@shoq @Teri_Kanefield For my own part, I don't mind when *actual professors* get to lecturing

If I'm not in the mood to read it: I don't have to!
If I am in the mood: people pay good money to get those lectures! And here I am, gettin' 'em for free!

(In all seriousness: Thank you Teri! What you're doing is a legit public service!)

Is there an instance for social sciences / mental health workers? Still thinking about putting a professional presence somewhere.

(And I don't mean that instance where you have to prove you've published three papers in the last year or whatever. πŸ™„ Ugh. I'm a hard-bitten clinician on the front lines, a solo entrepreneur, and a single parent. Not an institutionally supported researcher.)

Dinner break and then back at my submission. Might be down to the wire with this one. Fellow procrastinators in sociology are you ? πŸ˜…

I don't understand how I am up to nearly the same number of followers after like 9 months of activity that it took me 14 years to build on Twitter.

All I do is talk about random stuff and follow people back??

I resisted and resisted even the idea of editable posts for years, I even made it a point of acceptance to leave mistakes up, but now that I have edits I am really happy about it. πŸ˜‚

@owen @futurebird I was chatting the other day w/ someone about "groups" on mastodon/fediverse - I think this would be an excellent use case: an 'experts' forum where most of the regulars are knowledgeable about, say, "what's this bug?", and randos can pop in & ask questions. And, there's no incentive to maximize 'engagement' - just people who know about bugs, answering questions from people who want to know about this bug they just saw.

@mattblaze Yeah, when I was first getting oriented , I was reading up on how DMs work, and just had moment after moment of, "Huh. That's not how I would have expected that to work."

And every time I get a DM, I make sure to write back, "So... You know that DMs here aren't like how they were on Twitter, right?"

Usually they do! Some, however, don't...

@timkmak @TexasObserver @damemagazine@newsie.social @swin24@newsie.social And as for journos that I r'd rec a follow:
mstdn.social/@GottaLaff@mastod has been killing the Proud Boy Trial beat, formerly @ DKos, lately at emptywheel
mstdn.social/@chancerydaily@ma is, I gather, more of a 'citizen journalist', than trad, but if you want to know what's going on in the Delaware Court of Chancery (and you should!), that's your follow
and of course, @mmasnick has his finger on the pulse of all things 'tech'

@timkmak Present company excluded -
@TexasObserver & @damemagazine@newsie.social are news outfits that are worth a follow!
As for individual journos - I do wish @joshtpm & @swin24@newsie.social would maintain more of a presence here...

@shoq I know that some folk don't like it when other folk try to import things that used to be things at , but dammit, it was true when it trended over there, it's true here, it's true everywhere, all the time

So, I have this problem that wonder if anyone else has: I haven't gotten new glasses for 3 yrs because [waves hands @ everything] so I keep misreading certain words - for example, whenever is in the news, I always misread it as . Just now I saw headline that I misread as, "Rockets fired from LeBron spark outcry" and I was super confused for a sec

Like, I thought he was a Laker still!

@andisheh @ShmosKnows A post, either or , can't remember which, (can't search here, won't search there) once posited that a big problem w/ political journalism is that so many of its practitioners seem to fall into two camps: those who think that The West Wing showed how "politics really works", vs those who say, "Au Contraire! House of Cards is what you should watch to get the straight dope!"

When, in reality, Veep is where it's at.
