Getting Started

Welcome to all our new followers! 💚

After another depressing week, some levity: compliments from my YA kids Oldest kid: "You're not aging as poorly as most white women" Middle kid: "You sound 95% normal on the phone" IDK WTF Youngest kid: "I didn't say being basic is bad, I just said that you ARE basic" Meh, I'll take it.

Remember, no matter what is said, we are going to continue to: Stay calm Stay clearheaded Stay focused Stay factual Stay aware Stay vigilant Stay present Stay connected Stay active and stay ready

If you want your faith in humanity restored just go through the Internet Archive collections for a little bit and see all the beautiful and fascinating things people are digitizing and collecting for free on their own time

This week's winning MAGA critique of my Fb post about the perpetually disgusting Oval Office scuffle: "If you would just stop being so biased you would understand that Trump is right about everything." then hypocritical garble about Jesus being MAGA or Trump being God, IDK. We might be doomed.

Okay, so I have been low-key lurking here for a few days to try to get a general idea of what this platform is all about. I'm weaning myself off of Facebook and trying to consolidate some form of social connection amidst this hostile political climate. Bluesky feels...safe.
