Cool, and thank you! (I'm working on a book-length treatment of hostility, including updating and expanding the ideas in that scaffolding paper.)

Yes, and "attentional landscaping" is such a good term for it. (I sometimes say 'curating the attentional landscape' but using 'landscaping' as a verb is better.) Going to read Browne & Watzl shortly, and will look out for published versions of the others!

Critical 4E Cognitive Science According to 4E cognitive science, our cognitive capacities depend on, and have been transformed by, the environments we have made. Most early works of 4E cognitive science tend to focus on the upsid...

part of this is like, conservatives projecting; part of this is conservatives unable to imagine politics without money; and part of this is dudes who are so out of touch with feminized labor that they think children's birthday parties exist as a spontaneous act of parthogenesis

Rest in Peace Alex Jeffrey Pretti🙏🏾 The VA ICU Nurses send him off right 💔

How many versions of the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) exist? And how much does this affect research using the IGT? More than you might think. 🧵

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

Signs about the history of slavery in the U.S. and the 9 people George Washington enslaved are being removed right now at the President’s House Site in Philadelphia, across from Independence Hall, months after the Trump administration threatend to do so.

How far we have not come in 250 years.

The ‘Board of Peace’ is a protection racket on an international scale that would impress Trump’s mentor Roy Cohn.

I have sometimes recommended accept without revisions as a reviewer. I can't remember any as author...

Again it is something that people in previous eras have commented on but I still find it just astonishing to witness in my own: fascism is somehow the natural ideology of loser men, just all of our most pathetic and contemptible instincts rendered into a worldview.

Senator Susan Collins killed the amendment to protect the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) -- perhaps the world's premier research center for work on #weather, #climate, models, and remote sensing. Remember that.

“We Killed That Lesbian B*tch”: ICE Uses Renee Good’s Death as Threat Protesters are recounting federal agents using Good’s death to warn them off.

ICE officers are publicly stating that Renee Good was killed not because an officer was threatened but because they were made at her for not instantly following every order issued.

The new ICE threat to protestors is:

"Have you not learned? This is why we killed that lesbian bitch."

E.P.A. to Stop Considering Lives Saved When Setting Rules on Air Pollution

Trump’s EPA just announced they are no longer going to factor in the economic benefit of saving lives when setting air pollution standards—only the cost to industry. This goes directly against their own mandate to protect public health.

Sarah's New Ideas By Sarah Manvel: movies, books, art, fiction and other delights

Please tell your commissioning friends I'd love to start writing for some new publications! Irish-American film, book and art critic based in London; when I'm not at the theatre I'm at a film festival. More about me and some work samples: www.sarahsnewideas.com grma x

No, I don't. (Same goes for "Get Out", etc.) But they may be trying to optimise something other than rigor.

Full disclosure - I'm pretty sure I laughed a lot more than anyone else in the cinema at "One Battle After Another".

It was regularly hilarious, but also often scary and thrilling. The category itself is an oddity. ("Get Out" was nominated in the same category, BTW. Looking at a list, I see that "The Apartment" won it in 1960, and "The Graduate" in '67. All had humour, none 'merely' comedy...)

This is why philosophers get paid so much.

MINNEAPOLIS, United States -- Paramilitary forces under the command of President Trump expanded their campaign of terrorism to a new major American city, attacking a school and killing an unarmed civilian attempting to flee the violence.

Thank you - I wasn't aware of that!

Those conversations were so useful to me too! You'll hopefully see some of the impact of them in the discussion of interests in my final chapter.

"We are very well aware of the fact that X for Grok is now offering a spicy mode showing explicit sexual content.

This is not spicy. This is illegal. This is appalling. This is disgusting.

I can confirm we are very seriously looking into this matter."

I agree.

Line graph time series for Arctic sea ice volume in every December from 1901 through 2025. Two datasets are compared between PIOMAS-20C (a blue line) and PIOMAS v2.1 (a dashed red line). There is large interannual variability, but a long-term decreasing trend since 1990.

I'm no expert but my understanding is his political thought is largely in other texts. He was political editor of 'Les Temps Modernes' for c7 years, regular political essays, and the books 'Humanism and Terror' and 'Adventures of the Dialectic'. (He was just the first example that came to mind.)
