Let me tell you a story. Perhaps you can guess where this is going... though it does have a bit of a twist.

I was poking around Google Scholar for publications about the relationship between chatbots and wellness. Oh how useful: a systematic literature review! Let's dig into the findings. 🧵

1) Open recipe
2) Type cooked.wiki/ into the very front of the url
3) Get a simple 2-column text of the ingredients & steps

One of the 1st things I learned form the early days of Bluesky!

Okay I’ve settled on an answer: Diehard is a movie that takes place during Christmas, but it isn’t a Christmas movie. However, it’s still appropriate to watch during the Christmas szn, like how horror movies are appropriate for Halloween

Whenever I hear someone's competency for court seemed ok except for some struggles around plea deals, I'm like...

But over 95% of criminal cases end in plea deals!

You must assume this person is gonna be faced w/ a deal, & they NEED to show they can understand one!

For example, on the outside, it costs almost nothing to create/share videos. Behind bars, it can cost up to $1.50 – which is A LOT when you consider prison wages can be as low as $0.04/hour

It's clear this is a gross continuation of exploitation of a vulnerable population

Sorry to my office mate who heard my very emphatic response to this and briefly thought I was angry about something. Last year, I stood up on a table; guess my excited reactions are exclusively set to 12/10 #apls2025

What are some ideas or initiatives that have worked for you in reaching out to communities of color for research studies? This is really important to me and I'm happily taking suggestions. Any general advice is also welcome! #AcademicChatter #Diversity #Neuropsychology
