As a member of the #CHI2026 and #CSCW2026 PCs, I just want to say **thank you to ALL of you who have pulled through to write thoughtful, constructive reviews this year!!!** 🙏 My team is grateful for all of your comments, too---even though the To-Do list just got a bit longer!! 😅😅😅

So, the conference is over, but I received a few more join requests for the @acm-cscw.bsky.social starter pack. We can keep using this resource moving forward, so let's welcome more new folks to the pack! go.bsky.app/SPumuMT @srajtmajer.bsky.social @mako.cc @mhmud-fwzi.bsky.social

Are you working on a #CHI2026 paper w/tricky anonymization? Per the official policy (chi2026.acm.org/chi-anonymiz...), "Note that the use of any references marked “anonymous” is grounds for desk rejection." I would've had 3 papers desk rejected on these grounds. 😵 Watch out, folks. 👀 RT, please!

I almost got on Tea a couple weeks ago, but it smelled fishy. You are forced to either pay to subscribe or to share the app with at least one friend to get on. Any app using predatory tactics like this seems bound to wind up in the headlines. #noTea for me.

Both the virtual *and* in-person editions of #CSCW2025 are going to be amazing. Check out our planned community events! 👇👇👇

This is the way.

It depresses me to no end that so many people trust llms

I’m at the airport and headed to Madeira for #DIS2025 for our workshop on Religion and Spirituality in design research. Who else is going? I’m free all day Saturday and would love to meet up to explore Funchal or the surrounding area. Or, of course, we can grab a ☕️ at the conference.

Beautiful, inspiring words and sounds are opening up the #MAPS2025 Psychedelic Science conference this morning. From Dr. Doblin, “If your dreams can be accomplished during your lifetime, you are dreaming too small.” “Think big. Think multi-generational.”

I am attending the #MAPS2025 Psychedelic Science conference in Denver, Colorado this week. If you are too--especially my colleagues in mental and spiritual health care--please reach out! I'd love to meet up at the conference for coffee or lunch chats.

Lest we need more evidence that humans are susceptible to manipulation by the convincing, deranged text generated by LLMs, even in our core spiritual beliefs and most intimate relationships. The danger is real, and it is wreaking real havoc. Today. archive.is/202506070412...
