@openvibe.social just for your debugging. This post has no link when I view in OpenVibe…. But I see the link in the native bsky.app ? I normally discover these things are my fault!

Braved Storm Bert 2 paddle Windermere! Paddle fine, but arrival was hairy; ferry closure forced us to a a white-knuckle detour on icy roads. Drove windows down (escape route!) in case we slid in! Poor Freddie, our resident water-skeptic, on high alert. Just another relaxing day in the Lakes 😅❄️

British friends: anyone have a print copy of the Guardian for Thursday, Nov 21? It has a long excerpt of my book, Dr. Calhoun's Mousery, and I would love to hold it in my hands, if you could send it along.

Straddling the trinity of Threads, BlueSky / Mastodon, on iOS? There’s the OpenVibe App; iPAD or iPhone. ( @openvibe.social @openvibe @[email protected] ) gives you 1 seamless timeline.
Although I’d rather that muted offensive words were muted not highlighted?

Added! Am trying to add everyone that responds, but slightly more difficult than it seems because of course there is spam also, that naively I didn’t expect 🤦

@david_colquhoun somehow I remembered this post of yours!! Thought you might be interested in our piece in the veterinary-vegan space too? And no, neither of us are “anti-vegan” just anti “improbable science”!!

Vegan dog food has been hailed as the healthiest – our study shows the reality is more complicated

We reviewed data that purportedly showed a vegan diet was healthier and found there were more factors at play.

Researchers map how the brain regulates emotions

A new study is among the first of its kind to separate activity relating to emotion generation from emotion regulation in the human brain. The findings provide new insights that could help inform therapeutic treatments regarding mental health and drug addiction.
