Multiplicity: Adventures on Twitter

It’s always uncertain whether to mention when something is going well. Twitter is infamous for raining cats and dogs on even the most modest parade. But for now, for us, the platform has been a useful tool with a low ratio of junk.

We have connected with many like-minded folks, multiples and allies, and found it useful for sharing our thoughts. Whether or not we go back later, the expression helps unpack and crystallize our thought process, making more room for new ideas, and more opportunity for connection with others. If you want advice on making a meaningful experience on Twitter, feel free to reach out.

If you join, be careful. Discuss with those you care about what the right balance of privacy and disclosure might be for you. But in 6 months with a modestly growing following, 50,000 people and counting have seen or passed by our tweets – some about multiplicity, others covering a range of topics. Our profile has been visited 1,500 times. (You can track your account data using analytics.twitter.com), a profile that mentions being openly multiple. That’s helpful and inspiring to a group of people in one body who just a few years ago were repeatedly warned to tell almost no one about our experience.

Please follow along and say hi @treemunity. Thanks to all the people who have been lovely so far on there. It means so much.
