Great profile here by Zachary Groz of Hallie Shoffner, a farmer populist scaring the crap out of Tom Cotton in Arkansas. Cotton has spent $10 million already! Shoffner understands the problem with agricultural markets. prospect.org/2026/10/08/prairie-populist-crimson-red-arkansas-hallie-shoffner/

A few snapshots from today’s talks within the American Realism workshop in Mainz! Featuring Lisa Kampen, Michael Annacker, @sanderverhaegh.bsky.social, and Cornelis Menke. First talk by Gary Hatfield (not pictured). Full program here: american-realism.de/Consciousnes...

Lisa Kampen presenting on Mary Whiton Calkins and Hugo Münsterberg on whether the self can be an object for psychology

Michael Annacker on the real and the given in William James and C. I. Lewis. In the picture, a beautiful quote from James being pluralist about truth

Sander Verhaegh presenting on logical positivism and American psychology. In the picture, a very young Paul E. Meehl showing something to Herbert Feigl

Cornelis Menke presenting on Charles S. Peirce, Joseph Jastrow, and the notion of randomisation in their 1885 paper “On Small Differences of Sensation”

So happy to be part of this 2-days conference with people who really care about the history of philosophy and psychology in America! Perfectly organised with no parallel sessions by Matthias Neuber, this first day was a blast ✨

The talk was really good, so the paper should not disappoint — check it out!

Oh no, Gary Hatfield did it again! I was thinking of writing a project on the notion of attention at the turn of the nineteenth century. Turns out that I should have looked at the eighteenth instead. Truly we go forward in history only by going backward!

I’m going to try using BSky (also) to share some Peirce quotes out of context. Here is today’s: “Pure femininity can be conceived in a general way, but it cannot be realized even in consistent imagination. As for pure masculinity, it is an absurdity and nonsense, vox et praeterea nihil.”

Found another nineteenth-century philosopher who makes perception historical.

Quote from Marx, Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844: The forming of the five senses is a labor of the entire history of the world down to the present.

In the 1930s, a group of European philosophers fled fascism and reshaped American philosophy. Why did logical positivism have such an impact on US thought? And why did it play a central role in the culture wars of the 1950s and 1960s? Released today! Logical Positivism: An American History (1/3)

Yesterday was Day 1 of Descartes Lectures with amazing @serenekhader.bsky.social ! Particularly illuminating was her analysis of oppression as “social inclusion in unequal terms,” explaining why oppressed groups may comply with the society that’s oppressing them @tilburgphilosophy.bsky.social

In February, USA Rugby banned trans women from all levels of one of the world’s most inclusive sports. What happened next was telling. Across the country, teams refused to comply. The story of the Baltimore Ferals, who are pushing back: www.thebanner.com/sports/rugby...

Very pleased to see the cover of my first book — hopefully out in a few months! Although the design is Peirce-centred, I tried my best to put the guy in relation to Scottish, English, German, and other American philosophers & psychologists. Enjoy! #Peirce #psychology #pragmatism #hps #philosophy

I side with the screw. From Avery & Cross (1978), Experimental Methodology in Psychology

Lack of standardization, unreliability, and unanticipated introduction of extraneous variables, such as can occur when a rat in a sex study concentrates more on a shiny brass screw inadvertently exposed in the chamber than on the receptive female, all contribute to “apparatusistis” causing investigators to genuflect at the mere thought of replication.
