Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania have created a new interactive map revealing the well-being and personality traits of communities across the United States.

The map is the culmination of five years of compiling and analyzing Twitter data. Researchers mined more than 37 billion publicly shared, geo-tagged tweets for evidence of personality traits like openness and extraversion.

Researchers reinforced the Twitter analysis with government-reported socioeconomic and health data like rates of unemployment and heart-disease mortality. Scientists organized the information for further analysis and comparisons using county boundaries.

"The World Well-Being Project was established on the idea that we can measure psychological states of large populations in real time by analyzing their social media content," project co-founder Johannes Eichstaedt, a Penn postdoctoral fellow, said in a news release. "To get here, we collected huge data sets, built language-based prediction models, ran those models over tweets and demographic information and extracted language patterns associated with specific traits."

Identifying places were heart disease and diabetes are most concentrated can help policy makers deploy exercise and other health and wellness programs in the right areas.

There's only one personality thanks to the Liberals, the Teachers the professors and Television presenters. Everyone is angry and pissed off with a foul shitty mood.

The YEARS AND YEARS the Shit Libs have bemoaned Conservatives and called them angry they are the most full of shit mother fuckers on the planet.

Had Obama's whole 8 years been about purging the Liberals and resisting you cocksuckers, none of you mother fuckers would be here right now, you violent evil creeps!

The conservatives have learned passive resistance we patiently waited ignored your shit. Now Trump has Secrete Service Cops in tactical SWAT gear.
Come throw rocks at us now at official functions you stupid dip shits. Be the first to try out our new pine box.

It's rehab time again for TPB. A month or so of drying out and getting straight will get him back up to semi lucid again.

I think he needs electroshock therapy.
