Everyone - @huwmartincollage.bsky.social is here! Give him a follow, so he may brighten up a gloomy winter with his beautifully crafted collage ❤️

Hoooray! @deershed.bsky.social are here, making miserable Monday rather marvellous. Give them a follow and get it in your diary for July ❤️💃

I think it is right for me to mention that I have a YouTube channel, where I put episodes of a (silly) weekly series and this year shall be putting all manner of other stuff. I’ve wrestled with it, and I do think it’s right. So there we are. m.youtube.com/@watsoncomed...

The Bluesky Directory is now huge. Something for everyone, please share.

It would be so great if you could give my botanical illustration & mental health workshop below a RT if you have a moment. Thankyou 🌿

How do I love thee, Camden Town? ❤️

If I was picking person of the year, without a shadow of a doubt, it would be Gisele Pelicot. She has and will change things around the world.

Breaking: doctors starting to suspect that women's bodies work differently than men's

Afternoon thought, exploring representation of character on my Creative Writing MA. The #BechdelTest sets 3 criteria for a text (film, book, play) that: i) involves at least two women ii) who talk to each other iii) about something besides a man. Not judging, just can't think... Mind blank. Anyone?

If anyone’s looking for the Short Cuts Open Letter, you can find the organisers sign up page here - docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

A timely reminder to carpe the f*** out of diem.

Hannah is here! @fryrsquared.bsky.social

This moment in Bluesky is a great example of how joy itself can be defiance and resistance. We are just hanging out, shitposting, being silly, happy, and normal. It is being treated as if it is transgressive, opting out of the endless negativity. Because in a way, it is. Joy is my favorite weapon.

In a world where podcasts increasingly rule the airwaves, Short Cuts is a regular, important reminder of how excellent radio broadcasts can be. Please give it a listen and consider adding your name to this petition. If it worked for 6 Music…🤞🏻

Saturday morning Pete

NEW: Weekend News Agents. Would recommend anyone thinking hard about the assisted dying bill to listen to this one. Kim Leadbeater on her legislation, why she thinks the time is now and the legacy of her sister’s tragic murder. Listen now. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

I'M ALIVE!!! Fuck you, Schrödinger!

Just spent a pleasant 10 mins reading through this thread. This is what I’m here for. For what it’s worth, I would say £25-£30.

If you haven’t yet found the right starter pack, may I suggest this one? It’s delicious.

Morning!!

Hello, I’m Tamsin. I’ve brought a bottle, some fairy lights and a hula hoop. Hoping there’s still a friendly person on the door, some tasty nibbles, interesting conversations, a few laughs and at least a couple of cats.

Well this is super helpful. Thank you @kitdewaal.bsky.social
