hey, @jay.bsky.team - we need a way to remove followers. I don't want to mute or block them, but why are so most of my new followers many utterly random, small accounts that have nothing to do with my interests or contacts? & why is engagement so hard here?

such a cool thing happened! a young man stopped me on the sidewalk & asked for my advice. he has a crush on a co-worker & wanted to know how to proceed. he's gay, & foreign, & I think he comes from a place where anties or grandmas help out with this, so I did my best. 1/2

Every Trump cabinet pick is someone that women have to cover their drink around. Even the picks that are women.

Beware huge starter packs. I just started checking out a big anti-MAGA block pack & found a couple of clearly satiric & progressive members who will now be throttled.
