It’s been a devastating 24 hours with 3 NIH grants terminated…all focused on the health and wellbeing of trans or intersex youth. If folks have any ideas of foundations that may be interested in supporting the completion of these projects so years of work aren’t wasted, please let me know. 🙏

Please consider sharing your stories with Denni!

Yeah, that part lost me

Well, one tiny defense: just said that I found the argument compelling, mostly the part about capitalism motivating a never ending quest for self perfection that views other people as expendable. Much of the rest is questionable

This is such a solid insult that I am rendered defenseless. Have definitely had sensation of brain melting like ice cream. Will get it checked out

Honestly, I find the argument kind of...compelling? Screenshots coming. Apologies in advance for contributing to latent desires to check back in on the hell site

Glad to see support for PCI from SIPS! PCI (and other initiatives like it) are the future of publishing -- more transparent, inclusive, and overall a more financially sensible model for #AcademicPublishing. Hey #PsychSciSky, maybe it's time to have our own? 🤔🙂

we've now moved 325 people from psych twitter to #psychscisky
