That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

I knew this speculative #feminist methodologies class was going to be incredibly eye-opening. "Dear Ijeawele" (Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie) cuts right to the heart of things, including me and the things I wish my mother had known when I was a child.

These rejections are starting to feel personal 😠

INBOX: 350 US companies — including some of the biggest (Microsoft, Nvidia, Apple), with collective market cap of nearly $10 trillion — have recently stated their commitments to diversity & inclusion. @nancylevinestearns.bsky.social www.impactivize.org/dei-employer...

I can’t recommend this enough. UNBREAKING, a new project from @lizneeley.bsky.social & co, documents & explains our many concurrent institutional collapses. It’s beautifully executed work, full of intellectual & moral clarity. 3 pages are live, more will come. It’s SO GOOD, & I learned so much.

Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. This week I added my 5th teaching award nomination to my CV (which I am really humbled and honored by because it's a student-led nomination process)... along with my 5th notification that I was not selected for said award.

This is definitely all Maddi's doing, but I'm stoked to be even a small part of it. Her and Emily were great to work with!

We @5calls.org have an app/website to help you do this! Just put up an explainer with phone numbers and call script if you don't know what to say: 5calls.org/issue/omb-fe...

I don't want to overstate this, but being in DC for #UERU and #AACU conferences feels a little like resistance. "Reaffirming Higher Ed's Public Purpose"

Apparently I can write everything except my book. I co-authored this piece on teaching practices derived from UDL + why this is a disability justice issue. Preprint doi.org/10.31234/osf... #psychologicalscience #SoTL #eddev #UDL #disability @gernsbacherlab.bsky.social is the only one on this app.

I teach methods in psych. How do I gently ask my students "is this what a results section looks like in any of the papers you've read?" (or in the examples or the how-to videos I posted?) I'm not being snarky. How do I tell them - model your writing after other good writing!

Is having a FT job, teaching a class online, taking a class online, and writing a book too much to do at one time? Yes. Am I doing it? Not well, lol. Book words since Sept = 0. Will I do it again next term? Also yes. Tell me about all you're doing! :)

MIT is hiring its first Executive Director of the Institute Community and Equity Office. We need strong leadership here. See link for more details: careers.peopleclick.com/careerscp/cl...

Blocked a few folks this morning. At least they make it easy to tell who they are.

Does anyone by chance have a reference for the process of theory testing and development? Maybe @devezer.bsky.social ? I'm trying to argue that a basic tenet of theory testing is that it is incremental (ie isolates one feature to test at a time) #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky

one of the reasons bluesky works differently is because early users waged a successful fight to get the devs to prioritize safety features to protect communities at risk as a result bluesky now has a suite of controls that i think are unmatched on social media here’s the list, lmk what i’ve missed

I'm so excited. It's NPR Books We Love Day! Books We Love is NPR's interactive reading guide —fully indexed, categorized and handpicked by NPR staff and freelance writers like me. I wrote about nine of my most beloved 2024 releases. apps.npr.org/best-books/#...

they could report about this, but it wouldn’t fit their scripted culture war narrative.

If the idea that this is the best I'll ever feel, pain-wise, makes me cry, please convince me I'm not being dramatic in telling my doctor I don't think I'm better. Feeling a bit hopeless and guilty and ashamed and scared. #disabilitysky

If I can add, FIRE's pressure campaign to get universities to adopt "institutional neutrality" is actually a violation of the very principles of institutional neutrality they claim to promote. www.insidehighered.com/opinion/blog...

Any #AcademicWriting folks out there have advice for how to list a book you're authoring on a CV? You have a contract for the book, but you're still in drafting stages. Thanks! #AcademicSky #HigherEd #PsychSciSky

What? Is this real? Pinch me! #POD24

To all conference attendees everywhere, please never decline a mic. The loudness of a voice is not the only thing that makes it intelligible and so some of us cannot hear you regardless of how well you project. This is my 11th year of tweeting this plea at various conference #POD24

shortbread from the airport in Dublin is better than any I've had in the US

It could happen here, it could always happen anywhere under some conditions. And it sounds too pat to be true, but it is: when it doesn’t happen, it’s because people up and down the chains of power, ordinary people and officials alike, stood up for their neighbors and said not here, not today

My husband's response to me telling him about a necklace I want. I adore him.

YES! This is an annoying workaround but I don't want AI search results.

omg omg omg omg omg I just convened an absolute dream team of authors to collab on a review of UDL and its implications for teaching. I cannot wait for this whole thing to come together. Yes, we are all women. Yes, some of us identify as #disabled. Yes, #accessibility matters.

Ok folks hit me up with citations for UDL or adjacent empirical research #disability #education #accessibility #highered #learning

I'm...aghast...at this take

If you've been considered for a #POD innovation award and would be willing to share your poster with me, could you please let me know? Would love to see some examples.

Writing letters of rec feels so high stakes and I absolutely hate doing it*. *I know I should say no more often, but especially my online students have no one else willing to help. I at least have coached them through difficult classes.

This is such an important point that I think many quant ppl struggle to grasp. It took me years after a heated debate with a sociologist to understand what he'd meant when asking me where my feminism was in my research. What we study, why/how we study/analyse it ... it's all choices. #psychscisky

@thetattooedprof.bsky.social is a gift to acacdemia

I conducted a registered report replication + extension in grad school and the entire process was amazing. Why? Because of how much I had to think through the research design at the outset.
