Wow this is a co-author of
"When looking 'hot' means not feeling cold: Evidence that self-objectification inhibits feelings of being cold"

Majorities view research scientists as intelligent (89%) and focused on solving real-world problems (65%). Communication is seen as an area of relative weakness for scientists. Big partisan differences on trust.

I am so excited to see Bluesky getting some traction! I missed the academic community 💕. I made the #CommTwitter list, but now I feel like we need a new discipline hashtag to find and engage with folks here! Any suggestions?

My love language is telling people that love languages were invented by a Baptist preacher who didn’t want to help his wife out around the house and constructed an entire pseudopsychology to help him justify it.
