I saw a crack that looks like an opossum today

…annnd in situ thanks to @neukili.bsky.social! I had a blast as always. Next year in Rio?? 👀👀

Thanks to a rogue Partiful RSVP form at #cogsci2025, I seem to have collected an unexpectedly large dataset (N=197) of whether cognitive scientists think the mind is composed of innate, domain-specialized modules…

At 18:30 UK time, I will be presenting my work on learning and exploration across development at the @cogscisociety.bsky.social Glushko Dissertation Prize Session! #CogSci participants can join at this link: underline.io/events/489/s...

If you like semantic category systems and efficiency biases, come say hi at #CogSci2025! Efficient communication drives the semantic structure of kinship terminology (P3-H-71, Friday 2 Aug @ 13:00)

I’m here at #CogSci2025! And I made some earrings to match my stimuli! If you want to chat about the ✨emergence of compositional structure in iterated reference games✨, come by my poster today at P1-M-125

What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? I’m writing abstracts and making figures

writing a bu abstract at 10pm at sfo as one does

back back back again here’s some knitwear as penance for disappearing

I saw some birds at the botanical gardens and thought you’d wanna see them too

Hi I’m baaaaaack

Spent the weekend dying some rainbow pastel neon yarn to welcome the summer 🌈🧶

Yarn day yarn day yarn day!! 🧶

Trying to spin through my stash of random 1-2oz bits of fiber. First up: mystery wool from chile that I got to practice on my drop spindle 💚💙🧶

I lost my password to this account but I FOUND IT and I have NEWS I’ve been dying yarn and roving and spinning and have run out of storage so I’ve opened a shop! Please buy my stuff! It deserves to be loved and used by someone more creative than me! 🧶🌈 https://follyfibers.etsy.com

Spring spring spring spring spring (my north-facing window’s light catcher is catching light!!)

Me? opening an Etsy shop? More likely than you’d think (actually it’s been very likely I don’t have space for all the things I’m making)

Broke out my spinning wheel last night and spun up some roving that I dyed all by myself!!!! 🧶💖💙

I told my mom about the girl I’m dating which I’m realizing, several hours later, was the first time I’ve been explicit about my queerness to her and it really didn’t phase either of us

maybe I should start an etsy shop

I don’t really want to go back to the real world tomorrow

I dyed some roving all by myself and didn’t felt it are you proud of me?? 🍬🧶

Watch out everyone indie yarn dyer Jess is coming through 😈🧶

viridis yarn experiment in progress?? 🧶🧪

Fear not!! It still fits!! An alpaca miracle 🧶

This is peaches

(Re)learned that alpaca stretches like nothing else when blocked, so I’m blocking now to see how much I (might??) need to rip back to get a normal length sweater 🤞🤞🧶

The yarn shop where I made most of my friends and connections is closing next week and I’m SO sad about it

I opened ucla tinder just for curiosities sake and everyone is just so pretty how does that happen

Good morning I have a 7am flight

I have the kind of eczema that means when I get stressed my hands burn and blister for a week which just seems unfair

I think I need a coffee table

Winter means I can really start dressing (Coordinate my hand kits with my glasses 🤓🧶)

I saw a mouse in my kitchen last night and I have never cleaned so fast or so thoroughly

Sleeves have been split successfully!! 🧶

It’s winter so I can really start dressing (wear four different shades of black and some funky socks)

This is a normal and not at all worrying amount to knit in one evening right 🧶

Attempt #3 off to a promising start 🐎🧶

I’m finally feeling well enough to think about stitch counts so I’m restarting my handspun colorwork sweater send me all your best sweater math vibes (attempt 1 memorialized here in perpetuity) 🧶

just put a deposit down on this well-loved single treadle lendrum for 1/4 retail 🫡🧶

Back to my favorite spot

Today an undergrad said I had “hella professor vibes” can I put that on my CV

I’m so tired of being sick!!!

I think about the cool queer person who lives in the apartment immediately below mine every single time I drop anything on my floor

How’s the time change going? I just tried to put myself to bed at 7pm

I love seasons so much

I’m not participating in daylight savings this year, y’all will have to just start including JST (Jess Standard Time) to all your meeting invites
