A great way to kick off my bluesky journey: new publication out in Bilingualism: Language and Cognition 🥳 with Susanne Brouwer, @sharonneke.bsky.social & @falkhuettig.bsky.social 👇🏻

An interesting insight from Ionica Smeets: In Netherlands, one goal is to increase public trust in science. Another is increasing the trust scientists have in the public. Mutual trust. #LingComm25

Ross Perlin: Doing good LingComm means thinking about "the ratio of substance to sizzle". From the panel discussion on Taking LingComm on the Road #LingComm25

In the Lingcomm and Policy panel: Where will your work have the most impact? Onno Crasborn left a tenured job in academia to become a schoolteacher again because he could do more as a teacher than by working on policy. #LingComm25

Adam Aleksic @etymologynerd.bsky.social explains that by using an app like TikTok, you are agreeing to the constraints it imposes. But all the same, "you should do what you like doing, and I really liked making those videos." #LingComm25

Linguist and educator Joao Costa in the LingComm and Policy panel: "The more voices we engage, the better the results." #LingComm25

"Linguistics contributes to the preservation of democracy," says linguist and educator Joao Costa in the LingComm and Policy panel. "We have to be aware that democracy is at risk. Language rights are human rights." #LingComm25

Have you ever got lost in a multi-storey carpark? That's what just happened to me. Except this was a multi-storey🚲 park! It has 3 levels, multiple lanes and space for 12,500 bikes. The biggest bikeshed in the world. I ❤️ my hometown, #Utrecht 😊

It might be 17 (!!!) degrees outside but it's still stir-up Sunday. Time to make this year's Christmas cake and (most likely) next year's mincemeat ⛄🌲😁

Sinds vrijdag is er een Discord-kanaal voor iedereen die zich bezighoudt met wetenschapscommunicatie over taal. Kom rondhangen met gelijkgestemden en praat mee over hoe je een blog/boek/podcast begint, hoe je impact meet en veel meer! discord.gg/xC7RK5N2 #taal
