Beyonce winning Best Country Album at the Grammys gonna piss off allll the right people.

Janey Godley’s funeral service has been posted on YouTube. In her eulogy it’s mentioned several times how she stood up for trans people (and was hounded for it - even having to seek refuge in a church to escape a ‘gender critical’ transphobe!) Watch ➡️ www.youtube.com/live/Ok04Gq4...

99% of the advice people give for using Bluesky amounts to “don’t willingly have a terrible experience”, and the messed up thing is that peoples experience online has gotten so bad they legitimately need to be reminded of that

As I have somehow surpassed 7k followers on here I thought it might be nice to do a giveaway: All 7 of my books to one lovely winner. Just share and like to be in with a chance! 😁📚

It’s so nice to be at the stage of a lifetime of a platform when everyone mostly agrees the people running it are working hard and doing a good job. Let’s enjoy that while we can!

1. The Wizard Of Oz (and to be fair, I watch it annually and love it) 2. Hot Fuzz. I cannot hear anyone saying "the greater good" without following up with "the greater good". It's a wonderfully quotable film.

Completely agree. I saw Wicked tonight, and it was phenomenal. I *love* Wicked and have seen it multiple times, so I was nervous about what they might do. I needn't have worried.

I am so pleased that Holly, and by extension Smol Paul, have come to Bluesky.

As snow seems to have ground Edinburgh to a halt, I'm spending the day with shit Christmas movies on Netflix and wrapping some presents. Ho ho ho!

As a terminally online cishet white person, I'm glad there's less wankers here than on the Other Place.

It's staggering that any country would let this happen to something it's good at. Honestly think that when we look back at this disaster - which is only in its initial stages - it'll be seen as a national scandal. There should at least be an independent investigation. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The term “culture war” is a red flag for pure rank bullshit. Is it a culture war to exist?

AOC comes out swinging against a Nancy Mace for targeting Sarah McBride. "They're doing this so that Nancy Mace can ... fundraise off an email. They're not doing this to protect people. They're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kinds. And everybody should reject it. It's gross."

I feel like this was the greatest celebrity post of all time because you initially want to make fun of it because we’re all irony poisoned jerks but the sheer scale of human compassion overwhelms it and you end up going yes Vincent I also want to help a pig see the stars for the first time

This is also my favourite genre ❤️

ok one more "how we do it on bluesky" re: "block, don't engage." it's not that anybody wants to tell you what to do -- it's that we collectively realized that this is what works. it works really great! zero, zero response needed. just block! don't argue at all with dickheads! try it! you'll see.

After an intense round of zoomies, Kevin has taken himself to bed (bunted his way under the duvet) for some quiet time

Apparently I saw the 100th performance of Macbeth last night. I'm a Shakespeare dunce but the performances were all amazing. Highly recommended.

Hey new users— we’ve been trying to build a strong culture of expecting alt text. Take it from me, because I’ve heard from them: there are blind people on this app and they appreciate being included. You can also turn on a setting that prevents you from posting images without it, if you forget

I'm in London for the weekend and saw this beautiful sculpture last night. The artist is Marinella Senatore. You can find it, along with loads of other brilliant light sculptures on the South Bank.

Forgot I had an account here, but trying to see how this works now I've deactivated the Other Account on The Other Platform...!

This might be the best pun I've ever seen.

Today I am "Keep away from other animals".
