- This makes me happy for three main reasons 1) Big fan of Indianas QB and 2) I am anti Miami after Ole Miss’ loss and 3) I am anti anyone, but especially Carson Beck, playing college football for like 6 years.
- Curt Cignetti has done the unthinkable, turning the biggest loser in college football history into a 16-0 national champion in just two seasons. With the win, he has proven to be the best coach in the sport, @brucefeldmancfb.bsky.social writes.
- Not even 24 hours later a big online casino company, High Roller Tech, just partnered with Crypto.com to expand into prediction markets. #gr8
- I have gone down a rabbit hole in prediction market apps like Kalshi and Polymarket and I am.. confused and concerned.
- My heart has been racing for 4 hours. #HOTTYTODDY

- Reposted by Kristi CarrasquilloMen's loneliness is a complex issue that also leads into a larger loneliness problem for everybody! Men also have little solidarity and are encouraged to repress emotions from a young age. Extremism takes advantage of this! It's obvious!
- Reposted by Kristi CarrasquilloI would like to take a moment to congratulate @drcolintmahoney.bsky.social on the award he received yesterday, "Most likely to crash into @joshuagrubbsphd.bsky.social's Cybertruck."

- the best peopleeeeee 🤠💕
- Officially finished my first semester of grad school! Wouldn’t have made it through if it wasn’t for these people ❣️
- IT WASN’T ME FOLKS! (though I bet at some point it will be)
- I hope all those who submitted PhD applications remember that an acceptance or a rejection does not define them or their level of competency! And as much as I love this field, my research, this career path, my mentors, and my school… there is SO much more to life than this!!!
- PETE FLEET !! 🛥️
- Reposted by Kristi CarrasquilloOle Miss should not let Lane Kiffin coach this team if he leaves for LSU. No way. I get that it's hard to walk away from a team in the CFP, but no one is forcing him to leave. The school should name an interim and ride with someone who wants to be with Ole Miss.
- ABCT 2025 was FUN!!
- NOLA was magical. Made me deeply miss living in the south.

- as sports betting increasingly evolves, so does risk and fraud. legalizing betting doesn’t eliminate the risk of corruption, it just changes the shape of it.

- Reposted by Kristi CarrasquilloOur experimental alcohol administration study on the tension reduction hypothesis has been published in Addiction! 🎉 See preprint thread below for a summary :) Https://doi.org/10.1111/add.70213
- I'm excited to share a new preprint: In a novel experimental paradigm, we found evidence that stress induces a computational bias during alcohol-related decision-making in favor of alcohol, but this bias was only sometimes strong enough to overcome competing considerations (e.g., taste preferences).
