fortunately ik some of the people (within the field) by name who contributed to the slopaganda (i will never cite/collaborate with these people); but im sure there are more lurking in the shadows. if anyone knows anyone you should lmk! we should make a list :)
still cant believe people ate up that "40 beheaded babies" hoax (i can because amerikkkans are fascist but like. wow). people were pearl clutching and crocodile-tear-shedding but then when it became clear "isnotreal" was the one killing children en masse they all fell silent. how convenient 🙂

We plan to hire a post doc to start in Fall 2026 (flexible), in the Aulet Lab at UMass Amherst, funded for two years. The postdoc will help establish our developmental fMRI research program studying symbolic number acquisition in 4-8 year old children (among other things!).
Read Nina Farnia to understand, in her words, why the “Larijani assassination is part of a failing war strategy that may produce short term tactical wins but does not lead to strategic gains or victory.”

Ali Larijani, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, who walked the streets of Tehran hours after the US/zios bombed it last week, who humiliated US-zio admin and its stenographers by exposing their lies in its most influential media outlets, was martyred yesterday.

(Perceptual) space and time are warped by the gravity of objects and events in their vicinity. There's been a flurry of work recently documenting examples of this gravity, all resulting in some really neat illusions.

By age 6, many children in the US believe that numbers are infinite, despite initially representing counting as a meaningless & finite chain of words. In a new paper w/ Jess Sullivan & @drbarner.bsky.social, we explored the basis for this conceptual change. 1/n

New w/ @drbarner.bsky.social! We argue that children's struggle to represent the past and future in common tests of knowledge may stem from difficulties in hypothetical reasoning about imaginary timelines, rather than a lack of knowledge about time. 1/n

"the US and its allies have applied economic sanctions as a means to foment dissent in hopes of destabilizing leaders and governing parties (often referred to in the parlance as "regimes") and often to overthrow and oust them from power..."
READ: International law is dead — and the empire just declared open season. From Venezuela’s president being kidnapped to genocide in Palestine, this is what “impunity” looks like. mondoweiss.net/2026/01/ushe...
Moments like this prove how useful to the ruling class is the miseducation & ignorance of the US public. Even if some find what’s going on fishy and doubt the official line, the base of knowledge they’d need to give a robust rebuttal seems far out of reach. Education is one of our most urgent tasks.

Tweet from help cats (@helpcatsmsallam): If fate grants you another chance, be mindful that returning to what has collapsed around you is not merely about correction, but a journey toward a deeper understanding of yourself. Let your past experiences be your guide, and your mistakes a lantern that illuminates your path toward the better. Life always offers us opportunities to rebuild, to prove that we are capable of growth and ascent. Walk with deliberate steps, and view each decision through the eyes of wisdom, for self-confidence is not a luxury, but the foundation for creating a future worthy of being lived with sincerity. Every new chance is not merely a span of time given, but an invitation to discover the silent strength within you, and the awareness that a true human is one who turns every experience into a window toward an endless horizon. I love what l've achieved. I love the resilience l've mastered, the acceptance, the daily gratitude for the smallest details, the
(continued): contentment, and the inner insight that shines and illuminates. And I have this personal sense of pride in being me.. My dear friends, two and a half months have passed since the ceasefire. It's time to rise again and move forward. It's time to rebuild, my friends. Yes, things will be difficult, but together we can achieve great things from simple things. We will face obstacles. I will search diligently for materials, and I know there will be some I won't find. We will discuss alternatives, but 1 am confident that together we will overcome this.. My dear friends, we're almost there! Together, we can build a home for the 15 cats who survived the war with me. The shelter will also house other cats in need of care. gofund.me/434dd5013 You can also support me directly with cat food and their daily needs via PayPal. paypal.me/animalrescue703 Sometimes we forget to thank the people who make our lives better just by being in it, so thank you for being you.

Over 1.3 million people still need urgent shelter while 740,000 face toxic flooding from collapsed sanitation systems due to Israel's bombardment. Winter rains and collapsing buildings from Israel's genocide have killed at least 20 Palestinians.
