"I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange kitten wandered over to sit with me in the grass one day. I was left without adequate words to describe that experience. It reminded me that I am alive."

If you’re crying too much about people joking about that ceos death, I can only assume you’re in more danger of dying from getting shot due to being a pos than from getting denied healthcare.

Saw the evening light falling on this wall a few weeks back and took a photo with my phone. A few days ago I was walking by and this time had my camera with me. iPhone and Fujifilm X-T30ii with a 23mm F2 lens.

Lynn's "national IQ" dataset is egregiously flawed; he never described methods for its construction & there is evidence the dataset is systematically biased. Journals should retract papers which have used the data, yet are reluctant to do so, as our @statnews.bsky.social piece describes👇
Richard Lynn’s racist national IQ data sets and papers that use them should be retracted. New piece in Stat News from @dsamorod.bsky.social, @stairwaytokevin.bsky.social, @jedidiahcarlson.com, James Lingford, @rebeccasear.bsky.social, Cathryn Townsend, and me
Journals that published Richard Lynn's racist 'research' articles should retract them
Richard Lynn's work has been repeatedly condemned for using flawed methodology and deceptively collated data to support racism. It's past time to retract the studies.

Are there (academic) professional development activities that are not like how to rewrite your cv standing upside down using pomodoro technique? Everything is about branding or hacks, and I get it (desperation to be employed), but it’s still sad.

Getting very urban wildlife pilled. Watching them constantly defy odds in a hostile environment and, sometimes, even thrive, is so moving.

I have been taking an afternoon break to go to this patch of flowers and look for crab spiders. They are so still, it takes some time before you spot them, focusing away from the heavy, chaotic traffic of the flies, bees and wasps.

Hamas upon hearing of my condemnation:
Oh no. We have lost Sridhar. We must change our actions going forward. We were hoping he would avoid voicing his disapproval, so we could continue in our misguided ways.
Israel upon hearing of it:
Why have you not double condemned Hamas? It's been ten minutes.
