Text saying that Louisa May Alcott’s latest book release is available on Amazon. The book was released over 150 years ago.

So close, Amazon. Only about 150 years late.

Daughter: which kind of football?

Google to pay $68 million over allegations its voice assistant eavesdropped on users Class-action lawsuit alleged that Google's voice assistant illegally recorded and shared private conversations with advertisers.

Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"?

Well, it happens they were doing exactly that.

My first thought was:

Now I’m dying to know what you do on wednesdays.

How can it already be time to register for summer camps?!? The semester hasn’t even started yet.

Re-upping, as we're still accepting applications. Please consider!

Somehow missed that NSFGRFP will no longer consider clinical psychology students (regardless of the focus of the project?).

Any recommendations for alternative funding mechanisms for post-bacc and early doctoral students? Want to create a list for our postbaccs and PhD students

Check out our paper examining the ambulatory physiological assessment of PTSD (led by @bwisco.bsky.social) as part of this neat new special issue:

🎵 They did the Monster Slash 😭 @ellecordova.bsky.social

A lot of people think that every international student admitted means one fewer spot for domestic students, when the opposite is more likely true - the tuition revenue international students bring allows public universities to provide substantial discounts to domestic students, improving access.

Trauma researchers! Give @istss.bsky.social a follow.

….it’s also a calendar?

This is a new one - I got an email saying “our AI found a $12,000 funding opportunity that aligns perfectly with your research”. It gave me the name and deadline and said it was an APF grant. But there is no such grant on APF’s website. It appears to be completely made up.

A bit of a flyer request, but I know a PhD student looking to find a sponsor for EASP membership to attend the conference. Is anyone in my network a full member who would be open to sponsoring her? She’ll do all the paperwork, etc. I think the deadline is soon so any help would be appreciated!

The U.S. is finally getting a royal wedding!

You should be excused from faculty meetings on your birthday!
