Early reading. We have captured 4 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.

A typical post picks up 1.6K interactions against 299K followers, an engagement rate of 0.549%. Posts are seen about 97K times each, and 1.69% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 32.5% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 30% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 04:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 4 posts sampled, 50% carry an image or video and 50% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 27K interactions, about 16x its own typical post. Only 4 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 205,261 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,894 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 04:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 04:00 UTC.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

  • 50% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 0% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 173 characters, which falls in the 80 - 180 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 80 to 180 characters run 3% below the same accounts' other posts.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    This is Rachel Ford, the Knoxville Symphony CEO who denied me the Principal Clarinet job after I won the blind audition unanimously. Rachel, why did you invite me to the audition after reviewing my resume if you had no intention of hiring me? Why have me waste my time? https://t.co/vAiQKLpoEe

    Exciting news: @buttonslives and I found out we’re having a baby GIRL! All tests indicate she’s perfectly healthy! She's due on Jan. 24, 2027. Prior to 2020, I was convinced I never wanted a family or kids. But for the past six years, I’ve wanted nothing more. Now I can’t even walk past the little girls’ clothes at the store without getting a lump in my throat. Christina and I can’t wait to welcome her into this world and into our lives. šŸ‘Øā€šŸ‘©ā€šŸ‘§

    Seeing lots of surprised reactions to the absurd Nature editorial on Jason Arday. Frankly, I'm surprised people are surprised. Nature has been totally captured by wokeness for a while now. I've been trying to call attention to this for nearly a decade. There are no serious scholars left there in influential positions capable of rescuing it. The people in charge of Nature today are brazenly hostile to the foundational principles that made Nature a highly respected and trustworthy institution in the first place. Today, activists have hijacked it and are using the prestige associated with the Nature brand to push an ideological agenda. They don't care that they're quickly burning through the immense trust that was slowly and painstakingly built by generations of competent scholars and stewardship. They're willing to burn through it all in a decade for power. It's an absolute tragedy. Nature has gone all-in on decoloniality, which holds that academic rigor and scientific objectivity are forms of colonial oppression rooted in white supremacy. It seeks to elevate Indigenous "ways of knowing," which amount to tribal myths and forms of religious mysticism, as an equally valid system of producing knowledge. And they don't want this absurd notion to remain theoretical; they want to implement these principles in areas that deal with life and death—medicine and nursing. I know what I'm saying sounds absurd. People can't possibly believe that. Like, I must be exaggerating, right? I promise you that I'm not. If anything, I'm dramatically understating the problem. We are in the midst of a total academic crisis, and we need to stop acting surprised and start taking action to delegitimize these journals and root these fields out of our public and publicly-funded institutions. If we don't, it's only going to get worse.

    Bluesky users are trying (and failing) to debunk our HHS study, which was preregistered and uses real data, clearly articulated questions, and sound statistical analyses. Yet they have no problem with a Cambridge PhD thesis based in autoethnography and "Critical Poetic Inquiry" with a sample size of 3. šŸ™ƒ

    A person willingly enters a tiger enclosure and approaches the tiger. The tiger begins mauling the person. You have a gun and the ability to take a clean shot at the tiger to save the person's life. Q1: What do you do? Q2: Do you consider yourself religious? (Yes/No)

    The lead author of a popular journal article promoting sex pseudoscience just revealed on Bluesky that one of my followers mailed her printed-out copies of several of my essays on the sex binary. Which one of you did this? It's hilarious and I 100% approve! https://t.co/pD5Av9Kx31

    The woman who murdered the victim was "known" to police as having mental health issues. The issue then, once again, is the failure of mental health treatment and "services." We're doing it wrong. And now two women are dead, one quite undeservedly. https://t.co/QVHlmiq9Ii

    Please consider signing this petition urging the WNBA to implement female-only eligibility criteria! This petition was started by three-time Olympic gold medalist @Hogshead3Au, and has been endorsed by sports legends Charles Barkley, Martina Navratilova, and many others. From the petition: "The athletes in the WNBA deserve to know that when they step onto the court, they will be competing on a level playing field—without biological males." If this issue is important to you, please consider signing and sharing. šŸ”—https://t.co/iOmMnkCHX3

    Ask Grok: "Create a Magic: The Gathering creature card of me based on my post history." I love the spider wasps! And the nuance in the abilities is also impressive. In Magic, Ward is an ability that taxes your opponent whenever they try to target the card. Seems like this related to being hard to "cancel." The automatic Enchantment counter unless the opponent pays is pretty sweet. And the ability to exile Illusions (debunk nonsense) is on point!
