To all the folks harping on an academic for writing and releasing a work in their field in a week, and for having no shame about releasing it on Twitter:
You’re not being very inclusive, folks. She wanted to post it on Twitter, not a blog. She did. Don’t waste all this thread time discussing Twitter. Discuss her work. Discuss her points. But please, stop wasting time and energy on the “meta” of her chosen communication platform in a thread about Viking textiles.

- yellowapple 9y ago"She wanted to post it on Twitter, not a blog" Therein lies the problem. Good research deserves good presentation, and 60 tweets where a Medium or Blogger or whatever post would've sufficed ain't exactly it. Likewise, it's hard to discuss her work when the presentation is sufficiently distracting to preclude actually viewing said work in a reasonable manner.
