366 days ago, a brave woman kicked off #metoo on Twitter.

It’s not who you think it is.

To this day, her tweet has 5 RTs and 5 likes.

Here’s the story of how #MeToo spread 👇

The New Mexico woman was not the first one to ever post this status.

But she was the first to transfer #metoo from the relatively private confines of Facebook (which saw 12M posts over 24h) to the *public* square of Twitter.

There, the cultural reboot could begin.
@Alyssa_Milano was the one to blow it up and begin to show the "true magnitude of the problem."

Over the next 3 days, the network generated 628,457 nodes (tweets + retweets).

But most of the sharing was carried out by a highly cohesive network of 57,074 accounts (77% female, 73% in US, 55% aged 18-34) which guaranteed a fast viral spread

"It's an extremely dense network" says @abc3d (who made this viz with @PulsarPlatform + @Gephi).

"Almost every single tweet here has a retweet, which is super unusual for any Twitter dataset I've seen."

yellow = retweets
The most popular tweet of them all –with 54,090 RTs and 151,939 likes to this day– was by journalist @apbenven.

She acknowledged that we might be only seeing the tip of the iceberg.

"Survivors don't owe you their story."

L.A. 12,137
London 11,817

Portland 3,207
Philadelphia 3,052
New Delhi 2,821
Austin 2,751
Houston 2,739
Mumbai 2,652
Over the course of this year, #MeToo spread throughout society and spawned other hashtags, including #TimesUp and #WhyIDidntReport

The peaks in the graph coincide with Harvey Weinstein resigning, #metoo activists being named person of the year, and the Golden Globes.
And over the past 45 days, #metoo has heated up again on Twitter, as the movement exerted pressure in ousting Les Moonves, CEO of CBS, and forcing a brief political standstill over the nomination of US Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh.
More than a decade ago, civil rights activist @TaranaBurke started the movement to help describe the pervasiveness of sexual assault in society:

"I know exactly how you feel. That happened to me too,” she said.

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

https://t.co/FBfXhUrH5d


Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.


...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.


Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.

I'm going to do two history threads on Ethiopia, one on its ancient history, one on its modern story (1800 to today). 🇪🇹

I'll begin with the ancient history ... and it goes way back. Because modern humans - and before that, the ancestors of humans - almost certainly originated in Ethiopia. 🇪🇹 (sub-thread):


The first likely historical reference to Ethiopia is ancient Egyptian records of trade expeditions to the "Land of Punt" in search of gold, ebony, ivory, incense, and wild animals, starting in c 2500 BC 🇪🇹


Ethiopians themselves believe that the Queen of Sheba, who visited Israel's King Solomon in the Bible (c 950 BC), came from Ethiopia (not Yemen, as others believe). Here she is meeting Solomon in a stain-glassed window in Addis Ababa's Holy Trinity Church. 🇪🇹


References to the Queen of Sheba are everywhere in Ethiopia. The national airline's frequent flier miles are even called "ShebaMiles". 🇪🇹
