@linguistMasoud If you have a grant, you are likely to hire people on it, and purchase things with it. That requires more Human Resources personnel, more purchasing support, more office space, accounting, etc - the univ. would have needed some of that, but they end up needing to hire more staff

Starting this morning, we are back on @PlanetWordDC running cool studies about language science! Stay tuned for our weekly schedule and more details about the project. We hope to see you!

Found a throwback photo from three years ago featuring Aela, @ronewman1’s dog, helping me start my thesis. If you need a reviewer for a paper about dog snoozles or zooming really fast, I recommend Aela.

Let's all be very clear about one thing this week: counting every ballot is not stealing an election. It's the democratic process.

Joe Newman was 5 when the 1918 flu pandemic broke out. Now 107, he's in lockdown with his fiancée, Anita — who recently turned 100.

Though their combined age may be 207, he says, "the years we can look forward to ... even if they're just days."
