The Mamdani 'Auntie' thing is funny as there's a meme in conservative circles derived from a Waytz et al (2019) paper, which is used mocks liberals for 'caring for trees'. While the 'Autie' claim is a useful rhetorical device, conservatives are also probably unlikely to extend kin-terms to non-kin

I might be wrong (and this seems likely, given I threw this model together in about 3 hours), but an ABM sharing model assumptions shows a strong counter for the claims in "High rates of polygyny do not lock large proportions of men out of the marriage market" by Gaddy et al (2025)

I've kept a record of all my first author papers and how hard it was to get some of them published. Including dates, and outlet. It's a pretty useful tool for showing supervisees.

On the train this morning I spied the front page of the Daily Mail.
Anyone reading this is not media literate. Putting aside the factual claims, the framing and design is explicitly propagandist. I was genuinely shocked.

I'm all for being a smart-arse in your journal papers... but I thought this was a google-doc auto-edit... but it's actually the title of the paper. We can include emojis in titles *and* reference them that way!?

I peruse Kickstarter regularly.
If I had an uninterrupted 6 - 8 weeks and decided I wanted a side-hustle, it's unambiguous:
Learn how to model sexy ladies in Blender. It's basically free money. This is one of, like, 15 similiar projects.

This is so nice! There is some great new functionality in here. But the aesthetics? A DARK MODE!? [chef's kiss].

Seriously, bruniquel is beautiful, and the castle is very worth visiting. And the displays for the cave are great.
