In 2025, #PLOSBiology continues to advocate for policy based on scientific evidence.
I feel strongly about the need for evidence-based policy and a dogged defence of science. I said it in 2020, and will reiterate it til the end of time.
The world may change - our principles should not.

Current events have shown how important it is to massively shift away from billionaire social media platforms. For our mental health, for democracy itself!
There is much to do to convince people that decentralised social media is not only good enough; its lack of feed algorithms makes it *better*. After all, feed algorithms serve platform owners, not platform users.
Help us campaign for this historic shift. We offer 3-9 week fellowships to

1. Instructions
2. Why you might be interested
With, yet again, a post with no explanation of the topic (Kodi builds).

Indicate in the post what the topic is about.
Explain up front what the benefits are.
Then provide instructions.

7 Ways to Get Better at Small Talk—And Why You Should
"Despite the benefits, many of us hate small talk. We often assume that the people around us aren’t interested in talking or won’t like us—but research indicates that we tend to underestimate how much our conversation partners enjoy our company, a phenomenon called “the liking gap.”
"'We all have this negative voice in our heads that tells us we’re not very good at this social stuff,” Sandstrom says. “But the data suggest that people actually like you more than you think they do.'"
