Not to brag, but FedEx left a note on my door that they missed me.

I am in the middle of #writing my #Phd #dissertation and am actively reading/skimming 100s of papers. Symbols to track different aspects of the paper is amazingly helpful. #phd #phdchat #science #lifehacks #academic

Me: *passes teller second note* ok, now I would like to make a deposit

Dog Cop: you ran a gray light
Dog Driver: but it was still gray when i went through the intersection
Dog Cop: no it was gray

I printed two images, one on paper and one on acetate. Each is individually indistinguishable from random, but when overlaid they reveal an elephant.

people say the truth is stranger than fiction like it’s a surprise, but the universe has had like fourteen billion more years than us to come up with stuff

I just realized it's Friday, which means #FridayNightZillow (I hope), and I truly felt a bit happier.

Since I know a lot of people who make light things <raises hand> struggle with feeling like their work isn't important, this is worth saying:

Don't dismiss the power of entertainment and frivolity. People need breaks.

You need a solid resume to get a job outside of academia. But I’ve seen SO many resumes from academics that don’t understand the assignment.

This thread is an extension of my popular resume advice from August 2022.

Hi Mastodon! 🐘

I'm Michèle, an assistant professor in psychological methods from the Netherlands. I’m looking forward to talk and read about my research interests here on Mastodon (but I will definitely get distracted by funny animals and DIY videos). Topics you’ll find on my timeline:

🔓 #openscience

🤖 #statcheck- a spellchecker for statistics

🔬 #metascience to improve psychological research

Looking forward to finding my way here!

I don’t like to being over tweets from the #birdsite as a general rule but this one on #AIArt is a point well made.

judge: how do you find the defendant?

me as the jury foreman: he’s usually here when we get here, your highness sir

One of the many things that sort of frighten me away from posting any sort of political opinion on here is the fact that any time I wish to critique anything going on The Left, I feel compelled to start with the disclaimer, "I consider myself to be liberal, but..." because most people automatically assume that if I dare to criticize their side, it must be because I'm conservative.

I'm sure it's just as bad among Republicans, but let's face it, how many of those are we encountering on Mast?

What you see on this photo is not from the Empire Strikes Back.

No, it is German police protecting a coal mine excavator in #Lützerath - a village planned to be demolished by the energy company RWE to extract coal that is not even needed for the energy security of Germany.
