Coming up in two weeks, a conference bringing together fields that have too long been siloed off from each other:
- work on agency within linguistics
- work on agency in philosophy/psychology
Conference is on zoom, and attendance is free

I'm debating creating a drag persona based on #Reviewer2 to just read prominent academics who make unsubstantiated claims. What should she be called? Ima Wright? Minnie Flaws? Other ideas? #AcademicChatter #academia #queer

Does anyone know of a study requiring participants to learn/induce quantity as the relevant variable? e.g., participants see and categorize sets of varying quantities w/ accuracy feedback (kids or adults, doesn't matter). @stricklandbrent @barner_ucsd @mcxfrank

Beautiful, pain-staking, and thought-provoking work by @middycasillas et al. showing that Tseltal Mayan children have no delay in language acquisition (compared to Western norms) despite minimal child directed speech.

Presentation advice I once got:
Say one thing and the audience takes away one thing.
Say two things and the audience takes away one thing.
Say three things and the audience takes away nothing.
