The three genders? #bucld50

I'm sorry that this wasn't their first instinct AND I'm sorry that they didn't immediately throw the "agreements" in the fascists' faces but better late than never, I guess.

I taught a graduate level Cognition class this past semester using OECS for the course materials. 10/10 do recommend!

Well said. It was never about antisemitism. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/23/o...

At which point will we agree that we must consider going back to a hybrid option for academic conference attendance?

Everything feels awful but at least I can spend my next 60-ish hours refreshing Keith's page for Barkley updates.

English pronouns always out here catching strays when there are much more elaborate systems that people could be worried about 😆

The Onion should buy Elsevier next

all jokes aside, we shouldn't forget the real Reason for the Season

Apparently when I agreed to review for #CogSci2024 I neglected to list my expertise. I see words I know but not how I understand they go together. …I have some apologetic emails to write.

IRB: do everything in your power to protect the confidentiality of participants. Controller’s Office: we’re going to need the name, SSN, mother’s maiden name, and first car of everyone who receives research participation fees. 🙃

Oh hey, this one was written by me (and my awesome co-authors)!

Today a child study participant told me that my prizes were boring and I should do something to make it up to her. In case you needed a reminder that academia requires a thick skin.

Feeling the #BUCLD fomo, as I take a desperately needed travel break this weekend and miss my first one in nearly a decade. Thanks for the semi-hybrid option!

I received an email this morning that signs off with “with sunshine,” and I want to know where they got this optimism from.

Hey #AcademicSky, what’s with faculty scheduling exams for a lot longer than their class period in the middle of the semester? I’m having to find alts for class participation for students who will miss due to exams in *other* classes. Feel disrespectful to the student and to me.

I will never get over leaf changing time in the Northeast.

Another great quote from an academic article: “Brain patterns composing an episode are often claimed to be measurable in principle, in terms of information processing or whatever.” (Pereira & Ricke, 2009)

Whose feral child is running around in the dirt with one shoe on? Oh wait. It’s mine.

Tortilla and I feel similarly about tomorrow being Monday.

You know we’re off to a good start when the first faculty meeting of the semester comes with a reminder not to name-call.

Friends, my research group is looking for someone to share their knowledge on SES constructs in research with us in a group meeting. If this is you or someone you know, msg me! Deaf and/or ASL signers especially welcome.

Arnold does not seem to care that fall classes start tomorrow and I am not ready.
