A study involving nearly one million adolescents across 78 countries found that boys tend to be happier than girls, and, paradoxically, this gender gap in happiness is widest in societies that have the strongest commitment to gender equality. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/01…

How big of a platform is @Twitter? Now that Elon Musk made view counts public, we (Mohsen Mosleh) can find out ANSWER: Not nearly as big as it looks! For accounts with lots of followers, only a small fraction (~1%) see median tweet 😬 (and this overcounts, as it includes RT views)
