Professor of Psychology and a teensy bit artist. New Zealand. I study how memory can fail us, esp. in the criminal justice system, with the goal of preventing miscarriages of justice. I will always support the underdog—especially if it's an actual dog.

Look. What I say to you is this.
Raise a glass this Christmas to all those who we've:
Made jobless
Given pay cuts to
Booted from emergency housing
Denied medical care to
Stripped benefits from
Vilified and scapegoated
Driven offshore
For they have made me and my mates happier and richer

📣 Working from home results in lower performance ratings📣
Managers give lower performance ratings to teleworkers than to office workers, even when holding performance constant.
Female teleworkers face an even greater disadvantage.

Getting your wisdom teeth removed? Knocked a tooth out? Getting braces on or off? Call me.

I've got the hiccups and every time I get the hiccups I worry I'm going to be like that guy on That's Incredible who had them for years. The 80s really ruined me.
