Stuff that occurs to me

All of my 'how to' posts are tagged here. The most popular posts are about blocking and private accounts on Twitter, also the science communication jobs list. None of the science or medical information I might post to this blog should be taken as medical advice (I'm not medically trained).

Think of this blog as a sort of nursery for my half-baked ideas hence 'stuff that occurs to me'.

Not quite as dramatic as BlockedByGalloway but here's the homeopathy version ;)

Updated on 17 November 2015

The #homeopathy hashtag on Twitter is an interesting place. On it you can find good-natured disagreement as well as vindictive rudeness and sarcasm (probably more of that than the good-natured stuff). There are plenty of people tweeting really interesting articles about how people make sense of information and about the regulation of homeopathy etc. And plenty of people tweeting things that make you wonder how they manage to operate a computer.

You'll also find 'BrownBagPantry' and her list of people she's blocked. I've been on that list for ages - I think it's because I've tweeted negatively about homeopathy and disagreed with her (most of it fairly civil I thought) but her impressive list expands daily and she appears to go looking for people who have referred to homeopathy in a manner that might hurt its feelings, to add them to her list.

There's a small Parliament UK petition to get the Government to stop funding homeopathy on the NHS. The Government has already said that it will run a consultation next year to find out what people think about actually blacklisting homepathy (this involves adding homeopathic remedies to a list of medicines for which there is no reimbursement) so I'd be surprised if this petition made much difference.

I heard about the petition through BrownBagPantry and the thought of contacting everyone on her list and telling them about the petition amuses me no end. Of course there's no guarantee that anyone will want to sign the petition, but we've got until April next year so ... let's tell people!

A note about blocking people on Twitter
If someone has blocked you this won't make any difference to your ability to see their tweets if you're looking at the #homeopathy hashtag (as all public tweets show up in search results regardless of whether or not the person that sent them blocked you). Also remember that you can use Echofon and other non-Twitter apps to see the tweets of someone who's blocked you (in fact if you use these apps you may not notice that you've been blocked), or you can search from:theirname to view the tweets, or just log out (or use a second account). A block just stops you from sending tweets to the person who's blocked you or interacting (faveing / RTing) their tweets.

    1. A(nother) Twitter on homeopathy: shameless propaganda and ‘trolling’

      http://leeturnpenny.com/2015/06/01/another-twitter-on-homeopathy-shameless-propaganda-and-trolling/

      ReplyDelete

    Comment policy: I enthusiastically welcome corrections and I entertain polite disagreement ;) Because of the nature of this blog it attracts a LOT - 5 a day at the moment - of spam comments (I write about spam practices,misleading marketing and unevidenced quackery) and so I'm more likely to post a pasted version of your comment, removing any hyperlinks.

    Comments written in ALL CAPS LOCK will be deleted and I won't publish any pro-homeopathy comments, that ship has sailed I'm afraid (it's nonsense).
