John Aravosis πΊπΈπ¬π·π³οΈβπ engagement report
@aravosis - 96K followers on X
Measured over 29 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 15, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 511 interactions against 96K followers, an engagement rate of 0.533%. Measured over 29 original posts, its engagement rate beats 80% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 54K times each, and 0.951% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 56.1% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 27% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 02:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 29 posts sampled, 59% carry an image or video and 28% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 85K interactions, about 167x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
John Aravosis πΊπΈπ¬π·π³οΈβπ's engagement rate beats 80% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 39% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 02:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 59% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 28% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 59% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 28% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 225 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

Flock takes their privacy very seriously. But the ethical gray area in surveillance technology works both ways. Under no circumstances should elected officials or public servants enjoy an expectation of privacy when spending tax dollars to attend a surveillance lobbying event. https://t.co/nipzT55exI

It's all a LARP: NYC DSA Chair Gustavo Gordillo says his family fled the Peruvian Maoist terrorist organization Shining Path for the US because of the "imposition of American capitalism and imperialism." Then, his parents became millionaires. He went to Yale, never earned a degree. Then, he went to Yale again to get a degree in sculpture. Then, he joins the IBEW as an apprentice. Drops out of the apprenticeship. All while living in a $1.5m home in Brooklyn purchased by his parents and still LARPing as "Union Gustavo" and raking in $95,000 a year from the DSA. This is the chair of the largest DSA chapter in the country.

π³Sean Duffy threatens Canada during bizarre Fox hit π³ Transportation Secretary Duffy for some reason weighed in on Trump's Canada tariffs, lying that Mark Carney "doesn't have a military" and threatening that if his country "thinks they're gonna go to war with Donald Trump and actually win that war with the US, I think it's foolish on their part" Duffy also bragged about the fact that beer will be sold at today's Indycar race in downtown DC as though it's one of Trump's signature accomplishments The whole thing was weird. Here's a supercut:

The next 24 hours will see staggering increases at the pump for both gasoline & diesel. Fuel margins have yet to catch up with previous wholesale hikes. Watch for huge increases in Great Lakes and Rocky Mountain states in particular.
