If Putin thinks installing a repressive regime will quench Ukraine's thirst for resistance, then science would like a word with him.

I'm in a bit of a pickle, trying to make a @Qualtrics survey work for children on an iPad. The community so far has been silent. If you know anyone who could be of help (in exchange for beers or euros), please let me know.

.@EvolHumBehav’s remembrance of Tooby’s genius is live—ft favorite quotes ( their meanings). Incl:
Entertain all hypotheses
But is it true?
“Learning” is not an “alternative hypothesis”
I will only know that our interaction is one-shot if I kill you

I'm delighted to announce a new book coming out this month: The Oxford Handbook of Evolution & the Emotions (TOHEE)!

This book took several years and a whole LOT of teamwork to put together.
It's an interdisciplinary, cross-cultural effort. 👇🧵
