FINALLY popped into the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum. After years of walking by this building a million times and thinking I'd check it out "someday," today was the day. It was @glennf.com's great new book, "How Comics Were Made," that finally made me commit to paying this place a visit.

We told our 4-year-old that we planned a mini family vacation, and her first question was, "Do they have a library there?" I think we're doing something right.

“Around the world children are already missing health care and food because of the assault on the agency that Kennedy founded to uphold our values and protect our interests. To billionaires in the White House, it may seem like a game. But to anyone with a heart, it’s about children’s lives”

Ep 104! My passion for persuasion science meets my fascination w/ historical printing. Angelina Lippert (Exec Director + Curator, Poster House) talks posters, defined as public-facing notices meant to persuade. You'll also hear from brilliant letterpress printer Amos Kennedy. Links below.

I started working on this print at the end of last year, and my relationship with it has already evolved. I stand by the message. Science is a process, not a pile of facts to memorize. But we need to protect what we know, too. The past few days have made that look grim.

Our new edited book, "The Handbook of Personalized Persuasion," is open for pre-order! So, if you've got a spare $300 lying around (or access to a library with a budget), several years of work could be yours! Very proud of this. More to come closer to release day www.routledge.com/The-Handbook...

Ad in the The Ohio Statesman newspaper, January 02, 1865. If anyone knows where I can get some, this might be our best bet while we wait to see what happens with NIH.

Cool cool cool. We submitted a revised NSF proposal in July that got favorable reviews the first time, and it's a project I'm excited about. Was hoping we'd get a decision before the government got rocked, but alas. Has anyone heard anything about the Social Psych program in particular?

I've been researching the history of printing in my city of Columbus, OH, and I came across this 1839 news article. It just feels like you could see exactly the same thing now. "Pocketed the cash" is not a phrase I expected to see in something from 186 years ago.

With a grand exodus from Instagram to Bluesky, my art and science social media feeds are about to exist in the same account, and I think I'm okay with it. Letterpress friends, please enjoy some social science. Social science friends, please enjoy some (more) printing content.

I'm finding a groove making letterpress pocket notebooks. These were a gift to @mattgrizz.bsky.social's lab, which I've been crashing while on sabbatical. Covers printed w/ vintage metal & wood type on a signpress. Recycled paper inside. (If your lab wants something like this, we can talk!)

A good strategy for this is to maintain your CV as a publicly viewable (but only privately editable) Google Doc. Every time you update your CV, it's automatically updated online and it remains your own personal copy.

New paper on informed consent! I’m so proud of this work led by @rachelschlund.bsky.social. We show that regardless of how clueless WE feel about the terms we agree to when signing a contract or clicking accept, others assume we knew what we were getting into. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Someone mentioned staying up until midnight tonight for NYE, and the thought of doing that honestly hadn't even occurred to me.
