Love the new energy of the place, but feel I should start to curate my feed more. I am especially interested in increasing my awareness of new research and, for my own sanity, could do with a bit less everyday political commentary. Given my field, that is hard. Any advice on how to do that ?

Are you interested in political trust? And whether it matters? I've a paper accepted at Political Behaviour which looks to summarise this work empirically. osf.io/7z64t
