Today, due to the recent spread of (false) narratives about trans perpetrators of mass shootings, I decided to look up search stats for the term “trans shooter.” The term was hardly used at all before May 2022, when the shootings in Buffalo and Uvalde happened.

An excellent article (use link). Its time to abandon nonverbal behaviour as a deception cue. 50 years of research show no support for it. Polygraph, voice stress analysis, microexpressions, eye tracking - its all pseudoscience. #Deception crestresearch.ac.uk/download/490...

Save the School of Music protest. It's a very bittersweet feeling watching these incredible musicians play. This is the talent we will be losing if Cardiff University go ahead with their shortsighted plans.

Just listened to this ep today - Kate Steel's research examines body cam data from police officers attending domestic violence call-outs in the UK. Fascinating emerging findings and great to hear Kate is working on translating these into practical training to improve police communication
