1. This is "Hollie The Card".

She's a Doctor, Physician, PhD, MA, Clinical Psychologist, Hospital Consultant, PTSD consultant, Long Covid Consultant.

(Thread)

 2. Although sometimes she’s also an AUTHOR and English Academic.
3. A Hospital Consultant and ex Gymnast.

(Pinterest public profile)
4. A Physician, Doctor, or hospital consultant.

A “Hospital Consultant”, would probably mean a senior doctor, in the UK at least.
5. Hollie changes her Twitter picture and bio so often, it’s hard to keep up with her qualifications.
6. Hollie has become popular on right wing twitter and perhaps beyond.

With some high profile followers, like TV's Eammon holmes. And radio host Mark Dolan.

Former Kremlin advisor Alexander Nekrassov (Twitter username: StirringTrouble), follows Hollie too.
7. Two people that Hollie targets with Tweets, more than pretty much any other, are:

@Femi_Sorry, a British political activist

and

@DavidLammy, a British MP.
8. Hollie has tweeted negative things at @Femi_Sorry over 100 times.

She’s tweeted mostly negative things and insults at @DavidLammy, more than 300 times.

Neither of them have ever replied, so the messages could be defined as unwanted trolling.
9. What does Hollie say to @DavidLammy and @Femi_Sorry in her unsolicited messages?

Not nice.
10. The KFC trope.
11. What does darken the continent mean?
12. It goes on and on, 100s of messages.
13. And to @Femi_Sorry, the content is similar.

"Exported"
14. “Mental health” and “suburban terrorist”

There's a near daily barrage.
15. Can Hollie claim to having a transparent social media presence and “real” online life?
16. “Who Funds You!?
The real people want to know!”

- Signed the Oxford/Luxembourg Doctor Academic Author Gymnast PhD Long Covid Medical Consultant Lecturer.
17. It goes on, and on, and on.
18. A separate, near-daily, stream of insults.
19. Hollie’s profile might be somewhat vague about her medical career, variously a “physician” a “medical consultant” or a PhD / Lecturer.

But her public comments are unambiguous.
20. ”I am a doctor as well. You are a fat doctor”
21. "Fantasist"
22. A front line doctor.
23. Before 2020, Hollie didn't claim to be a doctor. She was a bit negative about the NHS and doctors back then.
24. Confirming Hollie’s status as a medical doctor is difficult.

As she has used many different spellings and names over the past 15 years.

Including “Hillary Faversham” in the mid 2000s. On her old website from that time.
25. Or Hollie Cardiff.
26. Hollie The Card’s unique Twitter ID is 770226141839974400

The account used to be called @ HollieCardiff before it was Hollie The Card.
26. There are a few other variations, but none show up as registered with the GMC.
27. Hollie isn’t listed on the University of Oxford’s staff and grad student listing directory, under any of her names, either.

There doesn’t appear to be anyone called “hollie”.
28. If Hollie is a medical doctor, or even an academic, wouldn’t it be better to post her views under her real name?
29. If Hollie posted her medical advice with a GMC registration number, or a name that can be looked up with the General Medical Council, her 18,000 followers would probably feel a lot more comfortable.
30. Hollie’s Facebook account is cryptic too and doesn't shed much more light on the medical / doctor question.
31. Welcome to Oxford-shire
32. Someone who has access to Hollie’s Facebook account, seems to have mistakenly captured a couple of seconds of his own face at the end of a video clip.

The last couple of seconds of this video, show his face, as he tried to upload a video of Hollie.
33. "Hello Sir!

Can you please tell me which hospital your doctor….friend…is currently a front line NHS doctor at?

Thankyou!"
34. Hollie’s medical advice might be appear a bit rude at times, when she calls other doctors fat, for example.

But thankfully her Doctorly advice doesn’t seem to include covid denial, or anti-vax stuff.
35. Everyone has the right to reinvent themselves, obvs.

But not everyone has the right to claim to be a doctor.

Or send near-daily harassment to political opponents.
36. Hollie used to call herself a “full time academic in the field of creative and performing arts", on her more recent website, now offline since 2019.

Which would be surely be a less risky claim to make, even if untrue.
37. Very normal. Very transparent. Totally Legit.

I didn't drink alcohol for 2020 and now I want to talk about it in a long twitter thread that should probably just be a blog post, but here goes:

(I get into topics like alcohol abuse, mental illness, homphobia, and parental death, just fyi)

Some background first: every year I do some kind of restriction. Last year I only re-read books, another year I didn’t buy any clothes. My dad is catholic and even though I hate the religion, something about the ‘fasting’ elements of lent and advent stuck with me.

