That's it! Deadline for #ICA26 submissions are closed. For those scholars who made the deadline, those who missed it, and those who didn't even know it was happening: You're doing a good job and your hair looks nice. Looking forward to seeing you all at @icahdq.bsky.social in Cape Town!

@adrianmeier.bsky.social turned me on to "jingle" and "jangle" fallacies while at #MediaPsych, giving me some verbiage for things we talk about more frequently. There's a fuller look at these phenomena here: www.frontiersin.org/journals/psy...

Americans will go to any lengths to have to avoid using the metric system. "How big is Hurricane Melissa? Well, it's approximately one central-Illinois wide."

TIL the word "tsundere," meaning someone who initially presents a harsh, cold, or hostile exterior but gradually reveals a warmer, softer side over time. This felt like it would have been a useful word to know long ago.

Periodic reminder of the Media Bias Chart; and the importance of not using non-news sources to consider the news. Thanks, @adfontesmedia.bsky.social!

Please join the Communication & Technology Division for the #ICA26 Welcome Meeting and Q&A. If you have questions about submitting to #ICA26 or just want to meet members of the executive committee, please join us! Wed Oct 15, 1400 UTC or Fri Oct 17, 0800 UTC tinyurl.com/CATOct2025 to join

This seems like a big pile of bullpucky, administrative nonsense, and possibly retributional action on behalf of Cleveland State University.

1/3: Here's the thing that's too nuanced to be discussed in the agora. Science relies on open dialogue and rigorous testing of ideas. You have an alternate hypothesis? Great! Test it and show the evidence to peers. That can be paradigm shifting, and adds to our intellectual diversity.

That's quite the chart annotation. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

"a growing trend of young women writing frustrated pop hits about love and dating." Ah yes. "Young women" pop artists have long been known for the absence of songs about love and dating in their discographies. Thank heavens the drought is over. Seriously, @npr.org ?

"[W]e felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive." But which ones, Disney? Which specific ones were insensitive, and in what ways? Without being specific, the statement here is toothless and inept.

@icamobile.bsky.social always does such a tremendous job of adding value and going beyond the 5 days of the convention to help its members. Good details on their division's activities in the upcoming months.

I'm not much into country music; but Jenna Davis' "FBI" isn't a terrible summation of my research agenda: www.youtube.com/watch?v=thn7...

I think I've finally hit on why @atlairport.bsky.social is so terrible. For all its bragging about being the worlds busiest passenger airport, it doesn't act like it: everything's always understaffed, escalators and seating areas too few, and absolutely nothing to do. 1/2

Wrapping up @mepsy.bsky.social's #MePsych25. It was a great time at @unidue.bsky.social, filled with friends, scholarship, and good chats over coffee and other drinks. It's amazing to have fit all this in to just a few days; and I'll be weeks unpacking the thoughts and inspiration from it.

Just heard an analogy re: considering "lake" as good/bad that said better in 2 min than I've managed to do in years of writing on it. #MePsych25

For 16 years, this group of scholars have made Germany feel like home. Couldn't be more grateful to all of them.

@jesstpiotrowski.bsky.social just taught a bunch of scholars "Banana Chicken" in the most elegantly scholarly way possible.

Evoking @icahdq.bsky.social fun, #MePsy25 just got to experience a nationwide alert test mid-session. Speakers rolled with it like pros.

Reason 2,463,092 I love attending @mepsy.bsky.social : I get reminded that everyone here is MUCH smarter than me, and thus i get to learn so much @ymeier.bsky.social is presenting really thoughtful work on effect sizes.

I've been using the wrong hashtag for #MePsy25?? @katypearce.bsky.social must be so disappointed in me. .... #MediaPsych25

Always wonderful to be at #MediaPsych. Thank you to @germanneubaum.bsky.social and his @unidue.bsky.social team who arranged such a strong conference!

I..... I'm proud of a Governor of Illinois. What is this feeling?

Success! It's now available at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipDf... And that the thumbnail is just 40% Lee's face is all the more perfect!

Interesting position to take, given the 'COVID vaccine policies' were put in place under the first Trump administration.

#ICA26 submission protip: Even though #ICA24 taught me what an interrobang is (and how to use it), you may *not* use it as a character in a submission title for #ICA26. @icahdq.bsky.social

Literally the premise of "Idiocracy."

I'm sorry. The #Sooners play WHO their first two games this year???!??

Best part about a land-grant university will forever be the ice cream from our own dairy

Hey, @icahdq.bsky.social! Following a terrific #ICA25, do we know when & where the 75th anniversary retrospective video displayed at the opening plenary will be available?

Proud to be taking the helm of @jmp-hogrefe.bsky.social , and I'll work to keep turnaround times quick, as I know timely (yet quality) feedback and decisions are critical to so many of our contributors.

Go ahead and take away my Michigander card; but it's time to regulate big vehicles for private use. When *I* can be invisible to drivers, they're lethal in neighborhoods and school zones. Please also see:

Just stayed at the #Hyatt in Denver; and had real problems with their call center customer service. It wasn't until I got transferred to the actual hotel I got effective interaction and results. Apparently, Hyatt will continue to be LESS helpful. viewfromthewing.com/hyatt-just-r...

#ica25 travel update: @atlairport.bsky.social continues to suck. Hard.

#ICA25 was a blast. Good scholarship, tremendous colleagues, divine inspiration, and an unexpected tailgate--the hallmarks of a successful convention. Can't wait to do it all again in 351 days in Cape Town.

And with that, #ica25 draws to a close. (With an even trippier conference already dancing on her corpse.) let's do it all again in Cape Town for #ica26!

ICA at its best 🌈 💕 The entire Executive Committee handing out ice creams 🍦 #ica25 #icacommunity

Seeing great presentations from early career scholars makes me even more excited for the future of the field. Great job, Tina! #ica25

Such a great presidential slate. @jesstpiotrowski.bsky.social told me last night that the real winner of the election will be ICA, and she was spot on right.

If your international flight is canceled because of closed airspace, both Hyatt hotels will honor the #ICA25 rate. Visit the front desk to extend your stay. If you are local and can provide a room at home to a colleague, please post on the Link.

Slowly but surely, the transition is happening. #ica25

When your conference hasn't quiiiiite yet started.

When I get downtown I’m following @katypearce.bsky.social’s pro-tip to take the free MallRide to the #ica25 hotel.

Looking at exhibit listings for an Air & Space museum, the "Replica" in this listing made me giggle. Like...yeah, we know it's not the original.

I finally got around to binging #SupermanAndLois. It again demonstrates #DCComics has amazing IP that can be conveyed to the screen that just never manages to translate in movies. Absolutely the best part of the show is its focus on *Clark* rather than #Superman. Totally recommend.

It'll be here soon! Register now for #MediaPsych25!

For those attending #ICA25, you may be interested in the (19)90s exhibit at History Colorado Museum, just a few blocks south of the convention. www.historycolorado.org/exhibit/the-...

Canonically, Rey and Ben are first cousins once-removed, which makes this really on-brand for the Skywalkers.

We're about one month out #ICA25, and we're proud to share that our JMP editorial team will have several different presentations - over 20, in total! Check out this interactive schedule, and if you're attending ICA, pop by to see their work-in-progress. docs.google.com/document/d/1...
