Very happy to get stuck into this just-published overview by @pavlosvas1.bsky.social. Looks to be very handy especially as a relative newcomer (interloper?) to political psychology!

Best way to kick off the weekend: arepa con queso, frijoles colombianos

A plate with a toasted arepa cake, fried egg with runny yolk, brown beans in a thick sauce, and a half avocado with a slice of lemon. Green coriander sprinkled on top

Our group of @sotonpolitics.bsky.social faculty, PhD students, and visitors enjoyed the reopening reception at the @unisouthampton.bsky.social Winchester Gallery! Got us thinking of how to use data and research creatively. And my organising emails apparently give ‘chaperoning school trip’ vibes 🤷🏽‍♂️

You'd join a friendly, strong (esp. on political behaviour and democratic innovations) and upward-tracking department with multiple ESRC and ERC projects. And, brilliant postdocs already here like @fransplains.bsky.social @cintranatalia.bsky.social @paul-kindermann.net @dbonansinga.bsky.social

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 28, 2026, 1:22 PM

3-year postdoc w/ @rikkidean.bsky.social's ERC team on democratic attitudes. It's a great time to join @sotonpolitics.bsky.social: we have multiple projects ongoing or starting in 2027 that will eventually bring at least 7(!) postdocs.

Us too!

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 8:18 PM

Thanks Katjana, and some of it came about from the thought provoking and kind chats we had on my visit (already two years ago…) so double thanks!

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 8:06 PM

Aw shucks thanks Paul!

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 8:04 PM

Thanks Konstantin, and I feel like I’ll be learning a great deal from yours too (as standard, of course!)

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 8:02 PM

Thanks Nick! Hope to see you around this term, too (and certainly via the public opinion crowd)

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 8:00 PM

Thanks Marta, and it makes me very glad to know there are likeminded folks like you who also care about dataviz in similar ways 👍🏽

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 7:58 PM

Thanks as always Maria, and great seeing you at EPOP, too!

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 7:57 PM

Thanks Jake, and I’ll definitely want to keep in touch on exactly this question.

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 7:56 PM

Many thanks Peter! We missed you at EPOP but I’m sure there will be future times to cross paths.

@williamlallen.bsky.socialSep 25, 2026, 7:55 PM

Thank you Nina, and also for the helpful comments even at a 09.00 EPOP slot!
