Silence, blue check.
Wait a minute … "Forbes 30 under 30 " ?? hmmm
Can’t be long before she’s arrested for fraud.
oh shit i didnt know that, I love her content just thought she only worked at NASA in the dmv area. Used to run into her videos on insta - she REALLY loves space.
When those two astronauts were stuck in space(also fuck boeing), she provided some insides about their procedures and plans of return.
Tbf the Forbes 30 Under 30 is a great predictor of future jail time.
How dare you. Media Luminary Griffin McElroy is a saint!
Yeah the rest is fine, but bragging about being featured in a magazine is kinda cringe.
I mean, I feel you, but it is a pretty big deal to the general public. It’s okay to be proud of being recognized.
Has somebody mapped that one out?
There are a bunch of blog posts on it if you search “30 under 30 jail”. I would link to one, but I didn’t like the first few I saw.

No… Let 'em burn.
I want Brad so emotionally scarred that every time he goes to tweet some bullshit he has a depression inducing anxiety attack so overwhelming that he has to find the nearest corner to go cry in until exhaustion.
blue check marks
Ew
Elon actually hands these out to people who don’t want them because they were unpopular and an easy means of telling chuds apart from… uh, chads? There’s a good chance hers is a forced advertisement and not something she’s actually paying for.
Still means she’s on Twitter.
So are an insanely large amount of people.
I don’t think people on here realise that we are in an echo chamber ourselves and often times not very forgiving of people with differing opinions, where I would assume we should want to bring people to our point of view by being accepting and trying to educate on our beliefs.
So in this echo chamber of what 50K MAUs it can sometimes be hard to keep sight of the fact we are the smallest of minorities in this space and what we see is absolutely not a representation of what most people in the world care about.
I’ve never used Twitter but I’m not going to shit on other people for using it.
Were you on Reddit when they had loads of jailbait subs? Would you like to labelled as part of that same group just because you shared the same space?
Does it not seem reasonable that some people might use Twitter as a means to keep in the loop and not isolate from the crazies, Nazis, bigots or whatever. You can’t converse with the other side if you ain’t where they are at and if we all stay in our own echo chambers what are we really achieving other than a self-righteous circle jerk?
To be abundantly clear I am including myself in this too and not just calling you out. But this place is exhausting at times, I am the most cynical person I know and this place really gives me a run for my money at times. Even in the less serious stuff, like you can’t oppose Linux here you’ll be downvoted to shit for even having a different opinion. You have to use FOSS everything, and you should even be eating open source food 😂
tl;dr, but I still think displaying mild disgust at anyone who uses twitter today is the correct reaction
Twitter is just shit though. Why are you even trying to defend it? Same as Facebook, I can’t see shit there without an account.
I’m not trying to defend, I was reasoning why people would still use it and trying to start a discussion.
Why did you focus on that aspect of my quite long comment and not try to engage with any of the points I made?
sorry i came back but wtf
?
i had a frikkin point and now i’ve been sidetracked and seriously? twitter???
Not just Linux, but you obviously have to use the correct distro of it, which obviously is…
correct
Are you shitting me right now, why would you click that!? Allow me to explain in this 50 part manifesto why I am so very smart and everyone else is beneath me…
That said, X is legit an Alt-Right Nazi bar. Even as we here are an Alt-Left one. I suppose it simply comes with the territory.:-|
Aww I wanted to hear your Linux opinions
It was going to be Arch.
btw
Actually, there are only a few hundred people on Twitter. The rest are bots.
If Spez had given a Nazi salute and taken over the US government, I would have left.
That’s your prerogative, but I wonder if you see the danger of all people online splitting into their own groups?
The way I see it is you have a place just filled with say Nazis then they’re never going to learn or understand different perspectives and they’re going to become more radical.
So we have lemmy.ml. they don’t seem to learn
But how do you know that some people haven’t changed their views from coming up against counter arguments?
Nazis don’t understand different perspectives. It’s essentially the definition.
