I think I'd feel slightly fraudulent putting something on there.

But you've gotta love how that picture makes him look like he's possessed. Though more in a too much Spice way than a classic demon one.

I have more books than I can read, so it's unclear why I still get excited when a new one arrives.

For academic book chapters (in monographs) what do people think are minimum and maximum lengths? I sort of feel 10k words is the max acceptable. Any thoughts on this?

Post-Gettier #epistemology may have yielded a picture of #knowledge that is both historiographically & philosophically misleading—or so Maria Rosa Antognazza argued in her posthumous book. Check out postdoctoral fellow Boaz Schuman’s review of the📘! 👇 philarchive.org/rec/SCHHIL-3 #philsky #HPS

Overheard one of my son's friends saying to the other 'Mother Jefferson is baking cinnamon rolls' which made me feel like I should look like this:

Researchgate job suggestions for me are always pleasingly random, but I really don't get why they keep including Hockey Coach?
Jobs I might be interested in according to Researchgate and one of them is Hockeycoach in Twente, NL

THE EPISTEMIC INJUSTICE RESEARCH PROGRAMME: DEGENERATIVE OR PROGRESSIVE? - Argumenta - Journal of Analytic Philosophy
The notion of epistemic injustice introduced by Miranda Fricker in 2007 raised interest in the harmful effects of prejudice within analytic philosophy and beyond. It inspired various projects linking ethics and epistemology. The notion, originally used to capture the epistemic disadvantage that people experience for their race or gender, has been applied to an increasing

Patrick Hassan is getting vulnerable in his account of the sublime in ancient ruins. From our latest issue - and open access 🔓. doi.org/10.1093/aest... #philsky
I propose that ancient ruins can be dynamically sublime insofar as they vividly express an existential threat to the human observer, and to humanity generally—namely, the power of the forces of nature to overwhelm over time. Ancient ruins can be foreboding environments for this reason, and this provides the basis for sublime feeling.

There are few things more boring than trying to police the boundaries of 'proper' philosophy. But it's one of the perennials in the social maneuvering of philosophers.

When I give blood, I always think of Lucy in Dracula, being kept alive by transfusions from her admirers. Was she a universal recipient? Maybe because she had been bitten? Or were the guys just magically all compatible?

We can walk and chew gum at the same time, folks. In other words, we can – and obviously should – be concerned about more than one kind of risk (and about their connection). Here’s my response to an earlier round of this ridiculous polarization. royalsocietypublishing.org/rsos/article...

If you're even having to have an argument over whether your passenger was truly 'sucked out of the window', you've perhaps not provided perfect service as an airline.
