- absurd amount of reminders
- quantity over quality mindset

Nice to see "Democratic discontent in old and new democracies" (Dahlberg, Linde & Holmberg) is among the 20 most cited articles on both "Democracy" and "Government" in the last 10 years. At least according to the new IPSA Companion to Political Science (open access) link.springer.com/referencewor...

I’ve officially resigned as Associate Editor for Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience. It used to be a reputable journal, but became a case study in how forced automation destroys academic integrity. 👇
