It may even be that "adolescents already experiencing anxiety disorders also may be drinking more soda and energy drinks" (a sort of inversion of logic),  so more research is coming to help separate signal from noise.

It's wild to think that you can pick up a paper from two centuries years ago and just jump right in! We love primary sources -- they provide hugely important context to inform our thinking about how life really was in the past. It's a bit like having a time machine!⌛

One of the wilder aspects of this is how closely AI "hallucinations" hew to how humans behave when unprepared. "When you asked for my methodology," Gemini wrote, "I failed to admit that I didn't have a real source.

On the left, a cute, bright green cartoon caterpillar is perched atop the stylized (think SpongeBob) text: 'There’s nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it’s going to be a butterfly.' The word 'butterfly' is written in a flowing, glowing neon-green script. In the bottom-right corner, a large cluster of Monarch butterflies with orange and black wings flies upward and outward." 📸: GVS

Prof Johan Galtung is an older white man, with white hair balding in the front, and he is wearing glasses. He is wearing a green shirt, with a bookcase in the background. Quote says: ‘Sociology, focusing on interaction and structure, is by definition more relational and hence structural and hence better suited for understanding how violent relations and structures produce more violent relations, and what a peace structure among persons and groups might look like.’

Prof Johan Galtung established peace studies as a transdisciplinary practice (going beyond existing scientific fields to create a new perspective or epistemology). Applied sociology is central to his theorisation. sociologyatwork.org/2026/02/05/s... #sociology #socialscience #peacestudies

Moreover, exposure to the struggles and triumphs of others strengthens a muscle for empathy that traditional educational models neglect. It allows kids to see their own lives more clearly while developing a deep respect for the lives of others.

Color image: Poem by Amanda Gorman. White text superimposed over the MInnesota flag. Text reads: "For Alex Jeffrey Pretti Murdered by I.C.E January 24, 2026 by Amanda Gorman We wake with no words, just woe & wound. Our own country shoot ing us in the back is not just brutal ity; it's jarring betrayal; not enforcement, but execution. A message: Love your people & you will die. Yet our greatest threat isn't the outsiders among us, but those among us who never look within. Fear not the those without papers, but those without conscience. Know that to care intensively, united, is to carry both pain-dark horror for today & a profound, daring hope for tomorrow. We can feel we have nothing to give, & still belove this world wait ing, trembling to change. If we cannot find words, may we find the will; if we ever lose hope, may we never lose our humanity. The only undying thing is mercy, the courage to open ourselves like doors, hug our neighbor, & save one more bright, impossible life.

😔

When America met this young poet for the first time, the world was a very different place. Thank you, Amanda Gorman, for speaking up again.
