No feminist who deserves the title will be supporting the intergenerational-bro ticket of Trump-Vance in 2024, Xochitl Gonzalez writes. "Democrats need to focus on all the other voters ... and reframe abortion as an issue that affects everyone."

In interviews, many potential employers ask questions about habits, skills, and ambitions—but “what they might really be looking for is a gut feeling of enthusiasm about you,” Arthur C. Brooks writes. https://lnkd.in/ebmkcpBQ Excitement about a job, though, goes both ways: You need to not only be good at eliciting enthusiasm in others, but also feel excited yourself. “To find the job that gives you the best chance of loving your work, you need to be attentive to your own gut sense,” Brooks continues. “These feelings contain a lot of information that you need but to which you might not have conscious access.” To best understand your gut response to an opportunity, there are specific feelings that you should be aware of: excitement, fear, and deadness. “The trick is to be able to tell which of them is most present in that inchoate gut feeling.” Researchers have found that for simple decisions, it doesn’t matter whether people use intuition or reasoning to arrive at a conclusion. But for complex decisions, a feeling-based determination is more than twice as likely as reasoning to lead to an optimal outcome. This finding suggests that “it doesn’t matter how you decide something straightforward, such as whether to take the one job available when you have been unemployed for a long time,” Brooks writes. “When you have multiple professional options, using your gut to evaluate the choices may be the best course.” “There is no way to get perfect information about a professional opportunity in advance,” Brooks continues. “But a reliable way to raise the odds of a good choice is to look for a lot of excitement, a little fear of danger, and as close to zero deadness as possible.” And evaluating potential professional opportunities is just one area of uncertainty where your gut intuition can be useful. “The same principle can apply to any complex life choice: Organize your thinking in such a way that you are paying systematic attention to your gut feelings,” Brooks writes. https://lnkd.in/ebmkcpBQ
