A recent paper by Epp et al. in NN claimed that ~40% of reported BOLD findings could be misinterpreted. In our reanalysis, we identified several statistical issues that, in our view, undermine these conclusions. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... 👇 1/11

You wish to know how your email finds me? Huh? THIS IS HOW!

One thing that happens a lot when people talk about Barney Frank's decision to cut trans people out of the employment nondiscrimination bill he wrote in 2007 is they'll go, "But wasn't it better to get something done rather than nothing? He was being a pragmatist!" But they've got it ALL wrong.

And there was nothing that we could do about it. Babu Frik was a made man, and Grogu wasn't. And we had to sit still and take it. It was among the Mandalorians. It was real greaseball shit. They even shot Grogu in the face so his mother couldn't give him an open coffin at the funeral.

See, the spying at Southampton goes back decades!

Look I'm first in line to pile on the Poms at any chance, but I've lived in the US for 25 years, in big cities and small, have traveled here a ton, and if you think you can reliably get a decent baguette here without lining up for two hours at 7am you are kidding yourself

I think the typo here makes this extra amusing

Very detailed and meticulous reporting on situation with FBI and labs at UM and Indiana www.science.org/content/arti...

Everyone is dunking on the Washington Post for their podcast with 470 views. If you all click on it, we can beat them in “the podcast ratings.” This one is with our good friends at Wheatland Spring Farm + Brewery.

Amplifying this thread esp the convo b/n @micahgallen.com and @jtheriault.bsky.social for those who say science engagement on Bluesky is dead

Do this even if you live in a dem state/district. Add a line about your own work. Took me 5mins. No excuses

Calf? More like golden cankle am I rite?

rollin into the weekend like

Kicking myself for making my students email me their papers instead of making them submit them via Canvas. Guess I have to do that grading now after all!

There are two higher ed Bluskies right now:

I might be speaking out of turn here but who gives a f*ck what some dweeb from Jacobin has to say about rock and roll? Go back to your Frankfurt School or whatever nerd. What does he know about partying...or anything else?

I love to be a lifelong political operative, be rewarded with a Supreme Court seat, and then instantly stop doing all that 👍

Er, in this one you are only damned if you do. If you don't you might only lose your job. If you don't know the difference get out of the FBI

Did I really just spend two days working out how to build the Connectome wb_view from source so I could add the Purple-Green cmap from colorbrewer? Yes, but it looks so pretty

When people think about "life saving medications" they often think about cancer treatments, maybe antibiotics. But antidepressants are one of the most important life saving medications to have been discovered.

Slightly diminish a book: Love in the Time of a Bit of a Stomach Virus

so like are we just going to pretend that nepo baby cis comedian isn't planting someone in his audiences to act like a Problematic Trans Person so he can shit on trans people while being lauded for it?

The horror

Opposing BOLD signals and oxygen metabolism largely arise from statistical uncertainty in metabolic estimates https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2026.04.21.719913v1

the gloves are OFF. this is WAR. at 9am we are going to file a MOTION TO DISMISS your LAWSUIT about the PRESIDENT'S BALLROOM

You know who else had a special room for their balls?

I see that Marcia McNutt is once again demonstrating that she’s unqualified to lead the NAS. I only hope that the NAS survives her disastrous tenure

Because @nationalacademies.org decided to bend the knee and host a session with Jay Bhattacharya and some of his fellow travelers, they tarnished a meeting on the important topic of scientific integrity even before it began. 1/

one of the (many) problems with gaze direction approaches to detecting attention--which is what in-car systems use--is that over and above the failure mode described herein it is perfectly possible to be paying attention to something you aren't looking directly at

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

You know, if you actually cared about scientific integrity in the social and behavioral sciences you might be more interested in this

When you join in with Jay Bhattacharaya on a panel, how are you not implicitly endorsing this? You are certainly lending it your credibility

It's unfortunate that @simine.com is a part of this, but maybe that's where we are. Those who start out touring scientific integrity happy to join in with the voices destroying it

just saw someone call Kash Patel “J Edgar Boozer” and need to lie down

Something something line in the sand, something something waves washing it away...

Brutal polling when it comes to public opinion among Democratic voters on the topic of Israel: Source: x.com/forecasteren...

Why was I 100% not surprised that Jorginho was at the center of this, and also that it was all BS?

Beautiful paper — clear evidence for a generative model in the human brain 🧠 👁️ A shared code for perceiving and imagining objects in human ventral temporal cortex www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Absolutely love this

Nothing worse than when a little bugger tries to nick your Greggs in Tooting Bec

Bitter reviewer rant alert! 🚨 Nothing kills the motivation to do review like being "uninvited" when you’re only two days late; especially after keeping the editor updated. I’m nearly finished, I take the work seriously, and I’m doing it on top of a million other things 🙄

we don’t owe the “why didn’t she report it” crowd a single response

When u have to debate JD

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

Still convinced that this will be one of the more important advances in medical imaging
