Election coverage is so stressful why not watch a movie and unwind:

Here's what's not going to change: I'm going to wake up tomorrow and try to be kind to folks around me.

Trying out Bluesky as this place has become increasingly sad and Elon-ified. Come join! Seems to me that more and more reputable accounts are migrating, especially post election. Same handle .bsky.social

It's really cool that Tom Brady got to be there for the Eagles' two Super Bowl wins! He might be a good luck charm. Have a great night!

Sam Gershman writes beautifully about how theory-free neuroscience prevents the field from reaching its promise. Beautiful and true. Most folks do not test hypotheses. Running a NHST does not a hypothesis make. thetransmitter.org/theoretical-ne…

My lab was totally destroyed tonight by an Iranian missile. Nobody was hurt. Flies, plasmids, cells, equipment - all gone. Heart breaking. If during the course of the past 16 years, you have received something from my lab - please keep them safe.
