A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

Canada will retaliate against Trump with tariffs on US goods

A Palestinian boy and his cat emerged from the rubble caused by an Israeli air strike as he headed to the hospital for treatment.

Here’s my sunset to send you all some peace. ✨

Good morning, Blue Sky. Being resilient is easier when you're surrounded by the right people. Build communities that make you smarter and tougher for the battles ahead. Never give up hope. Never stop fighting for what is right. And just. Whatever comes our way, we will face it together.

My husband and I went to a dog adoption event yesterday to hang out with our older son and his girlfriend, who were volunteering there. We were NOT going to adopt another dog. Absolutely, positively NOT. Meet our new 3-month-old puppy (a rescue from PR). She adopted us, lol. Any ideas for a name? 🐶

Buddy’s Sunday nap!

Enjoy some sanity. The internet was made for videos like this one. Feel free to share the love.

Buddy Boy!

Lost my sweet Susie at 18 years old..

100 years ago tomorrow. New York Times, November 23, 1924: “The automobile looms up as a far more destructive piece of mechanism than the machine gun. The reckless motorist deals more death than the artilleryman. … Immediate action [is necessary] to halt the homicidal orgy of the automobile.”

Trans folks are preparing for Trump 2.0 by stockpiling hormones, updating legal documents, moving states and, as always, engaging in mutual aid. “The government is going to abandon us but we’re not going to abandon each other,” said Jan, a 57-year-old trans woman. www.huffpost.com/entry/trans-...

I love playing bluegrass and when I see stuff like this it gets me motivated to grab the guitar and try my own version.

I'm totally OK with being called woke. It just means that I'm showing off my green flags. Happy to follow others with green flags. #woke

Good morning world ☀️

“Canada is not immune to a toxic, polarized political landscape. Pierre Poilievre is reading from the same rage-based, authoritarian-loving MAGA playbook.” Start paying attention, Canada — we’re next | @mtltoula.bsky.social

Gladiator 2 was so good!

Watch your notifications and replies carefully... There are already MAGA folks coming over from Twitter... "To own the LIBS"... Just BLOCK them and move on. Don't engage... The more they get BLOCKED the better for the rest of us on Blue Sky...

This is particularly gratifying.

Another gorgeous woody from a trip to Central American last year... the Black-cheeked Woodpecker. This male had been hammering away in this old dead trunk for sometime! 😊🖤 #WoodpeckerWednesday 📷 🪶 🌿 #birds #nature #photography

One thing I hope we can do as Bluesky gets larger is be less tolerant of the resistance grifters who will try to hack the platform for engagement and growth without any interest in adding anything substantive or meaningful It’s a different kind of troll.

Joe Scarborough and Mika from Morning Joe, their ratings plummeting, made a pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago because they decided if you can't beat him, grovel for access and help normalize him AGAIN. STOP 👏 WATCHING👏 MORNING👏 JOE👏

“Events such as the Freedom Convoy are representative of where the far right is going, how it is recruiting, how it is communicating internally and with Canadians at large, and how it is progressing.” Authors of new book “The Great Right North” explain.

Meet Murphy.

Okay, y’all… I have finally decided that retreat is the better part of valor. Bringing some rainbow energy over to these blue skies. #bydhttmwdi

My poor Susie! 19 years old and it was her time to cross the rainbow bridge 😞😞😞

Goodbye X!!
