Tomorrow is the https://scholar.social Mastoversary! We have been online for an entire year!

I just paid the VPS ($107.98) for the next year, and I'm in a good place financially to do so

If you were inclined to give money to support Scholar Social, donate it to another Masto instance or another worthy cause of your choosing!

I liked this one https://twitter.com/TubaZef/status/981225137151397888

wanted: work

I am a copywriter, although I could do a lot of different kinds of writing. I bet I could do technical writing, if it came up. I know about marketing but honestly I don't like doing it very much.

I'm also an editor! And a regular writer! And a lot of other things!

If you know someone who needs me, or what I can do, please suggest me. I'm good at what I do and unemployed!

Hi everyone,
I’m a PhD student in Cognitive Psychology at UBC. I work on the relationships between attention and subjective experience during electronic gambling activities. I will post mostly about cognitive science, addiction, policy and psychophysiology.

I deactivated Facebook about 6 months ago as questions about their data use and privacy mounted. So far, very happy to be tooting (heheh). Mastodon is like a small government social network!

#introductions I am a bachelor's in marine engineering. Planning to switch to applied physics
