You in high school vs now - I wore thick eyeliner and didn't smile for photos.

Any update on this @esb.lol - I know it's in clients like @deck.blue @skeetdeck.bsky.social & Ouranos, but would love to see it rolled out so that the average user starts using tags, outline tags are vastly superior to inline tags, and more folks will use them!

If you know of more community handles, please put them in the comments!

okay this is REALLY promising! pinksky is an alternative wrapper for bsky, which you can specify for your art tags, without needing to do anything! my profile with my 'artpost' tag, looks great already?!

5 shows I've been loving in 2025 so far - Severance, Mythic Quest, Harley Quinn, The White Lotus, and Abbott Elementary. Apple TV & Max are represented well! Looking forward to the upcoming Righteous Gemstones season too. #tvsky

I was really looking forward to #TheWhiteLotus s3 theme song as Cristóbal Tapia de Veer is the GOAT & the last 2 themes were incredible, but I'm not feeling it, I think it's too dissimilar from the first two, which were clearly the same amazing song with regional twists. Still good, but a miss imo.

Mastodon is planning on adding quote posts, Tumblr style: the quote above and the reply below. I wrote about the impact on interoperable platforms having different ways to display quote posts fediversereport.com/fediverse-re...

Zappy news! Best girl Yunaka is out in Fire Emblem Heroes today, so here are some photos cosplaying her - regular fit & rave version! featuring Engage cosplayers, triple Yunakas, Marth, & Micaiah (I like to think of them as the emblem versions - emblem Micaiah in FEH when?)

Right now, visits from my tiny circle of friends are exactly what I need (it's a difficult time for me). George RR Martin (he’s roadtripping with Michael Cassutt; was great to meet him!) stopped by last night and got to meet my space cats. 😊 Ah, cats and friends. They are joy.

I edit longform video podcasts, mostly (but not always)! My timelines are usually 1-3 hours long. Here's a tidy edit timeline and a messier one. I like to color code and label as much as I can, when time permits. I clean up my audio in Audition first, & use Descript & Capcut for some edits.

YES. Star Wars Visions is my favorite of the Star Wars shows, very glad to hear season 3 is coming. These are up in my stairwell.

Here’s some cool stuff you can do with Bluesky

Bluesky dev: I'm gonna design an app with a clean and sleek interface Bluesky Trust&Safety team: I'm gonna make a labeling system so people can do their own moderation Bluesky user:

If you’re following this George R. R. Martin account, it’s bogus. It’s not him. How do I know? Because I just asked him. Plus he followed up and just posted on his official blog that it’s not him.

People of Bluesky. Let’s get to know each other better. What is one of your favourite movies? Quote share your answer in a gif! #filmsky 🎥

In importing my old tweets, I saw this old post... Eve Lindley is also THE Lest in #Arcane, who I fell in love with instantly, damn I'm consistent.

Used Porto to import a bunch of my tweets here, all backdated! It doesn't work with retweets and replies and some media doesn't import, but images do, and now I don't feel as bummed about my lost history. Link for those interested: chromewebstore.google.com/detail/porto...

🛡💧Jonquil’s pool-Maidenpool One of the illustrations I’ve made for #TheRiseOfTheDragon by George RR Martin and @westeros.org . It shows the seat of house Mooton and the great stone bathhouse surrounding the spring-fed pool maintained by holy sisters. #asoiaf #HouseOfTheDragon #HOTD #digitalart

💡 Tip: You can set your website as your username on Bluesky! This is one form of self-verification, and we especially encourage official organizations and brands to do this! Examples include @npr.org @react.dev @duolingobrasil.com.br. Here's our guide for how to do this:

#letterboxd top 4 - forever wishing it was a top 5 bc I feel bad omitting Fantastic Planet.

I love all iterations of #PamelaIsley but the current comics run #PoisonIvy is my very fav. Recent cosplay from Halloween & DragonCon, ft. #HarleyQuinn Give us a movie or tv show! 🥺

Fun fact: Bluesky supports 2 types of tags Twitter-style tags like #this one inside your post & Tumblr-style tags that sit outside of it. The latter isn’t visible on the official app (yet?) but you can add them via Deck Blue. See how I added "hidden" Tumblr-style tags to my previous post:
