Launched a newsletter YESTERDAY and I'm not only posting essays there, but also trying to do some of the news aggregation there I used to do on Facebook. Like this. meditations-in-an-emergency.ghost.io/week-three-t... - ThreadSky

Launched a newsletter YESTERDAY and I'm not only posting essays there, but also trying to do some of the news aggregation there I used to do on Facebook. Like this. https://meditations-in-an-emergency.ghost.io/week-three-the-pushback/?fbclid=IwY2xjawIOb9xleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHfB0d6hofheE4V7pJwFFMhSvk4WmDaIk6F91R76Vr5-73jSi919x2Rgiig_aem_sIpZs_-FZLP7t4k-TPO0Xg

“We have a president with a tenuous grip on small legislative majorities who is out of the gate with a flurry of dramatically unpopular orders and who has just demonstrated his weakness on the international stage.”👍

Actually - prayer not yet fully answered. @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social please please post your repost of Debi Jackson to your newsletter. (Of course giving her credit. And encourage her to get off FB!)

Perfect! I was forwarded your recent excellent FB post, started sharing it, thought “why is Solnit still on 🤬 FB?!”), came over here, and poof: prayer answered. Thank you!! Will begin sharing prolifically. ❤️

Please change the purple background. It is VERY hard to read.

I think it’s great to sort of normalize that stuff like this that would usually go on FB can also be in the safer confines of a newsletter. Then promote it out to social. Good choice. One-stop shop.

Yes yes yes! Subscribed.

@rebeccasolnit.bsky.social The light purple background isn't great for accessibility - would you consider changing the color scheme for readability?