I enjoy cutting myself off from things to create space in unexpected places. It's where Innovation and creativity flourish. I did some of my best work for Momofuku Nishi, and @davidchang told me I had to create an Italian cocktail program, but nothing could come from Italy.

My family also loved wine and used connoisseurship to cast consumption in a virtuous light. Opening that 4th bottle of Chateauneuf-de-Pape was *educational*

My mom once yelled at a wine steward for not letting my then-17-year-old brother have a glass of wine with our dinner.

Wine is great though! Beer, spirits, etc. They’re all fascinating things to study on many levels. (Hello I wrote a whole cocktail book)

Plus, they’re fun to drink and usually taste delicious and accompanied most major rituals in my life: birthday, Christmas, weddings, funerals…

"Leftist" twitter (i use quotation marks bc twitter leftists are bogus, not that Leftist ideology is bad) makes real progressives look really bad. And if you're wondering, *Britney Spears voice* I'm Not a Liberal, Not yet a "Leftist"

I'm fairly progressive. Elizabeth Warren was my #1. I know there are associations ppl make w white women who support her, but my black self liked her bc she has progressive values and seems fit to hold office. Bc progressivism in practice needs someone who knows how to govern.

She was called a snake by "leftists" for myriad reasons, but one of them was not quitting so Bernie could win. LMAO. Seriously.

That's when I noticed twitter "leftism" was a cult of personality. Bc if the closest person ideologically to Bernie is a snake for differing on her healthcare plan (not ideologically btw, just practically), then this shit is about that man. Not ideology.

Twitter "leftists" also have a race problem. HUGE race problem. "Solving class will help racism" is a STUPID political philosophy anyway, bc foundationally American economics is racist. Literally we're a world super power bc we didn't pay slaves for a century

Happy new year!

Long thread.
Someone in or behind twitter gave me a "this account violated the twitter rules..." supposedly for this reply (image 1 at bottom of thread). I appealed with "A question is hate?" They upheld their decision with: "Our support team has

determined that a violation did take place, and therefore we will not overturn our decision."

To proceed I deleted / removed the reply as prompted and was informed of a temporary limit of tweets, replies, likes, etc. for 6 hours (image 2). I could still access twitter and

see content. To test the restriction, i clicked the like button on a tweet and then was immediately greeted with the limit page but it increased 11 hours (image 3). After that i was then unable to browse twitter content and was met with the same "we've limited your

account" message every time i re-loaded it or clicked "continue to twitter" (image 4, @ 1am est)

In my experience, when a construct like a clique, fraternity, employer, or another attempts to elicit an emotional reaction or accept some aimless quest to divine the actual

cause or just toil in fear of a whipping for an unkwon reason at some unkown time, it's time to look elsewhere to maintain interest as who knows when, why, what, and how it will impose next. And that experience tells me accepting such nonsense terms brings more nonsense.

If you use it right, Twitter is the most powerful platform in the world.

But Twitter does a horrible job of showing you its advanced features.

Here are 10 of them you probably know nothing about:

The most underutilized Twitter feature: advanced search.

It blows my mind how few people know this.

Want to find someone's best tweets?

In the search bar, type:

from:dickiebush min_faves:500

Replace the handle and the number of likes as you see fit.

Another good advanced search tip:

Want to see everyone's tweets on a particular topic?

In the search bar, type:

from:dickiebush "consistency"

Again, replace the handle and keyword as you see fit.

You can filter by popularity too:

from:dickiebush "consistency" min_faves:100

We all have those people we don't want following us, but don't want to block.

Here's a good hack:

Block them, then unblock them.

This will unfollow you, but they'll never know.

Get mentioned in a tweet that is receiving way too many replies, turning your notifications into a disaster?

I've been there.

Click to expand the details of the tweet, then click the three dots on the top right-hand corner.

Then, click "mute this conversation."

So regarding to my "bombshell"...it's perhaps a bit less dramatic than many presumed, yet it still troubles me a lot, to the point that I wondered whether I should stop posting on certain things


You see, I realized in the last few months that, by translating information and news related to one of the fastest growing spaceflight powers of the world...I inadvertently became a spreader of PRC propaganda.

And with me exactly 180 degrees away from them, I feel scared.

It actually started a few years ago - it's not hard to meet Chinese Twitter users interested in spaceflight, either those living overseas or find a way to climb over the wall. Not surprisingly, many of these S/F enthusiasts are interested in their own military too.

