This is not the first time this happened and it won’t be the last, tragically. Absolutely unacceptable that ICE agents are killing unarmed civilians with little to no consequences. Modern day Gestapo. Would like to see some accountability and serious repercussions, but hard to feel hopeful atm.

NOW: Crowd continues to grow in Minneapolis at a vigil where a federal agent shot and killed Renee Good this morning. “SAY HER NAME!” “RENEE GOOD!”

Thank you to everyone who came out and helped spread the word. Thousands of Minnesotans gathered tonight for a vigil honoring Renee Good, who was murdered by ICE agents. Let’s get ICE out of MN!

Got back on the ice for the first time in nearly two years yesterday. Didn’t realize how much I missed playing until that surge of dopaminergic activity! Happy to be skating and playing hockey again. 🏒 #ABQ #NewMexico #Hockey

Feeling like this today after hosting family and hanging out with my daughter while she was on winter break. 🙃

All to control their oil reserves, and to distract from his abysmal economy, approval rating, and retracted evidence of him repeatedly committing childhood sexual assault.

Happy New Year, all! Trying to not give into despair and instead embody defiant hope, as I heard someone say recently. Here’s a pic of my favorite band, Railroad Earth, from a February 2025 show I saw. And some of their lyrics to remember: “Lift up your eyes, my dear, We need some light in here.”

This spectacular image of the planetary alignment of Saturn, Mars, Venus, and Jupiter above the Sydney Opera House was taken in the early morning around April 21, 2022, and featured as NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day on April 26, 2022

Just a girl and her Zaide. ❤️ #santafe #newmexico

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

You love to see it!

Thanks, @katiew.bsky.social! Means a lot!

So awful and absolutely heartbreaking. Sending love and support to all my colleagues, friends, and family in the Brown and Providence communities. How may times does this have to happen to implement sensible gun legislation? Harm reduction saves lives and applies here.

I do what I can. 🤷‍♂️

It is a good place to be

We will still consider applications submitted today and tomorrow!

Got to see my first game at The Pit last week! Women’s Basketball at @unm.edu had a 33 point win over UT Martin. Thanks, @lcornelas.bsky.social for taking me!

Best time of year in Albuquerque, apparently. 🍁 🤗 #ABQ #BotanicGarden

Unfortunately, rampant sexism and misogyny is alive and well in and outside of academia. Only the weakest men are threatened by strong, smart, and/or successful women. Don’t be these guys; yikes.

Interested in spatiotemporal decoding of choice and feedback in the human brain? My lab’s postdoc Rohit Yadav will present these beautiful MEG results from our novelty bandit at #SFN2025 Sunday 11/16, PSTR094.23 / LL8 (top row: explore vs exploit; bottom: reward vs nonreward)

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Hope it’s a meaningful #Veterans Day for ALL Veterans and #military families, as well as my colleagues who dedicate their lives and careers to provide clinical care, research, and other resources with and for these folks within the VA Health Care System. #VeteransDay2025 #VAServesAllWhoServe

Wow. Democratic Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury absolutely destroys Jake Tapper — who tries to advance a debunked Republican talking point about Trump cutting off SNAP.

UNM folks always doing big things! Great turnout by fantastic colleagues!

@lcornelas.bsky.social crushing her talk at the 25th National Science Network on Drug Abuse conference at @universityofmiami.bsky.social! Incredible and important work on #GABA, #endocannabinoids, traumatic #stress, and #alcohol use in animal models. #NSNDA2025 #addictionscience #trauma @unm.edu

Very cool paper! Happy I got to be a part of it!

Proud of my city! 👏

Got licensed in the state of New Mexico this week! Now licensed both here and in Colorado as a #clinical #psychologist. Should probably do #PSYPACT next. Anyone gone through that process?

We like to have fun here. 😎 @unm.edu @casaa.bsky.social

Thank you, @reaganfitzke.bsky.social! It looks great!

📣 New Pub 📣 We captured 30-day emotion intensity & dysregulation data from EMA & examined in relation to cortisol (from hair) during the same period. Emotion intensity & hair cortisol levels were significantly associated among women with high (but not low) emotion dysregulation.

Dr. Brick is an amazing researcher and fantastic human! Definitely apply if you’re on the market and passionate about this work!

Great two days at the ICRG Conference on Gambling and Addiction. Got to present on combat sports betting, see Alex and @joshuagrubbsphd.bsky.social present their work on co-occurring alcohol use and sports betting, and was able to see Josh get his award!!! Gooooood weekend for the BAAAD lab 🐐🎰🎲

I got a vase

My partner Stephanie and I had a fantastic time at our 1st Balloon Fiesta! Woke up at 3:15 am to catch Dawn Patrol and Mass Ascension! Even got to witness @unm.edu Psych faculty @lcornelas.bsky.social & @katiew.bsky.social and the rest of the Besos Amigos team launch Amore! #BalloonFiesta2025 #ABQ

Long post ahead! I am very excited to be recruiting 1 to 2 #PhD students during this upcoming application cycle for Fall 2026 admission! The Clinical Psychology PhD program at The University of New Mexico (UNM) is absolutely stellar and accredited by both #APA and #PCSAS (Clinical Science model). 1/

My cup is full from another @istss.bsky.social conference in the books! Always amazing to see so many friends and colleagues that I normally only see on a computer screen, as well as 2 of my UCCS grad students! Wish I had gotten more pictures, but these are some of my favorite ones. #ISTSS2025

Thank you to all who came out to our SIG meeting yesterday! Whether you could make it or not, stay tuned for a survey to follow up on discussion regarding suggestions for facilitating increased membership and engagement in our SIG! #ISTSS2025

Over the moon is an understatement for how excited I am for @reaganfitzke.bsky.social! She is a brilliant PhD student in @mpwrlab.bsky.social & put together a phenomenal proposal & stellar mentor team w/ @jenread.bsky.social, @ericrpedersen.bsky.social, & Dr. Mark Prince. Can’t wait for her study!

Really enjoyed helping table for the @casaa.bsky.social at #ABQ Celebrates #Recovery Day! We talked to a lot of folx that stopped by & gave away all of our swag! Big shoutout to @matwmccool.bsky.social for helping organize the whole event! And kudos to the whole CASAA team that helped volunteer!

New Mexico just became the first state in the country to pass a law that provides free child care to everyone regardless of income! This is huge for our family with 2 in daycare and every other caregiver that struggles to afford childcare. Nice work, NM! www.nmececd.org/universal/

CDC scientists receive a heroes welcome after walking out today.

This is so awful and heartbreaking. Been throwing me off all day as I used to live right by this school and Minneapolis is a place I still call home. When does it stop? When do we finally do something to create a culture shift in this country to ensure responsible gun ownership?

It’s the little things in life that matter. I just got coffee on the way to campus and was jamming music in the drive thru. Pulled up and the cashier asked me, “are you the car playing Alanis Morisette?” I said yes and she told me to “turn it up!” 😎 #onehandinmypocket #theotherisdrinkingicedcoffee
