Gives Shits, Not Fucks
Their research is dope. But they wont jam it down your throat.
They call out toxicity, even among in group elites. Apparent shitposts are actually evidence-based eviscerations. Donât start none wonât get none.

They donât have a Twitter account. They just do some research, live their lives. Probably have a fulfilling social and family life. Appear well-rested and hydrated. Sleeps well.
Utterly diabolical.

Great research. Prolific. Kind to others. No drama. Will joke some, but not too much. Self promotes when itâs appropriate. Has friends. Excels in some non-academic domain too. You want to hate them, but dammit theyâre legit good folks too.

In his own category of course is @lastpositivist, who has perfected the Golden Ratio of shitpost:sincere, all wrapped in an internally consistent alternative world. Youâll laugh, youâll cry, youâll think.

They are the hub of their network. Their thoughts are so far in the lead that they do not need to cite or acknowledge differing views or critiques. Tweets infrequently, but about their projects. Salesman vibes.

Oh you'll know their opinions. On everything. Salty language. More hits than misses, but plenty of misses. Like the memester, you're pretty sure they have a Research Thing, but damned if you know what it is.
Followers: tons or none, h- ?

Must have a google alert or something, because they'll pop up in any discussion or joke about what they study to DEFEND. THAT. TURF.

Their unironically enthusiastic 32-post thread on an obscure topic like the chemical attributes of gecko wrist skin makes your week. Theyâre so into their topic, how can you not be?
followers? H-? Who cares, itâs too pure for that mess!

Pops into an area for the first time, claims it, make a Big Bold Claim about How it Needs to be Done, dubs ânew theoryâ of it, accompanying op-ed, conference, book deal, grant, etc
but like over and over again

Pretty quiet. Mostly lurks.
occasionally pops into a thread or conversation and just simply asks The Right Question (tm). This cuts to the heart of it all, defuses tension, and generally restores balance with all feeling smarter for it.
