I don't know how I should feel about the fact that I'm a skilled immigrant of extraordinary ability, who isn't allowed to decide his own fate. So, in the coming few weeks, people who can vote in the US will decide whether I & people like me are welcome in this country or not.🤞🏾

📢'The World Is Your Oyster' is for those who are born in global north countries--don't experience visa bureaucracy & emotional burden that non-white global south scholars do. Citizenship is a privilege that we need to recognize in the academe. 1/n nature.com/articles/d4158…

There's been a lot of ~discussion~ on Academic Twitter recently about positionality, reflexivity, and ethics in qualitative research. This feels like a good time to remind quantitative researchers that this applies to *all* paradigms. [see our paper, psyarxiv.com/xvrhm/]

Just a sporadic reminder that plagiarism rarely involves a mustachio-twirling supervillain cackling at the prospect of pulling one over on you. 13 years of teaching writing, and I've only had one, maybe 2, supervillains, tops. Most are just scrambling students who need a hand.

I've been using Mendeley Desktop daily for years, & have an annotated library of thousands of pdfs. Today, I switched to Zotero. Here's a 🧵of tips on how to do this, if you're also tired of Elsevier's BS and want to make the switch w/minimal effort while maintaining workflow.

“This grant proposal describes breeding experiments in peas. This reviewer remains unconvinced about the translational benefits. Applicant should switch to a more economically important crop like wheat. Applicant’s productivity also an issue, no paper published in last 8 years”.

Requirements like "at least 1 or 2 papers for a PhD" or "10 papers for a promotion" are the root of all evil.
