@ashlinn_peters Everyone is pretending. You just get better at pretending with time.

[Connad Higgins @ConnadHiggins]

@MeganKeen_ @JoelBillieux Haha. Yes it does. I wonder what motivations measure they’re using. Might be very up my alley.

@DrChristyRogers @ttucohs @tinagreene_ @SteinmanBecca Happy that 3 years and countless “once in a lifetime” events later, you’re still stuck with me @DrChristyRogers. I’m also happy that I got to share the video with @SteinmanBecca and @tinagreene_ . I’m very proud of the wonderful work you’ve both done and glad to be a part of it.

@GametoGrow @Exocomics Pretty much every session. If you can't be creative, goofy, experiment, and explore your ideas then you're missing out on the best parts of playing RPGs.

@IngramPsychLab @ttupsychscience Can't wait to hear about how it went!

@thebeth2393 I like 80s synthwave stuff. Makes me feel like a computer hacker from a movie.

@CampioneBarr Basic home/maintenance skills (e.g., fixing a leaky faucet, changing your home's air filters, fixing a burnt out tail light, etc.) so that they dont have to go to an "expert" and pay 10 times what it actually costs to fix.

@DrChristyRogers @DrDAWeiser Thank you both 💜. It's going to take a few days for the exhaustion to wear off, but I'm very excited about our project. Now we just wait 6 months.

Huge thanks to @CPCharity and @ChildrensColo for hosting the first Pediatric Gaming Technology Symposium. It was the first professional event I've attended that combined my love of developmental science and research on gaming. Met so many awesome people and can't wait for more.

@DrChristyRogers @DrDAWeiser Just don't point that glitter at anyone's eyes ok.

@isabelleesiegel At home I use a desktop with a 27in 1440p monitor so I can have several windows open without losing text quality. Particularly when using SPSS and R. It's been great when crunching data.
For a laptop I would recomend a Dell XPS 15 or something similar with good computing power.

@IngramPsychLab People think the back of the Declaration of Independence hides a secret treasure map but it's actually just the dog petting clause and a picture of a cute puppy.

[Connad Higgins @ConnadHiggins]

@IngramPsychLab No. It's in the small print of all contracts and other official documents. The dog's needs always take priority.

[Connad Higgins @ConnadHiggins]

@IngramPsychLab @TexasTech @ttupsychscience Way to go. Congratulations.

[Connad Higgins @ConnadHiggins]

@DrChristyRogers But also...

@DrChristyRogers I'm not crying you're crying.

@derekdbfmorgan Or obscure and void of theory... Or uses theories from 900 different fields.

The woman leading this is wonderful. If you're in teaching or academia I'd pop in if you're free.
