Today on International Women's Day, and everyday, we celebrate the extraordinary women that help psychological practice, science, and education thrive - particularly those women who have come before and left legacies that continue to shape us to this day.

β€œProfessionals” healing trauma with rocks, sounds or energy enters the chat.

Honestly, I still don’t understand how people can fall for this nonsense.

Unpopular opinion 🫣

Attacking a Muslim country during the holy month of Ramadan is essentially the equivalent of striking a Christian country during Christmas.

Imagine the reactions if the roles were exchanged.

Can you imagine? 1 out of 3 videos on social media media are misleading… this is extremely concerning, specially for those who are more vulnerable

I’m grateful I didn’t get my first choice. It gave me the opportunity to continue training as a school psychologist with a strong team of supervisors ... and, just as importantly, with a wonderful, fun, and truly collegial psychology department.

To all my younger colleagues, I wish you the very best. I hope you manage to get a good night’s sleep tonight.

I was in your shoes five years ago. Even though I didn’t match to my first choice, I completed my residency in a school setting with the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board.

✨ Match Day is tomorrow ✨

πŸ“’ Tomorrow is an important day for doctoral students in psychology across Canada and the US; it is #MatchDay. It’s the day they learn where they will complete their residency, the final step in their clinical training before finishing their doctoral degree.

@julielajoie13.bsky.social I agree with everything you said, except for one thing. Killing people does not equal mental illness. In some cases it is true, but most are not.

I am not going to repost the vile and racist image that Trump posted last night of President & First Lady Obama because it is beyond disgusting. Trump is a vile racist as is every Republican that continues to support him. I don’t want to hear mumbling from Mike Johnson or stoic silence from Thune.

β€œPeople don’t understand what this job is,” he said, adding, β€œYou cannot pick and choose, because among the very rich is a higher percentage of unpleasant and not very attractive people. Capitalism is a rough system.”
In defending his pursuit of Mr. Epstein and candidly describing the burden of raising money, Dr. Botstein gave insight into how the need to attract dollars can appear to run headlong into an academic institution’s stated values.
Mr. Epstein gave prolifically to many charities and universities, including Harvard and M.I.T., and the Wall Street Journal report showed that his network of contacts was wider than had been thought, including prominent figures like the linguist Noam Chomsky and Lawrence Summers, the former Treasury secretary and president of Harvard. Dr. Summers sought money for a poetry foundation, led by his wife, Elisa New, a Harvard literature professor. Mr. Summers declined to comment.
β€œWould we accept money from Jeffrey Epstein today? No,” Dr. Botstein said, describing the former donor as a β€œmonster” and β€œtruly evil man.” β€œWe had no idea, the public record had no indication, that he was anything more than an ordinary β€” if you could say such a thing β€” sex offender who had been convicted and went to jail.”

As more academic names keep coming up in the Epstein files, I keep thinking about this NYT interview with the Bard president from a few years ago, and wondering how many people were rationalizing in similar ways.
