Please take the time to read what the children detained in Dilley wrote me in their own words: www.propublica.org/article/ice-... 10/

Never forget

Interesting thread that touches on issues I have tried to address in my articles about replication and well as my book (especially chapters 7 and 8). #psychology #philsky

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

25 January 1935 | Dutch Jewish boy, John Groenteman, was born in Amsterdam. He was deported to #Auschwitz from #Westerbork in September 1942. He was murdered in a gas chamber after the arrival selection. --- Children at Auschwitz: 🎧 Podcast: https://youtu.be/aYKx_zpLSqA

are YOU a university professor, professor emeriti or associate professor of history, social sciences, law, philosophy, theology, and religion? Did you know you can nominate people for the Nobel Peace Prize?

I do not think that they earnestly believe this video will convince anyone that the ICE agent was in danger and acted in self-defense. It's about stating that certain people - in this case, a queer woman activist - are undesirables who may be murdered by the state with impunity.

Pitch perfect

Here is my annual reminder to not say "come work with me" or "be my colleague" when sharing job ads fom your department. Being on the job market is incredibly hard. Candidates know that he actual chances of being your colleague are vanishingly small (sorry if this sounds harsh)

I attended a retirement conference for the Gary Hatfield and came back with so much love and admiration for him and the wonderful scholars who gave tributes to him! A pioneering figure in the history/philosophy of psychology! And an amazing mentor, teacher, and friend to many #HPS #HOPOS

Great to see that people are reading Danziger! I increasingly started to get interested in questions about cultural specificty of psychological kinds toward the end of my book as well. press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/bo...

Great piece. I am uncertain about the last paragraph, though ("The German public were not aware that the assassination ... would lead them down the road to terror and atrocity"). I suspect that many Germans were well aware of what was going on, just like many Americans are now.

I will never celebrate a murder, least of all of a young father. But I do not consent to deify a moderately popular podcaster who said Black women "do not have the brain processing power" of white men, who said "Jewish dollars" fund "cultural Marxism," into a great man of history. I dissent.

I had a rich and wide-ranging conversation w/ Professor Philip Kitcher for the podcast this week. We discuss his intellectual journey, interventions in creationism, sociobiology & the genome project, his philosophical evolution, and vision for philosophy serving the common good. A real privilege.

In the midst of all the erosion of respect for nuance and civility, I found it soothing to listen to this wonderful interview with @profess.bsky.social Lydia Patton. #HPS #HOPOS

14 September 1906 | A Czech Jewish woman, Vilma Feiglová, was born in Prague. She was deported to #Auschwitz from #Theresienstadt ghetto on 15 May 1944. She did not survive.

This looks extremely good by @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social So important to recognise differences in what 'open' means in #openscience. She shows for Bergson it's to cultivate meaningful social relationships, for Popper it's to exchange ideas and materials. The two can come apart! #philsci #metascience

16 April 1940 | A German Sinti boy, Hans Rosenbach, was born in Egersdorf. In #Zigeunerlager (Gyspy camp) in #Auschwitz II-Birkenau from 15 March 1943. No Z-3261 He perished in the camp on 1 May 1943.

This interview brought back happy memories of the three years I spent as a post-doc in Rheinberger's department at the MPI for the History of Science (about 20 years ago). Thank you, @tespiteri.bsky.social. Your smart and thoughtful questions turned this into a delightful conversation.

sound on heartwrenching

4 August 1920 | A Polish Jew, Jerzy Klein, was born in Vienna. A welder. In #Auschwitz from 11 December 1941. No. 24083 He perished in the camp on 15 March 1942.

2 August 1936 | A French Jewish girl, Berthe Lederman, was born in Paris. In August 1942 she was deported to #Auschwitz from Drancy and murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

The thing about Colbert is that he has always been smart & fast & brave. Sure the Late Show is a less aggressive venue so what he does is often less pointed, but he does that well too while also finding ways to talk head on to power. I really hope we get to see him unleashed for the next 6 months

“If we understand the objects of psychological research to be epistemically blurry, this implies the existence of epistemic agents from whose perspective they are blurry. If it were not for this perspective, we would not be doing science at all”. Just got a copy! Thanks @ufeest.bsky.social
