Surreal to search a relatively common hashtag and find that *nobody* has used it anywhere in the federated timeline (e.g. #science, #physics, #scicomm, #openaccess). Feels like going back in time.
@Idoubtit huh. Just saw this and looked at your website. You've carved out a fascinating niche. Who is your audience? And if you don't mind my asking, how do you support yourself with this work?
@freelanceastro Who is my audience is a fascinating question. It's all over the spectrum. My goal is to put out info for the random Googler to find on topics. But this is my second job. I have a regular 8-4 gig that pays the bills.
@freelanceastro I felt the same way when I saw nobody on my instance had used the #sciart hashtag.
@freelanceastro I do very organic science outreach, via unconventional topics
