so cool!

Maria was a former supervisee of mine back at BGSU before I moved to UNM; happy to see she landed somewhere as good as Brown for internship!

I know it's a white savior movie, but Last Samurai... raised super conservative, & watching that as a teenager was one of my first exposures to the idea that maybe colonialism was bad and that the American way of progress and war was harmful... legitimately started very important reflection for me

It’s that season in the 505

It’s wild, BJJ tourneys with the kids have maybe the best overall culture I’ve seen; parents get booted for being to hard on their own kids.

Kids out there choking the daylights out of each other and zero tolerance for adults bullying behaviors

STEM obviously does not corrupt people; that’s absurd.

STEM taught me how to think scientifically, statistically, and probabilistically.

But in personal experience (n=1), the humanities made me a better thinker; certainly not a more moral one, but definitely a more careful and critical one.

As a former stem and humanity double major I think I’m something of a moral paragon myself

This was mine too!

Yokohama is great!

Origen of Alexandria believed all people would be resurrected in spherical bodies at the Second Coming because it’s the perfect form.

Kinda makes him the original man o’ sphere, if you think about it.

New research with Chris Floyd, Shane Kraus, and @joshuagrubbsphd.bsky.social ! We explored the relationship between concerns about compulsive sexual behavior (CSB) and other addictive behaviors. Even when people don't meet clinical criteria, CSB concerns may signal broader addiction risks.

Dr. Cottom is very much right in this; but also, this is an **extraordinarily** uphill battle in the U.S., where Christian hegemony still dominates. The current, dominant form of American christianity has virtually no tolerance for the notion of "chance"

people get fixated on him as the dad in Taken (and the 90 other times he's essentially played that character) but, in a real sense, his pigeon-holing in those kinds of roles are what make him so, so effective comedically. His deadpans are just amazing.

Original Ranger Panty Also known as Silkies, the Soffe Ranger Panties have been Military favorite for decades. Made of loose fitting soft tricot which won’t snag or run.

my daughter is increasingly inured to my attempts to embarrass her by wearing short, khaki dad shorts in public with her... so now it's time to bring out the big guns

Yeah, I address this in the replies; nih funding laid the foundations that pharma used; I don’t like the “he’s a hypocrite” framing, but that’s because I am a CF parent myself; I think he’s a heartless goon, but not because of the daughter with CF, but, arguably, nuance isn’t so important in this

Yeah… it’s interesting when you start digging into the $$$

And you probably on looked up the CFF, right? They are the biggest but far from the only foundation in the space

It’s a “rare” disease that disproportionately affects white people… the real discrepancy in its funding is the foundation differential (just insane amounts of charity/philanthropy)

I don’t think you’re wrong (and I don’t know that I even disagree); with CF, it’s hard not to do nuance (my biases are well known)

Ironically, in CF groups I often have to advocate that the NIH does fund CF research
