I've been thinking about how so many generalisations about getting older (e.g., getting more conservative as you get older, going through a midlife crisis, etc.) only really apply to boomers but don't hold for other generations

My new paper, "The Matching Problem for Evolutionary Psychiatry", is now published in Philosophical Psychology! I'm very excited about this one.

wait so they'll trust a christian science minister but definitely not a doctor? 😂
anyway I'm glad it's sorted!
things that 3-year-olds like:
— day 1 of holiday: games, stories, music, snacks, exploring, the outdoors, other people
— day 3 of holiday: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING 💀
if I ever run an Airbnb (I won't), I'll fill the bookshelf with Bataille, Freud, and de Sade
when analytic philosophers cite continental philosophers
I’ve walked past this fancy bakery numerous times and finally walked in, I took home some macarons but was tempted by this incredible feat of buttery architecture 🧊🥐
(I could only find the censored screenshot, but I won't be shy about who it was. it was Alan Carson, a prominent neuropsychiatrist)
yeah, it was risky for me to give my PhD thesis the title "do psychiatric diagnoses explain?". this guy obviously assumed that I argued "no", when I actually argued "yes".
my philosophical career seems to be marked by medical doctors not reading my papers but getting angry about them nonetheless

what a thoughtful critique of my latest paper 🙃
(I'm beginning to suspect it's personal—he said the same thing about at least two of my previous papers)
for what it's worth, your photos of Swansea are so cool. I've never been to Swansea, but your photos give such a vivid impression of the life and atmosphere there
"don't"
— Arthur Schopenhauer
I know, right? especially given that the whole point of my paper is that the methods used to acquire this "evidence" are unsound 🫠

www.tandfonline.comapparently I don't seem to be aware of efforts to describe standards of evidence and methods, even though I spend 10000 words detailing and critiquing these standards and methods in the paper 🙃
apparently a prominent evolutionary psychiatrist is getting upset on Twitter about this paper

www.tandfonline.comyes! I have also read other authors who draw links between Husserl & James, but they tend to amplify James while casting Husserl in a lesser light (I'm a Husserlian, so I think their projects were different—to me, Husserl's contribution was to focus on phenomenology proper, rather than psychology)
the twins are playing outside with Twin 1 sitting in a basket and Twin 2 pretending to stir ingredients into it
Twin 2: "I'm boiling my sister"
yes I have 😂😂
apparently the only reason an academic philosophy journal would require authors to substantiate their claims with evidence and argumentation is gender ideology
did anyone else read Gettier and think "my dude, you only needed two examples and these were the best you could come up with?"
it's wonderful isn't it! apparently Dawkins responded with "but I meant it as a metaphor!". however I think that's utterly unconvincing, given how he slips from metaphorical use to literal use ("we are born selfish")
Descartes suggested that the seat of the soul is the pineal gland. Bataille showed that it is actually the toilet.
legitimate clown show stuff—the NYPD Deputy Commissioner thinks that a scholarly book on the history of terrorism from Oxford University Press is a terrorist manual
Midgley is very very cool. I set her "gene-juggling" as a core reading in my philosophy of biology module and it was so much fun! students loved seeing such a ferocious takedown of Dawkins
I'm remembering that time I had to clarify to someone that Alain Badiou is not the guy who does The School of Life
