Emulating #Mastodon etiquette... so a short Introduction:
Hi there,
I do research on #Elections, #MediaBias, #Polcomm, #Populism, #MediaAndMigration, #ConspiracyBelief & the #Pandemic. I am based at #UNIVIE. My interest include #Boardgames, #Birds & anything #Scifi. Got quite some #SlothFacts if I need to break the Ice. I toot in #German & #English. "Mostly" professional stuff but also goofy & commenting day to day politics in #Austria. The idea is to do some #ScienceComm for society at large.
