In this video you can see, more or less, that UFO-sightings are nothing more than a socio-cultural phenomenon and has nothing to do with aliens visiting our planet.
I never get invited for birthday parties and weddings.

"Four years after the #EATLancet landmark report, it is clear that the #food system transition relies on the local implementation of #global targets... To this end, food systems #research should embrace the local #nature of the biophysical (#health, #environment) and #social dimensions (#sociocultural, #economy) and the #accountability of #foodsystem actors from the micro to the macro level"

#Introduction second take. Hello from the #TwitterMigration!

I'm a #SocialScience #researcher and #writer. My work typically uses #ethnographic research methods as a lens to explore #sociocultural
influences on human behaviors such as trust, decision-making, and emotional attachment with #AI
in its many forms.

Also an external research fellow in the #Ethics + Emerging #Sciences Group (#CalPoly).

Is it necessary? No. Is it kind? Non Applicable. Is it relevant? Yes. Is it something I want to say? Yes. Is it important? You’ll know in 20 years when you read a book about the mid 19th-20th century. A self portrait does not include a mask. Your face is what makes the portrait unique. Hiding under a hat, eye glasses, and a mask is “a portrait of a person in hiding.” not a self portrait. // #sociocultural #psychology #operantconditioning #thisisnotcoolman #notintentionallyoffensive ..
