@faintingincoils I think the Twitter bird should take a huge š© on Elon Musk's "X"! #birdpoop #birdshit #XMarksTheSpot

When people think of #virology, they rarely think of a week at the beach. But for the last 38 years, #StJude #avianflu hunters have traveled to #DelawareBay to collect #birdpoop which, this year, will help provide context for the ongoing #pandemic. https://bit.ly/43DRV8K #StJudeResearch #FluResearch

At the end of May, #NewYorkTimes reporter Emily Anthes accompanied #StJude #virologists on their yearly trek to #DelawareBay in #NewJersey to document their collection of #birdpoop. #Virologist Dr. Robert Webster, now St. Jude emeritus faculty, started going to the area in 1985. āDelaware Bay has turned into an influenza gold mine,ā he says. āAnd we will continue to mine that gold mine until weāve found the answers.ā Follow their journey. http://bit.ly/3IVn1AA #FluResearch

From the #BirdPoop files:
Why #advertisers arenāt coming back to Twitter
Elon #musktotusk is still the problem.
Thereās no getting around it. Twitterās survival in the coming months depends on how its new owner, Elon Musk, manages his relationship with a key group of people: advertisers.
.. .
Companies also worry about affiliating with Musk himself as he continues to post offensive tweets, including a recent one mocking a disabled Twitter employee

LOL! Images and links are broken on the bird site right now.

@ct_bergstrom I refuse to go to the #BirdPoop site to find out how many people donāt understand what the phrase ālow confidenceā means.
I hate the fact that EM has destroyed the bird. I hate that I have to have 4 different social media sources now to get my news and follow the people I like to follow on Mastedon, Post, Counter Social & Spoutible. I hope by this time next year we have a site that the majority of the world is using- not the bird. #disheartened #birdpoop #socialmedia #ElonMuskTheNewTwitler #destruction #newsstories

So up until last night I still had my two #BirdPoop accounts. I would go on there every couple of days just to see how much everything had gone to complete š¦š©. But last night I went ahead and deactivated both accounts and removed the app, Iāve had enough reading about Space Karen.
This place has been 95% positive vibes and Iāve felt comfortable sharing my stupid programming joke memes to try to spread some more positivity. Thanks for having me #mastodon.
@benjaminallocco
I never respond to requests for hearts , likes and shares on #birdpoop. It feeds the algorithm. I'll do it here when people ask seriously because mastadon as no evil algorithm to increase "engagement"
the arguments that #mastodon HAVE TO BE another large political space on the internet, like #twitter or #reddit, are mostly coming from people who are recently migrating from #birdpoop social media
I will tell you the truth: we don't have to be,
#mastodon #twitter #reddit #birdpoop
Elon looking for a new Elon. #birdpoop #muskfail

Galeano talks about #AndreGunderFrank analyzing "#MetropolisSatellite" relations. For Toroku Kazuyuki Kawahara (and for Minamata, Michiko Ishimure) talks about #CenterPeriphery relations: how the urban centers profit at the expense of the rural peripheries. The history of #Bolivia's #Potosi features mercury poisoning too with the nearby #Huancavelica mines. Galeano's book has me thinking of #NaomiKlein on #Nauru in #ThisChangesEverything, #Peru's economy relied on centuries of #BirdPoop too.
