For the LOVE of my nervous system, can yall PLEASE stop making your event flyers look like the front page of an obituary?! ABEG!

☺️

I haven’t regularly used the bird app in probably a decade, but I recently remembered how much I looked forward to seeing new threads from @metroadlib.bsky.social . I hope you’re well and wish you many brooches.

Golden time of day.

Took me a long time to realize that I am allowed to disagree with or refuse someone’s criticism, solicited or unsolicited.

Law. Still learning it, but law.

First of all, Imma need you to use your inside voice...

Thank you! <3 I really appreciate it!

I rarely respond in short-answer. If you call for advice, be prepared to go on an epic journey filled with analogies, anecdotes, and some tabernacle-worthy revelations. If you need the cliffnotes, I'm not the one to call. But...BUT...9.9 times outta 10, I'll leave you better than I found you.

I think one of the biggest shifts I've experienced when looking at photographs of myself is interrupting the body dysmorphia with beautiful reminders of what I have discovered this body is capable of.

I’m checking my hydroponic seedlings instead of doing research 🙃

Me: *12 y/o, listening to Too Close by Next, singing along, not knowing what it was about* Mom: I don’t know how I feel about you listening to that. Me: “get on the scene…like a sex machine?” Mom: Touché. Me:

Can you use your inside voice, please? 😯

Gig last night was special. I was on it.

Safety first.

You just gonna raise your voice at me like that?

blacksky feel like one big ass group chat

Watching Abbott and it got me thinking about how fun it would be to run under one of those gym class parachutes just one more time 😪

Yeah, it feels weird and comforting at the same time. And a little eerie, like my intuition was trying to say:

I feel like I’ve been prepping for this season for a while…between my many skillsets and the hobbies and hyperfixations I’ve amassed and invested in over the last four years, I am sitting on several potential jobs that I wouldn’t have to leave my house to do.

Goodbye yams. I SAID GOOD DAY!

Any Duke Ellington School of the Arts alumni on here yet? 👀 #desaforever

A friend once told me I was easy to love. My inner teenager heard that and he couldn’t help but cry cause he remembered being made to feel like he wasn’t. Get you some friends like this 👆🏽

I’m actually shook for that one I get to love the way I love myself… Y’all ain’t read that right the first time. I’ma skeet that again— I SAID… I’m SHOOK at the THOUGHT of LOVING someone the WAY I LOVE myself.

Please please please please please 😩

I’m holding out hope! 😂

It is an incredible show.

Career changer here- wishing you the best!

Man listen..I stay on the #blacksky tab and legit forget anyone else exists.

Happens to the best of us. *hugs*

🥺🥺🥺 hopefully he comes on here, searches his name, and follows us all 😂

Man WHAT. My mom used to take me on the regular. I stayed with some library books, neighborhood and my school library.

This feels like how I remember the bird app felt when I first joined. I hope it stays this way.

Gave up the bird app a while ago, but almost didn’t because Durand Bernarr and Pam Grier followed me on there 🥺
