The fiscal year is over. The dying Social, Behavioral, and Economic division of NSF ended up awarding 90 total grants this year, as opposed to ~700-800 in recent past years. Source: grantwitness.org/nsf/analyses...
The graph shows the cumulative number of awards made by month across this fiscal year, as compared to the last 6 fiscal years. The line for this year is total flat until June, but then finally gets up to 91 by October. In prior years the increase starts building earlier and ends on average in the 700-800 range (with variability, last year was only between 400-500).

It is really amazing scrolling through bluesky and seeing how many lives Dolly Parton's legacy of kindness touched. For my part, here is an article by a former student in my lab who wrote about Dolly' contribution to building the current gym at WU. www.willamettecollegian.com/post/an-hono...

a favorite bit of writing on Dolly: David Cantwell on "Coat of Many Colors" "I am poor, but I will be more than that. I *am* more than that. Despite your contempt, the things I love are worth loving."
Coat of Many Colors is not a documentary or even a memory, but a story she's telling herself. The adult Parton presents this childhood story says a lot about the survival tactics of poor kids generally, and of Dolly Parton specifically. It might, for example, explain Parton's flamboyant stage dress through the years. More substantially, it tells how a poor kid from the Blue Ridge Mountains has to make sense of life if she has ambitions, as we know Dolly Parton most certainly did. ...I am poor, but I will be more than that. I am more than that. Despite your contempt, the things I love are worth loving. And since my mother slaved over this amazing coat for me, I must be worth loving, too."

I've got a new blog post on cognitive offloading. Storing our memories outside our heads. Googling things rather than trusting our knowledge. And a few words on the costs of using AI in terms of learning, ownership of ideas, and feelings of self-efficacy. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/ment...

The Cost of Convenience: Calendars, Google, and AI
Our memories aren’t contained just within our heads. We offload them to pictures, social media, and devices. But this offloading carries risks.

They're forcing us to DIY the parts of society best managed by government: from disaster preparedness to education and public health. Because DIY saves billionaires a few bucks. And because DIY is so cognitively taxing that we can't strategize to fight them and can only fight each other for scraps.