That said, I see value in posting for the peanut gallery (when I encounter Nazis here, I don’t go on Twitter).
But debating Nazis? Hoping to change their minds?
Nah, prefer to serve them knuckle sandwiches and go about my day.
This reads like you making the assumption that people are born Nazis and it’s not a learned behaviour.
Some people can hold their beliefs because of the environment they grew up in and many can actually change if people actually cared about educating people and not just feeling superior.
I want to stress this is only my opinion and I respect that you have yours too.
And you’re on Lemmy. Most people have their echo chamber of choice.
That’s a really bad argument given one of those chambers is literally run by, and full of, nazis.
Plenty of fascists on Lemmy. They’re just not well known billionaires.
Luckily it’s federated.
No, both sides are not the same. There is a way higher percentage on Twitter and it’s centrally controlled by one.
Both sides? Good grief. Not everything has to be a you vs them. And of course there is a higher number on Twitter. They have, what, 300 million active users? And Lemmy is probably .001% of that.
I mean this one is run mostly by people who agree with what is being said in the echo chamber too.
Though the architecture of the Fediverse does make it impossible for it to become as bad as the commercial ones.
That’s like saying “everyone has a hobby” when you witness someone picking fights in public. Some hobbies and spaces are objectively worse than others.
But all females have been deleted from nasa
I thought we were all female now, by law? :-P
Whoa, whoa. How dare this uppity woman talk like that to Dr. Bradley D. D. Wentworth, PhD., an internationally renowned expert on footballogy and beeristics? His accolades include frequent beating of his wife, a penchant for racial slurs, and living in a trailer down by the river.
Beeristics sounds like an awesome field, too bad Brad is in it.
I was thinking some kind of beer calisthenics but then realised that the Brad bod wouldn’t support that
What does D.D. stand for? Designated dumbass?
Edit: Doctor dickhead?
Double dumbfuck
Designated Douchebag
Dumbass Dingeberry
Disappointing Dipshit
Divorced dad
That my game bro!!! I love that shit.
If y’all don’t know what it is, look up the dude who makes divorced dads on YouTube.
I love that guy.
You talking about Graeme Barrett? If so, I’m glad that dude is finally getting some recognition. He’s hilarious and was way underrated on the Tube for a long time.
Yeah that’s him. Love that dude.
Doctor of Divinity - in most places a bogus degree given to ministers or bought online.
Dumbass Dipshit
Her yt channel is amazing!
Ah just some blue check degenerates having a slap fight in the Nazi bar. Yawn.
Get the fuck off of xitter… it harms your credibility.
Are any of the things she listed actually “doing science” though? Writing policy is more politics.
Well he did ask ‘what have you done that’s so great’
exactly, she wasn’t saying she was a researcher, she was stating she wasn’t an arm chair quarterback… Going with the sports analogy she’s far closer to a manager or a coach… not a dude on the couch with just the perspective of what’s shown on TV.
Alexandra Doten is a science communicator and astronomy content creator who rose to fame on TikTok during the COVID-19 pandemic. Doten, a Vanderbilt graduate, interned at NASA for two summers and worked as a communications specialist after graduation. She later transitioned to the U.S. Space Force. Doten is known for her storytelling, which she says has inspired people to pursue careers in astronomy and space, and to invest in astrophotography equipment.
Not to give credit to Twitter verified assholes, but comms specialist is not a specific astronomy or aerospace field.
A former space communications specialist with NASA and later, the U.S. Space Force, today, I am an independent consultant to space organizations around the world. I write and develop brand strategies, educational presentations, speeches, and social media content.
And I harbor some pretty strong opinions about NASA’s public and internal administration for the past 30 years.
Two preventable shuttle disasters and a hacksaw outsourced attempt to return to the moon are not what I would consider quality projects. Modern NASA is the epitome of wasted talent.
I worked for NASA and the Space Force …
That “worked for” is doing a lot of heavy lifting, she’s a tiktok influencer lol
