I found Instagram's finsta. The platform has been posting on the anonymous account "notfit4main" since October. The content is mostly inspirational shitposts and celebrity takeovers.
How Rihanna found a gap at the Olympics and jumped on the opportunity
At the Olympics there are sponsors everywhere.
Every brand wants to be seen at the games, but there’s so much clutter.
Athletes, already sponsored.
Venues, already sponsored.
Merchandise, already sponsored.
But volunteers?
That’s the gap that Fenty Beauty identified and jumped on the opportunity.
Volunteers who award winners their medals will receive Fenty Beauty makeup kits to create a “designated look” for the event.
Fenty Beauty makeup artists will be present on-site to help volunteers create the perfect look.
That’s 600 volunteers turned into Fenty Beauty models getting prime time visibility during the games.

Popular 36 brands in all.
Here is an interesting fact: You will see that we have published the paper in a general medicine open access journal instead of a high impact nutrition/ sports journal. Well, we did submit this paper to multiple sports/ nutrition journals and not surprisingly, it was rejected from all of those - I wondered why and then found the answer. Many members of the editorial board, including editot-in-chief of those journals were "advisors," "consultants," or "promoters" of certain protein/supplement brands! Lot of conflict of interests for them to peer-review and publish our paper which openly took names and provided transparent analyses. Peer-review publishing is really broken in a sense. But then journals like Lippincott's Medicine provided a neutral ground for us to publish and also we could afford the additional open access fee indepedent of the full funding.
The total cost of funding this project is
INR 700,000 ($8400, by Paras)+INR 192,000 ($2300, by Liver Doc Team)=892,000 ($10700)
Please see the abstract section. Lot of information snippets are provided there. Also please read the whole study, our detailed finding and its implications. Focus on the supplementary files (which can be downloaded) and given at the end of the manuscript online.

Why do we consistently just want to take away peoples jobs & career paths.
We’re gonna get to a point where the only human jobs available are those who program these things.
X's branding confusion seems to be commonplace, with a new poll finding that 69% of U.S. X users still refer to the platform as Twitter and to posts as “tweets.” https://t.co/550lQHSvS9
I think this campaign is brilliant. Visually, it’s strong as hell. However, and this is a big however, this lacked cultural sensitivity. Casting missed the mark.
