Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.

A Place of Joy.

I can’t recommend this book enough. It’s a collection of short stories, essays, and photographs speaking to the very point made below.

Kids are better at inclusion than adults are. I said what I said 🫢

If you read a book while in the library, don't reshelve it! Leave it on a table or counter or just flat on the shelf. This lets its in-library use get recorded, which helps the librarians know that it's an important book to keep.

Ants often act like inefficient goofballs. They got lost, accidentally drop their good and walk in circles trying to find it but eventually give up and go home, half of the ants in a nest just sit there 24/7 and do absolutely nothing.

New starter pack! I've been wanting to make this all weekend, but a sick kid and grant writing took priority. Plenty of space on here--let's see some pups. go.bsky.app/8JBjFxH

I’ve been really missing the #sped and #academia community on the dumpster fire bird app… so it’s been refreshing to find it on here again 🥹 #edusky

This. Thread. Has. EVERYTHING.
It’s 6:40am at LAX. In line at the convenience store, an older man was having trouble with his credit card and jokingly asked me “can I have your credit card?”

I laughed and said “I’m black. Give me YOUR credit card. Reparations.” The black lady working the register burst out laughing.

Him: 😮😳🤔😩🤣

I made a starter pack. Feels weird because I know I've forgotten folks, so please let me know if you want on (or off!). Looking forward to this space being more active!

Dr. Bhana-Lopez once again proving to be the goat. I love that so many people in this field are just genuinely top tier and kind humans. Other disciplines should take note 🤗
A. Check your instagram msgs.

B. Lots of programs are applying for OSEP D grants right now. We won't know who gets funded until February. After that we will most likely be recruiting for fall 2025 (again).

I’m an avid forest app user, but this semester I’ve been in a classroom that uses physical visual timers for everything. So of course I had to buy one for my own personal use and honestly it’s changing my life

Your mid-20s is weird because theres such a broad range of experiences happening. Like my partner and I just had a conversation about hospital indemnity insurance and made our November budget. But I have friends whose parents pay their rent and they go grocery shopping like once every 3 weeks???
