Read on Twitter
so tl;dr on the sciencing_bi thing for people that aren& #39;t scientists or do not care:
it seems like Bethann, famous for botching MeTooStem, ran an account where she cosplayed an indigenous anthro prof at ASU, but incredibly was only exposed after having the account die of covid-19

people trying to look for ASU press releases on the death found that every photo posted by sciencing_bi was a stock photo, and that the only person who communicated with them outside of twitter DMs was bethann
this arc culminated in a (retrospectively) hilarious eulogy thread by bethann, in which she really wants to hammer home that she had a cool Hopi friend
other fun details: bethann held a zoom memorial session for BI yesterday, BI once directed venmo beer money to bethann& #39;s venmo (to preserve anonymity), and a reddit user claiming to be BI was supposedly traced to somewhere in the southeast (BethAnn teaches at Vanderbilt)
