The National Science Foundation, a major government funder of basic science research, is being shaken up with over 1,000 grants already terminated and the White House looking to halve its budget.

Good news, meine #IOPsych freunde! They can't terminate your NSF grants if you don't have any!
Our field's inability to attract significant grant funding finally pays off.
Who's the loser now, psychopharmacology nerds @apadiv28.bsky.social?

On the occasion of my alleged death 109 years ago today, President Woodrow Wilson released this message in what is now recognized as a completely normal Presidential sentiment that should be shared with the Nation and the World, at large.

"Do you think you should be the leader?"
Choose your answer:
A. Yes
B. No
Scoring: Count the # of A and B answers. If the # of A answers is greater than 0, you should definitely NOT be the leader.

It's very simple:
Committee: "Do you want to be the academic Dept Chairperson?"
Person 1: Yes!
Person 2: No!
Comm: "Person 2 you are now the new Dept Chair."
Person 2: "No! I refuse! You can't make me!" Runs for the door.
Person 1: "But I have so many ideas!"
Comm: "Exactly."

Very true! I would often help my grad students this way by having them participate in weekend-long gardening projects at my home on Ware Street in Cambridge.
