Over the course of my career, I have been an Associate Editor at three journals. Finding reviewers was one of the most difficult parts of the job. Today is the fifth anniversary of the funniest "decline to review" notes I received. I post it below for your reading please. 1/4

Last year psychologists signed a letter supporting campus protests. I too support them. But the letter also dismissed the pain of Jewish students who felt gaslit and abandoned. It didn’t just support protesters, it erased the experiences of an entire community.

Being a parent is realizing you know a ridiculous amount on a topic in which you have zero interest. I can name 50 Pokémon, tell you their special powers, and explain the entire evolution process... but I still can’t find my wallet half the time. #ParentLife #PokéMasterByAccident

Once, we ran a study on Prolific and a participant wrote on Reddit that the study “Felt like I was losing the will to live.” I went on the Prolific Subreddit (24k members!) and asked what matters. Here is what they told me. A thread on happier participants and better studies 1/9

On the drive home from school, I ask my 9yr old son, “boychik, what’s the meaning of life?”, curious whether he would even understand the question. Without hesitation, he responded, “Love, the meaning of life is love”. #proud #theworldneedsmorelikehim

Can we please have a moratorium on conference organizers demanding slides a month prior?! When did this insanity become the norm? I am typically fiddling with my slide deck until right before I start speaking. #AcademicTwitter #FirstWorldProblems

Just crafted a word cloud from my academic publication titles using a website so niche, it's like discovering a secret underground club for scholarly nerds: shiny.rcg.sfu.ca/u/rdmorin/s… 🤓

New stage in life unlocked! I've upped my iPhone font size to 'Alte Kaker'. Now every text looks like a billboard, and I can finally read my messages without squinting like a detective in a bad crime novel. #aginggracefully

Just got a request from an academic journal to review my own paper. 📚 They must've heard I'm my own worst critic! 😅 #SelfReviewExpert #AcademicTwitter

Today, my 9-year-old hit a major milestone: instead of joining in my antics, he hit me with a 'You're weird, Dad.' Well... he's not wrong. Guess I levelled up in the dad-joke game! 🕺😄 #DadLife #WeirdAndProud

I’m torn about which #Barbenheimer movie to go see. I’ve got an affinity for anything that whiffs of political psychology, but #Barbie has the better merch.
