Not a bad hall for the first Halloween they could actually request their own candy.

After five years in Baltimore, I am finally watching The Wire

Come work with us! We're really fun, I swear!

In all seriousness, Mason had been a dynamic and wonderful place to work and my CBN colleagues are wonderful 😊

I'm going to say pica or a bet

Many great resources in this list!

Congratulations to all of the 2025 winners, and honored that Data Management in Large-Scale Education Research received one of the 2025 SIPS Commendations!

Spend time on a good outline with plans for your citations and spend time keeping your data organized

Today marks over 100 miles, 2 lab meetings and two (impressed? Astounded?) trader Joe's employees worth of multimodal bike commuting!

A red circle around the AI regulation ban language reading: IN GENERAL. Except as provided in para graph (2), no eligible entity or political subdivision thereof may enforce, during the 10-year period beginning on the date of enactment of this subsection, any law or regulation of that eligible entity or a political subdivision thereof limiting, restricting, or otherwise regulating artificial intelligence models, artificial intelligence systems, or automated decision systems entered into interstate commerce.

Don’t be confused: The Senate Republican AI language includes the EXACT SAME AI moratorium as the House bill. Almost word-for-word. This is a complete, 10-year ban on state AI regulation. Period.

And then you stick around and keep playing anyway thinking "next time will be better"

So deep in toddler "no" land that I swear they just say no for kicks. "ABCD NoNoNo HIJK..."

Taking March 7 off to fight for my friends, and for the folks I have spent 20 years of my career supporting. Join me in DC or your local event.

Black History is Black Joy.

Despite efforts to erase, we persist. And so does joy. Today, I stood in front of Black art that reflected our light, resilience, and imagination. From family portraits to bold colors bursting with possibility—we are here.

Joy is our birthright. #joyplan

Going on two years now of shopping baby products and I have been lied to. Many. Times. But the using words "spill proof" has got to be the worst lie Big Baby has told yet.

I am making a brief appearance on social media to declare that I'm so here for Pop-Country Queen Beyonce

Totally agree! And I think I remember data supporting that. I'm imagining a system where they are free and become the catchall environment. I don't think most R1-type research Us are capable of doing the same thing as efficiently

What do you think about community college then? The colleagues I've met that teach in CCs are really creative with pedagogy and great and reaching a wide range of abilities.

Does social avoidance maintain social anxiety? Our paper is now published with some "free" eprints at this link www.tandfonline.com/eprint/RQK9U...

Is it just me or is it kind of gross that my manuscript is rejected then offered "a guarantee that [my] manuscript will proceed directly to peer review in Heliyon."?

Parenting thought of the day:

While looking at one of the twins I thought "wow he looks like if me and [my husband, father of my children] had a baby"

Filling out my SPR profile. This request for my IM handle just warms my little millennial heart

That's reassuring!

Would you believe I forgot I signed onto this thing for three weeks (probably, you would)

This is like getting to redo my Twitter introduction post isn't it? Too bad I still don't know what I'll be posting about. Here's a fair guess:

Babies
Cat/neighborhood animals
Research (mine)
Research (wishlist)
Faculty/academic life
Food
Hobbies I wish I had
