Summer Dispatch: Brain on Hiatus

The heat has officially melted my ability to form coherent thoughts. My one surviving air conditioner—bless its overworked heart—lives in the bedroom, valiantly trying to do the job of two since its partner perished in the dining room. Posting may be sporadic until things cool down. Until then, I’ll be sweating creatively… or just sweating. This summer’s shaping up to be a scorcher—at least inside my house it is. Stay cool. 😎

Marxism was not admitted into the official centers of scientific psychology, and the name of Karl Marx remained almost unmentioned in the works of psychologists for more than 50 years after the publication of his basic work.
