Check this out: the runtimes of the no. 1 songs for each year show a clear trend towards longer songs until around 1990, and since then they’ve been going down again. But here’s what caught my eye: they’ve excluded two songs because they’re too long. 1972’s “American Pie” & “All Too Well” by Taylor

So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!" And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

Nice write-up by @psypost.bsky.social on our latest paper on psilocybin vs. escitalopram for depression and the distinct mechanisms behind their effects: www.psypost.org/psilocybin-a... #neuroskyence

This new article in the Journal of Eating Disorders seems to uncritically portray psilocybin as a truth serum that can accurately recover "historical autobiographical material" from repressed traumatic memories... What could possibly go wrong? jeatdisord.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

My kid is making me watch a God-awful 90 minute film that some YouTube numpty made entirely in Roblox. Parenthood is just one humiliation and degradation after another. 😫

One way of thinking about it is, why wouldn’t I use ChatGPT to write a paper? 1. It’s a matter of self-respect. 2. I believe my writing says something basic about who I am. 3. I believe research and writing are valuable activities. +

‘Scrap’ as in not implement them in the first place. This will only lower prices compared to what they would have been had the checks been introduced next month. So it’s very much a notional saving and continuation of business as usual. 🤷‍♂️ #BrexitReality #EUReset

Jon Stewart is a legend & the way this show is trying to explain to a mainstream audience the gravity what is happening in the US is amazing. It was both thrilling & terrifying to be part of it. Thank you @TheDailyShow 👏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG7C...

When I first started working with resting state fMRI as a postdoc, there was a lot of skepticism about what we could learn from it. 20 years later, it's hard to imagine where the field of neuroscience would be without it. Here's a summary 🧠 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Steve Baker should get on his bike and look for work, and keep looking until he finds some.

“What I don’t need is: Here’s how to apply for a mid-ranking job in a corporate,” said Baker, a prominent figure in the party’s Brexit wars of the 2010s. “As soon as I apply, they know who I am, they do the Googling and they don’t want me.”

Anybody here going to be at Psychedelic Science in Denver next month? I'm giving a two-handed talk with the mighty Prof. David Nutt. Also doing a solo talk with a gratuitously provocative title ("Can neuroimaging save psychedelic drug development?"). Hey, don't hate the player, hate the game, yo.

Absolutely surreal to have lived through the Napster days and watched as the titans of industry moved hell and high water to lock down any possible chance that someone's song might get swapped online without giving the studios a cut and now those same people are just like "well we gotta steal music"

This is a fascinating and concerning thread - people using ChatGPT are becoming convinced they are prophets, that they have awakened 'true' sentient AI, that they're talking to angels, etc. AI-induced psychosis (or at least, delusions) is apparently a thing now...? www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/co...
