/generic workplace!
For anyone who would like to play along the relevant paper is attached exploring the "psychometric properties of the Organizational Bullshit Perception Scale (OBPS)".
Imagine if James Lindsay had read this paper instead of the Feminist Glaciology one, what a different world it could be.
P.S.
We might also discuss this one: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S000768132030001X?via%3Dihub

Damn, I'd actually bookmarked a synopsis of Graeber to bring up. But then Chrs distracted me and I forgot... I think the concept of bullshit jobs is interesting. Ofc, full credit should go to HHGTTG and 'the B Ship' for discovering the phenomena

2023-02-09 04:28:42 +0000 UTCJust saving chatgpt the added cycles… “Feminist glaciology is an interdisciplinary field that considers the relationship between ice and gender from a feminist perspective. It critiques the ways in which traditional glaciology has been dominated by masculine perspectives and seeks to uncover the ways in which gender, as well as other forms of social inequality, influence our understanding of ice, its impacts, and the communities affected by it. Feminist glaciology is rooted in the idea that knowledge is not neutral, but rather is shaped by the perspectives and experiences of those who produce it. It argues that by neglecting the role of gender, traditional glaciology has ignored important dimensions of the relationships between ice, people, and the environment. Feminist glaciology seeks to challenge and transform the traditional focus of glaciology by incorporating the experiences and perspectives of people who have been marginalized, such as women, indigenous peoples, and people from the Global South. It aims to create more inclusive and equitable knowledge about ice and its impacts, and to ultimately improve decision-making about the future of ice and the people and environments it affects.”