This steadily grew with my followers' count until the flagship Chinese spaceflight missions of 2020 (Chang'e 5 especially but also many others) brought in dozens of them liking/re-tweeting my info tweets sometimes, and similar no. of such followers every month.

I do casually check these new followers/users sometimes. To my horror, far too many of them routinely insults, attacks, mocks others who they see as "anti-China" or spread potential mis-information, even blatant attacks, that started off w/ their state media/spokesperson.

Ever wonder how traders get in stocks before they explode? 🧐

Or find options that move 1,000% in a single day/week?🤯

I made a thread going over exactly how I find these stocks BEFORE they take off 🚀
👇👇👇

So, let's start with the software I use…

Finviz!! Finviz is a free website that I use to scan for stocks.

They have a lot of other cool features as well, but I only use their scanner.
👇

Head on over to finviz and go to the screener

Click on the “All” tab on the top and put in the criteria in the next tweet
👇

This is the first scan that I use for bullish swing setups
✅Quarter +10%
✅Week Down
✅Vol over 400k
✅Optionable
✅Price > $20
👇


The next scan I use is the opposite of the first one.

Simply change:
✅Quarter +10% to -10%
✅Week Down to Week up

This is my bearish scan for swing setups. 👇

Thrikkangode Sree Randu Moorthy Temple
Ottappalam, Kerala. 🚩
#keralatemples

This is very unique temple as Shiva and Vishnu both are in the “linga” form in the same Garbhagriham. The Srikovil is in a circular pattern. Temple's Prathishta was done by Parasurama.


Mahadeva and Maha Vishnu in the same Srikovil is very rare Prathishta, but poojas are done separately Dhara is done to Maha Vishnu here. People suffering from “KAIVISHAM” and mental illness are fully cured on drinking a medicinal herb supplied by a nearby family here.


The root of the banyan tree around the Ayyappa Sannidhanam is said to have great powers for skin ailments.

Very ancient temple but was covered with forest for many years.
Later two persons Chakki and Chaathan, while cutting trees their axe hit on the nearby
@SriramKannan77


Vigrahams and it suddenly started bleeding. Later Devaprashnam was held and thus found out that these were murthy's of Shiva and Vishnu which was worshipped long back. And thus temple is constructed here.

THE LESSER KNOWN MAHARANA OF MEWAR:RANA KUMBHA
Kumbalgarh Fort is one of most spectacular sites of India,atop a hill abt 3600ft above sea lvl in the https://t.co/LkjmzzBhE2's second largest wall is surrounding it.A fort wall second only to Great wall of China,still not so famous.


This longest wall of India stretches to almost 36Km and encompasses a few hills, many step wells and over 360 temples and palaces. Birth place of the Great Maharana Pratap, this fort is named after another Great Maharana of Mewar, who is not given his due in the History.


Builder of many architectural marvels like the Kumbhalgarh Fort, an erudite scholar, a patron of arts, music, culture & a great warrior was the Great Maharana Kumbha. Yet we don't know much about him. Let's get to know him a little.


Maharana Kumbha was the undefeated King of Mewar from 1433-1468CE.He never lost any battles &kept Mewar out of the reach of Islamic Invaders till the time he was alive. Born on Makar Sakranti to Maharana Mokal & Saubhagya Devi, Rana Kumbha was only 13 when he ascended the throne.


His father was killed by his own relatives in a political conspiracy. He was a powerful King about 8ft tall &charismatic personality,a hardcore Hindu Rajput who could shed his life for Hindu honour without thinking twice.He was an ardent skillful warrior who never lost a battle.

Recently, the @CNIL issued a decision regarding the GDPR compliance of an unknown French adtech company named "Vectaury". It may seem like small fry, but the decision has potential wide-ranging impacts for Google, the IAB framework, and today's adtech. It's thread time! 👇

It's all in French, but if you're up for it you can read:
• Their blog post (lacks the most interesting details): https://t.co/PHkDcOT1hy
• Their high-level legal decision: https://t.co/hwpiEvjodt
• The full notification: https://t.co/QQB7rfynha

I've read it so you needn't!

Vectaury was collecting geolocation data in order to create profiles (eg. people who often go to this or that type of shop) so as to power ad targeting. They operate through embedded SDKs and ad bidding, making them invisible to users.

The @CNIL notes that profiling based off of geolocation presents particular risks since it reveals people's movements and habits. As risky, the processing requires consent — this will be the heart of their assessment.

Interesting point: they justify the decision in part because of how many people COULD be targeted in this way (rather than how many have — though they note that too). Because it's on a phone, and many have phones, it is considered large-scale processing no matter what.
