@Cyborgneticz But real talk, If you want people who go HAM over sports- look up Vancouver Stanley Cup Final Riots. They nearly leveled the city over hockey (only a bit hyperbolic).
So I'm officially graduating in May with an MS in Developmental Psych, after realizing that I don't really mesh well with clinical settings. So yay! also, now what?
@Cyborgneticz Don't you dare make fun of Philly's fans. That's a job for everyone north of them.
@rooster what do you mean feeling like you're pulling off that dress? You *are* pulling off that dress. It's a wonderful color and fit for you! Really brings out the more subtle warmth in your face and hair.

@brimwats re-reading it yeah I could have phrased it better-
Attempt two: When you are explaining or demonstrating the use of the service and resources above, what the greatest challenges you have when communicating about these topics to others? Is there anything in the outreach around these things that you find recurring it hard to overcome?

I'm actually really tired so I may have to rewrite one more time in the AM.

@brimwats hello and welcome! Love to see new faces. Hope you'll enjoy sharing information, stories, and jokes (where possible). A question to start off with is I notice your intro mentions data collection and analysis- but what do you think are the greatest challenges with communicating the results of this data to those may not understand how your field works and why the information is important?
QotD: If you were regulating a marketplace of ideas, what health and safety regulations would you impose and why? On what basis could or should enforcement exist?

The Lighthouse by Vellen

I have nightmares
not dreams
Dreams are for
the awake, the peaceful Mind
I do not, even waking
find that Strength.

Nightmares are my constant
companions, not friends.
But, I have found
revenge.

To live below dreams
To Show others
Lost in the dark
Paths to the light

I did not pass
Through hell,
and high water,
To falter now.
I will not drown.

I am the guide.
I am the hand that leads
To your freedom.
The Lighthouse.

@gaffen If it's okay I will DM you what I can find in a few hours.
