The Emma Frost x Miss Piggy comic has hit the internet and it's so, so, so much more magnificent than I ever could have hoped for

Emma Frost: "Emma Frost, darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your mind to ascertain if you're telling the truth?"

Miss Piggy: "But of course, darling I am an open book, a tell-all memoir."

Emma Frost telepathically witnessing the entirety of Miss Piggy's life.

Wolverine: "Frost? She legit?"
Emma Frost: "She's..She's... She's everything. And I would die for her."

I guess some people may think that they have this feeling all the time when they are awake, just like many people tend to say that the moon is only visible at night. Being conscious of something is not the same as being aware of one's own existence; I lost it a few times when writing this.

Psychological Science special issue call 📣 Ever had your research denigrated bc it's "only descriptive", "what's the mechanism though?" and "but what are the theoretical implications?" Now has come your time to shine. Send your best descriptive work! www.psychologicalscience.org/publications...

Psychological Science invites submissions that advance psychological science through careful description of psychological phenomena. Psychological research often focuses on explaining and predicting phenomena before we have a sufficiently detailed understanding of them. It can be difficult to build strong theories on incomplete empirical foundations of the phenomena themselves. Careful descriptive research helps establish shared empirical reference points developed around well-characterized phenomena. As such, descriptive research contributes to psychological science both by improving our understanding of the phenomena themselves and by providing a stronger foundation for future theory-building, explanation, and prediction.

We are interested in manuscripts that:

Deepen our understanding of psychological phenomena, including what they look like, how they vary, and how they unfold;
Draw on a variety of sources of evidence and methods, including qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods approaches; research conducted in naturalistic settings; intensive, longitudinal, or small-sample designs; and open or large-scale datasets;
Provide necessary context for interpreting what is being described, including who is represented in the data, the settings and circumstances in which phenomena occur, and the broader social contexts in which they are situated; and/or
Make a substantive contribution to psychological science through the quality, depth, or significance of the description provided.
The deadline for submitting regular manuscripts is April 15, 2027. Registered Reports will also be considered. The deadline for submitting Stage 1 Registered Reports is November 15, 2026. Authors should indicate in the “Comments to Editor” box during submission that the manuscript is intended for the “Descriptive Research in Psychological Science” special issue.

Have you read something by Karl Friston? If so, do you feel that you understand his writing reasonably well? I keep finding these parts in his writing that seem (is it just me?) to say sth trivial or clearly incorrect in such a subtly convoluted way that they take considerable effort to parse.

Maybe someone could help me understand if Dynamical Causal Modelling, which, apparently, is an important causal modelling framework in fMRI, makes any sense? I was asked to form an opinion, but some major papers on DCM were (co)authored by Friston, and I find much of his writing unreadable.

In the end, everything we do we do for love. Most of us don't do much because of love, though, to the detriment of the people who are around. In this way, we fail these people, and we fail ourselves.

Firstly, rules are mostly either chosen or discovered rather then made. Secondly, it would be quite nonsensical to, as a general *rule* (yup), make instances of some kind with the goal of breaking them. Don't even get me started about this injustice/courage bs. 3/10

The mean is never misleading; an *interpretation* of the mean might be (and often is). Also, there is no such thing as a meaningful ordinal regression model of *behavioural* data.

This is my journey as a careful reviewer of UKLG quotes. This one is clearly quite nonsensical. Not even Ursula knew what point she was (barely) trying to make here. Which is why I read it as an amateurish attempt at poetry, and I generously assume it is sincere. Hence, my rating of 7/10.

This is my journey as a careful reviewer of UKLG quotes. While reading this part, we are supposed to be impressed by the approach of some guy to science, but the approach is incoherent. How can one know that something they have not yet learned will be of no use in the future? My rating: 5/10
