🥥 I simply cannot fathom that in only 3 months I have posted nearly 22,000 toots on my instance of #Fediverse.
#IRL I am a mild-mannered former editor for a major international wire service.
Surely that number is a typo by the person who's keeping track of my #Mastodon activity.
PS: My super power is #shyness. 🥥

Great piece from Emma Jacobs in the FT Weekend Magazine on #shyness and being an #introvert, including this line: “Introverts are people happy with their own company. Shy people want company and are unhappy about accessing it.”

Been thinking so much lately about the kind of person I *could have been* in my teens and twenties, if I'd only had the kind of self-confidence and self-awareness I have now.
I know probably everyone goes through some version of this, but as someone who used to be mega shy and introverted and not socialise much, it's especially frustrating to look back at the wide-open missed goals

Actor Hayley Atwell comments: “I was really shy as a kid, but my mum always used to take me to the theatre and I loved it."
Nicole Kidman thinks “Most actors are highly sensitive people.”
Psychotherapist Mihaela Ivan Holtz notes “Sometimes, anxiety can be turned into creative energy but other times, it can become paralyzing.”

To celebrate the fact my mentee, Tara Karasewich, passed her PhD defense this week (🎉 🎉 🎉 ), I thought I'd highlight a paper of hers that appeared in Developmental Review:
Trait social anxiety as a conditional adaptation: A developmental and evolutionary framework

Is anyone here an expert on measurement of child #shyness? I have a question pertaining to the CSQ. Boost appreciated.
Many people may think of themselves as shy or at least call themselves shy as a convenient label – or they may be characterized that way by other people.
But actually they may be highly sensitive or introverted and therefore feel more emotionally safe and comfortable in less social situations.
