@cusick @dramypsyd I guess we learned.. ... not to do it again?

@jstroik @cusick @dramypsyd Ah! Yet another flagship study leading to a conclusion about the importance of ethical oversight - or lack thereof - in research design and implementation. You can find it in the section called… (checks notes) unexpected outcomes? 🤷🏻‍♀️

@cusick @jstroik @dramypsyd Every journal they submitted their findings to objected on ethical grounds. No, not due to the shady methodology or lack of IRB approval. The results were a Lovecraftian cosmic horror that drove readers to absolute despair.

🤣

That's how Twitter makes people feel

Now I wish I could quote tweet. But not to dunk, instead because I love this comment and want to add context to my follower in case they open mastodon

@cusick @jstroik @dramypsyd yes, we learned that the one main question about life, universe and everything is...

Question "how would you spend $44bn?" with possible answers "1x Twitter" or "2.2bn IKEA blahaj plushies".

@ceha @cusick @jstroik an Olympic swimming pool emptied out, then filled with those shark plushies

@dramypsyd Now you got me tempted to do a little calculation...

@dramypsyd Just did some calc, let me illustrate the result like this:
If we put a twitter-price charge of blahaj plushies side by side, they'd cover an area of about 440 square kilometres.
So not that much the dimension of a pool, but think of an epic plushy landslide suitable to bury most of silicon valley. Sounds favourable to me.

@ceha I would love to be in the middle of that mountain, it sounds like sensory paradise!

@dramypsyd Anyway I have to admit a tiny midnight calc flaw: the 2.2bn blahaj could actually cover an area of _only_ 220 square km... just in case you plan some epic purchase now...

@cusick @jstroik @dramypsyd I think we already knew what the great Bard sang:
It’s hard to love
There’s so much to hate
