Submitted an article with my sister (PhD in psych). The fun part is that we spell our surnames differently 🥸

I’ve kept the OG Americanised version while she has had to compromise on a variant that doesn’t upset the delicate French bureaucracy.

Here’s to many more “St.Denny & Saint Denny” papers🤞🏼😅

Methods don’t make meaning. Theory does.

Better methods won’t eradicate the slot machine.

Put the tools to the use of theory.

Somebody hit my cat with their car and killed him. And there really isn’t anything to do but sit here with that.

New article out this month on how doctors become fascists.

50% of German physicians joined the Nazi Party––twice the proportion of any other profession. US doctors today are arguably the most conservative in the world, and we're heading along a similar path.

Fred Ramsdell was parked at a campground in Montana on Monday when his wife suddenly started shouting. He first thought that maybe she had seen a grizzly bear. Instead, she had regained cell service and had seen a flood of text messages with the same news. “You just won the Nobel Prize!” she yelled.

My hottake is that the new Taylor Swift album is good! No skips, for me. Having a fun pop album to enjoy in the midst of chaos and cruelty is a gift.

My disasterologist take is that I would encourage you all not to dance through lightning. That is actually very dangerous.

Never not surprised by how deeply disturbed and destabilised (sometimes even angry) some of my students get when I introduce them to the work of @birdlady.bsky.social and the claim that sex is socially constructed and neither binary nor fixed.

The pedagogy of gender & politics is fraught terrain.
