Academia.edu is getting more and more ludicrous all the time. Latest email from them:
"Hi Anna, the wolf recently confirmed that your paper Birth Narratives in Indo-European Mythology mentions them."
Very coherent and helpful.
I guess I need to unsubscribe from even more of their useless emails […]

Less good: I can see that I have followers on Bluesky, but I can't see who all of them are. Also, if a Bluesky account comments on a post, I can see that a comment is there but I can't see it or respond unless that account is bridged to Mastodon. (I'm not being rude and ignoring you!) I'm also […]

It's been a few months now since I bridged my Mastodon account to Bluesky. It's not a perfect system, but I do think it's very worth doing.
