Hey all! I'm an Australian PhD student working in supramolecular chemistry (mainly photoswitch related, with lots of supporting NMR studies). Alongside the chemistry I play music, dance, and have interests in politics/international relations/global security (any open-source analysts hanging around here?).
I've tried mastodon on and off a few times before this account, but never really managed to find a critical mass of enough others with shared interests to keep me here. With all the interest M's been picking up recently, it seemed like it might be worth trying again!
@spinflip I hear you, I also sometime feel that it may not be the best thing... but as you say, is a starting point to gather people, we'll see what comes after =)
@spinflip @arteteco We aren't exactly subject focused. We want a certain caliber of people that are rational people looking to learn and teach about the world. Critical thinkers. But we dont enforce any one subject in people's posts. You can post about whatever. But when you have high caliber people then the quality of the posts naturally reflect that.
