Reflections on the statistics of my followers: One in four of you have visited only one, or no other countries in your life. In my experience, it’s always good to do all you can to see how others live — lest you think your way of life is the only way of life. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: 43% of you know only one Language. I am among you, but only if you don’t count the computer languages I know. And congrats to the 7% who know four or more languages. That’s badass in every way. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: Domestically & especially Internationally, more Men use Twitter than Women. Maybe Twitter breeds over-talkers, best suiting male modes of interaction. In any case, my followers are 78% Male 20% Female. With 1% Non-binary. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: 67% of my followers self-identify as having “Light” skin, and 1% with “Dark” skin, which simply tells me I am badly under-represented in Africa. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: Sixty percent of you are fluent in the Metric System. Wow. Either Americans are successfully inching in that direction, or most of my following is International. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: Consistent with all users of Twitter, there’s a nearly equal split between City living and the Suburbs, with one in seven of you living in Rural zones - where night skies are filled with stars. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: As expected, 90% of my followers live in the northern hemisphere — ‘cause that’s where most of the land is. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: Most of you are half my age or less. More significantly, only 3.5% of my followers are my age or older. That’s half of who in that age group uses Twitter. I wish I knew what any of that means. — PolitiTweet.org

@GinaGenebone697 Excellent question. I need to cross-correlate a lot of these answers, and especially compare with base averages from Twitter itself, before we can draw any reliable conclusions about my followers. — PolitiTweet.org

The two-thousand-tweet response to my "A Coronavirus walks into a bar..." request was entertaining. I tasked Brian Malow (whose actual handle is @ScienceComedian) to collate the best – and the worst – in a Twitter-thread. Here they are. Thanks, Brian. https://t.co/gK6aDEjZ4N — PolitiTweet.org

@Hassett_Brian Worried that it might have been a CCD artifact. But it’s there in this SDSS photo of NGC588. I don’t know what catalog it might otherwise appear in. https://t.co/OFHN15QQs7 — PolitiTweet.org
