If anyone has half an hour to spare to complete this study for one of my students that would be very helpful. It is a study looking at the underlying cognitive factors associated with political ideology. essex.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

You might underestimate the amount of people called "Alessandro Mazza" out there. Usually, this leads to at least 4/5 tries before finding a username that somewhat resembles my particulars.

Bluesky represents the first instance where I got to register my name and surname without any compromise.

I often feel overwhelmed whenever I have several pending tasks. I'm trying a new strategy: choose one and finish it, no matter if bombs start falling.

I finished two tasks this morning, and feel pretty good. I'll make a list of completed tasks so that on Friday I'll read it and see my weekly deeds.

2. Scheduled posts
3. Edit posts
4. Sort followers by number of followers (I missed some interesting people following me)
5. Videos longer than 60 seconds
