It's a new year, so I thought I'd do a thread highlighting some of the content from my Cog Sci YouTube channel - Language of Mind!
I'm really into language, the brain, cognition, and the connection between them - and I love science communication. So I made YouTube videos!

Every semester I offer an extra credit assignment where students have to explain a concept from class to someone outside of class (a parent, sibling, roommate, friend) and report back what they learned.
This semester I received this gem. This kid gets it 👇

Just came across this meme in my old course files. I don't remember making it, I think it came from a student. Hope they got an A+

Why did every dinosaur book I had as a kid show dinosaurs chilling in front of a volcano? Why was that like a dinosaur-specific thing? We still have volcanoes now, why don't kids books show okapis or Malayan tapirs chilling in front of a volcano?

Just started a new Pathfinder game set in a kind of early 20th century fantasy setting (our first session took place on a train!). Vibes similar to Legend of Korra meets classic D&D.
