This podcast is an excellent introduction to the field of psychology, warts & all. @paulbloomatyale and @peez have a great dynamic and cover topics in an accessible way yet also get into nuances on fairly niche topics. Usually on here I’m lamenting terrible things. This is good.

Good article from Phillip who has put a lot of time to understand these dynamics.

This is an excellent nuanced piece and not just because it cites a certain anthropologist.

Good balanced thread by Gideon.

Good article on a weird thing we've seen in some of the gurus we've covered (Russel Brand, James Lindsay) and a bunch we haven't (like Stefan Molyneux).

This is a very good article on the Twitter Files and to my reading gets most things right.

Very good thread by Helen on why the Taibbi thread really isn’t good journalism.

Very good thread revealing how far removed the conspiracy theorist accounts are from reality. This is all climategate v2.0.

A fantastic & truly depressing episode on one of Alex’s recent pre-trial depositions. Lowlights include Alex being unable to name any of the children who died at Sandy Hook & claiming that a grieving parent was doing academy award winning acting.

Good thread especially towards the end.

Manvir is a wealth of excellent threads and good papers. This is another example. I agree with the sentiment expressed about Graeber & Wengrow’s work at the end of the thread too.

lol, word for word that is exactly what people say when accusing climate scientists of lying. Never mind eh, you should read Stuart Ritchie’s book on Science Fictions if this is a genuine interest and spend less time on lab leak Twitter.
