Florida Board Rejects Ono for UF Job The Florida Board of Governors decided against confirming Santa Ono as president of the University of Florida in a contentious vote focused on diversity, equity and inclusion.

After resigning from Michigan and bending over backwards to try and appease them, "The Florida Board of Governors voted Tuesday to reject Santa Ono as the next president of the University of Florida"

Has anyone scraped comments from an instagram or tiktok post for research? If so, how? 😅

I'm certain we can find a research use for this, so I'm willing to partially fund the camel.

Over the past month, I’ve been working on a grant application for the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) and employees say Musk and Trump are about to defund institute. I’m pissed, but more than anything I just hope we can effectively fight back against all of the tyranny.

I created a R script to see how many times one of those words came up in my recent NSF grant submission. The answer was 355 (!) times. Laughing but crying. Mostly crying.

Here's the code if you want to try it on your grant: github.com/calvinklai/d...

Exactly this. It's really gross to see people arguing that their research will be "unfairly" flagged/catch strays. It sets a scary precedent where people start pointing fingers and suggesting that "those people" are the problem, but not them. Quite chilling.

Some people’s research will be flagged and then will move on with clarification. Other people’s research will be flagged and… it’s done. The differences in who those people are will not be random.

Our new preprint on the historical psychology of prejudice is out!

As I’ve said before, Haley & Scott are in the unenviable position of running in a party in which their acceptance requires that they assuage whiteness at every turn.

And assuaging whiteness today—as it has in the past—means not mentioning slavery when one is asked about the cause of the Civil War.

Okay I clearly need to fix my profile pic because copying directly over from Twitter was not a resounding success, but hellllllo Bluesky! I hope that some sort of GIF interface happens soon because you all know that's how to get me to stay.
