In 2014 I introduced a replication project in my grad research methods class. I taught this version of the class 4 times (no longer teach it). Some tallies: 9 published replication papers; 30 grad student authors; 19 *open* data sets; materials, syntax, etc also open (all on OSF). Check them out 👇

Today’s Aussie adventures:
Ferry from Circular Quay to Watson’s Bay for a nice walk on a trail to a lighthouse with fish and chips and beer at the end.
Then walked from Bondi Beach to Coogee Beach with another beer at the end.
Last will be buses back to Erko for a bite to eat and… beer! 🍺

if you’ve had Szechuan peppercorns do you experience them more as
a) tingly (like a vibration) or
b) numbing (like super weak lidocaine)

I could’ve done it without the choc-top. (But glad I didn’t cuz that was good. Highly recommend the cherry ripe at Cinema Nova, Carlton, VIC)

It’s happened now. I bought a “choc-top” to help me regulate my fear.
Should I - a person who doesn't like horror or go out of her way to feel scared BUT who nevertheless liked A Quiet Place, Get Out, the original Nightmare on Elm Street - see Weapons? Will I survive?

OMG - So I'm in Australia and this is what every 19-year-old guy looks like right now. Jacob Elordi (the actor/teenage dirtbag shown here) is Australian... so blame Australia I guess? Or Elordi?
