Like Octavia E. Butler said, “We don’t have to wait for anything at all. What we have to do is start.” “Do the thing and you will have the power.”

No matter what you think of Hasan this is a great time to see which politicians are incapable of staying on their message. Imagine being asked about a streamer & answering directly instead of bulldozing & talking about what you wanted to talk about on tv anyways
What does it feel like to sing like this? Perfect clarity, pitch, harmony
🎃 Imani Gandy Corn 🎃@angryblacklady.blacksky.app · 2mo agoDolly Parton and Patti LaBelle playing their acrylics. Two icons.
I have been watching videos of Dolly Parton performing live all evening, and it has really hammered home that Dolly Parton had the most beautiful voice with astonishing clarity and perfect pitch. Her voice control was unbelievable. A gift to the world.
If you do #dyadic data analysis of any kind, consider filling out our survey; we'd love to learn what y'all are doing with your dyadic data!
McKell Jorgensen-Wells@mjorgwells.bsky.social · 2mo agoI'm starting my dissertation research on the use of / barriers to dyadic data analysis in relationships research! If you've used dyadic data in your research, I'd love for you to take my and @johnsakaluk.bsky.social‘s survey: uwo.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_.... Thank you!
I hope the Fever get rid of Sophie Cunningham as soon as possible. She is a bigot. The @wnba.com needs to do a better job managing the provocateurs who are now going to be showing up to Fever games. It's insane to me that league leadership is lining up on the wrong side of this issue. Appalling.

Excited to share a paper recently accepted at Nature Mental Health! 😄 For decades, we've assumed that covariance among psychopathology informs comorbidity. What if we’ve been wrong?

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios
![That’s probably the most famous scene in the movie, the campfire scene.
I know. He said, “You can’t punch a horse.” I said, “You’ll never see it again.” I kept saying, “You’re absolutely right. It’s out!” Then, when he left, I crumpled up all his notes, and I tossed it in the wastepaper basket. And John Calley, who was running [production at] Warner Bros. at the time, said, “Good filing.” That was the end of it. You say yes, and you never do it.
That’s great advice for life.
It is. Don’t fight them. Don’t waste your time struggling with them and trying to make sense to them. They’ll never understand.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:yvbszlkc7d75ixkid5g2zmw7/bafkreiar4z6n6pfk7wob2gznv6l6euw7ltxbetgto5drfd4wqzjalldp5m)

Candace is the expert on kids and social media that politicians and the media pretend Jonathan Haidt is. And here she is debunking his whole schtick.
Candice Odgers@candiceodgers.bsky.social · 4mo agoScary stories about teens sell. The data tells a different story. After decades studying adolescent mental health, here's what I found: This isn't an anxious generation. It's a resilient one. Let's start treating them that way. go.ted.com/candiceodgers

The more often you hear something, the more likely you are to believe that it is true. But please, don't believe everything you hear about teens today. Science and how well they are doing, despite the suffering of adults around them, tells a different story.
