It was completely cloudy in upstate NY during the eclipse, but that didn’t put a damper on experiencing totality for nearly three minutes. What an awe-inspiring moment.

The perfect ice cream combo is a 60/40 split of cookies & cream and coffee. There is no other correct answer.

Sure, kids get up early on Christmas morning. You know who gets up earlier? My geriatric beagle (hungry at baseline) on prednisone (hungrier) who eats a low-protein prescription diet (she’s the hungriest). The 3am hangries are real, and so are the bags under my eyes 🥱

Your regular reminder that we, your professors, LOVE IT when you email us after the fact to let us know what you're up to. Truly one of the most gratifying parts of this work.

I was feeling bad about doing a subpar job of teaching enough content in my advanced stats course this semester.

Then two students came to office hours and demonstrated tremendous growth in both skill & confidence compared to where they started.

A nice reminder that less is often much, much more.

I wear winter boots in to my building from the parking lot, then change into "indoor" shoes when I arrive. After debating with a colleague about whether this is an odd practice (it's not!), it dawned on me: I'm becoming Mr. Rogers.

It's time to share my annual over-the-top fancy pie photos. Bourbon cinnamon pecan, home-grown apple with lattice top, and pumpkin with ginger snap crust. Not my best work, but a strong showing nonetheless.

Does your ability to learn from a lecture take a hit when your neighbor is playing games on their iPad? Does screen orientation impact this kind of distraction?

Come see us at @psychonomicsociety.bsky.social poster session (3016) Friday at 6pm to find out!

This is my first in-person Psychnomics since Montreal. It is so good to be back!

Mega-kudos to the organization for the warm welcome to undergrads. My student is having a life-changing experience, and it's really great to see it unfold here.

Psychonomics starts next week and we still don't have hashtags, so I created a new feed to capture posts.

bsky.app/profile/did:...

All posts with "psynom23" (the official hashtag), "psynomnom" (tag for food recommendations), or "psychonomic" (psychonomics also works) will show up on the feed.

Another reason to work at Fisher? Two excellent soup choices every single day. Today, I filled up my soup loyalty card with the final punch, and my next soup is *free*. Broccoli cheddar never tasted so good.

Anywho, APPLY to work with us!

Folks, celebrate your friends. I know you probably know this, but it's easy to forget. Take joy in their successes and cheer on their moments in the sun, and always let them know they make your life better. It matters.
