@profbrucehood.bsky.social Yes, by now 3-minute theses have become a worldwide phenomenon & a wonderful, more factual alternative to TED Talks. They're also fantastic examples of persuasive yet (epistemologically) responsible language use. Well worth studying their rhetorical moves & phrasing.

@mjcrockett.bsky.social hi Molly - don’t know if you saw my launch of my-thesis.org but it is an attempt to promote authentic human communication. Let me know your thoughts

The internet is filling with AI-generated content. So I built something different. www.my-thesis.org indexes real researchers explaining their work in short talks—searchable by topic, institution, and keywords. Human knowledge. Direct from the source. #3MT #OpenScience #ResearchCommunication

Disappointed that every time I open BBC iPlayer, “Uncanny” is promoted on the home page. I know people love to believe in the supernatural but give it a break

Just listened to a talk about vaping by Dr Jasmine Khouja where apparently “monkey jizz” is a real flavour! How would anyone know?

Only if you equate happiness with pursuing personal gratification- it’s note a waste of time if you enrich the lives of others which leads to more authentic & sustainable happiness

One of the delights of international publishing is discovering the variations in cover designs. My book has been sold to 23 foreign territories so I am looking forward to the different interpretations. Here is the first from Spain.
