Join us in being social misfits and laugh with us as we fumble through life trying to be good humans.
We produce How to be a Good Human, Abnormal Humans, and Story Corner - all found here under Metacog Misfits!
For H2BGH, We focus on one social science research article and discuss how this article applies to being a good human.
For AH, we focus on the pasts of notorious abusers and speculate what made them tick.
Through our discussions, we include social and political commentary, as well as periodic comic relief.
