Understanding p-values is not difficult, but it does take more time (say 2 hours initially, rehearsing it 4 times for 30 minutes) than people invest, which is the only barrier to getting people to understand them. This material should be all you need. lakens.github.io/statistical…
Protip: if you are responding to a rejection, and particularly if you are asking an editor for a reconsideration of a rejected manuscript, wait until you can do it politely. This could be a subtweet

We tend to think of a lung as a simple pump: one gas is pulled in, another is pushed out. That isn’t the case—with each of the roughly 20,000 breaths we take in a day, air travels through convoluted passages that can stretch for 1,500 miles. nyer.cm/v9O5dDR

We’re tearing down the paper ceiling.
Today I signed an executive order creating pathways for New Jerseyans without college degrees to qualify for state jobs.
Experience and skills matter. Everyone should have the ability to secure their place in the middle class.
