From Ukraine🇺🇦 to Gaza🇵🇸, Syria🇸🇾, Lebanon🇱🇧, and now India🇮🇳 & Pakistan🇵🇰, creators use SM platforms to make their conflicts more visible. They're curators, eyewitnesses, and living archives of atrocity. @moaerikssonkrut.bsky.social & I call them *War Influencers*; OA in @platformsnsociety.bsky.social 🧵

Opinion: The ‘playful trauma’ bringing war to your social feeds Young people are using social media in new ways to tell the world what it means to live in the midst of conflict, and reshaping perceptions of war in real time

“For creators in Gaza, posting to social media is a vital act of resilience in a media landscape where their voices are often marginalized, and portrayals, particularly from Israeli outlets, tend toward dehumanization.” Moa & I on our playful trauma concept ❤️‍🩹 www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

Sen är själva forskningsläget ett annat. Jag studerade Twitter i många år, men med förändrade villkor för access för forskare blev det svårare.

Nej, det verkar ha hållit i sig som essentiell plattform för många trots protester i början. Många emigrerade, bland annat hit, men vi har inte haft samma kommunikationsmöjligheter här.

Jag använde Twitter dagligen sen 2014 fram till Elon tog över det, som protest. Men nu saknar jag mitt community.

How long until I rejoin Twitter? (I’ll be deadnaming it continuously.)

The post-pandemic university is a platform university, says @drmarkcarrigan.bsky.social and a potential crisis is the drive towards increased automation of knowledge #arc23

Can we actually build AI that make us obsolete as human beings? Depends on what we mean by an imagined humanity itself. Starting off w/ our first panel of #arc2023 at Humlab, Umeå uni.

How many hours each semester do I waste by not being able to save my ScholarOne passwords and having original logins for each journal or conference..!
