Tell any of the scientists you know who have remained on the site everyone still calls Twitter, even though it's nothing like Twitter.
Bluesky is the new science Twitter, new study by @whysharksmatter.bsky.social and Julia Wester concludes!
"Results show that for every reported professional benefit that scientists once gained from Twitter, scientists can now gain that benefit more effectively on Bluesky than on Twitter."

EXACTLY!! These are the same DFL consultants who stopped very successful "They're Weird" from happening, the same people who remodeled Nicollet Mall into a sterile cement tunnel, who build boring boxes with balconies. Just say NOPE! Its Trite.
Not just no but hell no. This is from the same top-down consultant class that gave us EaTo (East Town; don’t even ask).
We are NOT gonna try to make “Minneapolis Strong” happen.
Give people money instead, you useless toad. Strong Minneapolis has been doing all the things you say here for months, with no help from you. You did jack shit except send your cops to help ICE.

Big numbers. Big impact. The numbers speak for themselves when it comes to the effects of Operation Metro Surge. What can you do? Support businesses. Donate. Volunteer for a grocery run. As Assistant Chief Gaiters said today, we're Minneapolis Strong.
