The same kind of predictive risk algorithm that determined I don't deserve care for my ADHD could also someday decide that my untreated ADHD puts my kid at risk for abuse/neglect & take her away from me. This doesn't protect kids, it terrifies parents out of seeking care for them

@brooklynvegan 3rd behind devotion(1) and teen dream(2) but to be fair I also stopped paying attention to the new releases after this

Kids from higher socioeconomic backgrounds are nearly 6X more likely to make special requests from teachers--contributing to inequalities in the classroom https://t.co/LduCtu1KoZ

This is why it's critical to offer similar support and flexibility to everyone in the classroom.

I wrote about how the assertion that privileged people are going to find their circumstances unchanged is both incorrect and anesthetizing: https://t.co/yyXlZBCYgH

Amazing @zotero feature I just discovered:

If you highlight text in a pdf, then copy-paste it into another document, it pastes as a quote with a reference and page number!

@JoeHilgard you may want to try before you buy. the clicking can be very satisfying but also very loud. ymmv

[Duke Lemur Center @DukeLemurCenter]

How do you reduce, reuse, or recycle? At the DLC, we repurpose all kinds of material for animal enrichment. Check out this video featuring lemurs investigating boxes, firehose, tires, and even tubing from a construction project onsite! #EarthDay

I have no words. For a small mistake, Mr. Loyla was shot by a police officer. His family fled the war in Congo to seek a better future in America. 💔💔💔

@Kane_WMC_Lab Garner's modern english usage told us to give it up a while ago (see alt text). (Yes, I have a copy of the grammar dictionary on hand.)

@PonziniG @AmandaKMontoya Visit the @DukeLemurCenter if you can! It looks like their on-site tours re-open in May. Their tickets are cheap but you have to reserve them in advance. It's worth it!

@jamesheathers I think it would help to think about this in broader systematic concerns--what's the minimum amount of fraud funding agencies are willing to put up with, as long as "good" and "reliable" research happens?

I volunteered for the Books for Prisoners organization in Champaign, Il, and I could on about the cruel and bureaucratic BS the prison system used to keep books out of their prisoners' hands. please share!!

This is a genuinely weird but very much real part of academic culture - it’s just a job, with its own set of pros and cons like any other. But once in people very often feel this intense pressure that unless they stick it out for a particular type of career track they failed…

@MarcusCrede on the internet, no one knows you're a full-time manager! (except for the subtwoted)

a love story: a ghost/computer virus has been haunting me for years, making it difficult to log on to my spectrum internet account (spooky) to remind me that I moved once and the specter misses me. the twist? it's spectrum and they want to let me know that they love me and see me
