They don't want to teach history so they can repeat it.

I haven't been posting because I'm literally lost for words.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

Note for the upcoming holiday season,,, some of us are on a sobriety journey and mocktails or non-alcoholic beer options make a big difference 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Kendrick Lamar beat Drake in a rap battle so thoroughly that Drake called the police. I will never stop laughing about this!

You need to have an orientation towards working on your problems even while suffering under the weight of your negative emotions.

A devastating favorite from TBQ5. Waste Hierarchy, by Sam Hernandez. "At this point, recycling feels like a rosary said after death / Santa Maria Crunchwrap Supreme" tacobellquarterly.org/waste-hierar...

Not liking Kendrick Lamar is a bright red flag. And I’m not sorry, idiot!

MUSTAAAAAAAAAAARD

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

Get up and get it.

Felt. Don't feel like I have much poetry in me at the moment. The voices are quiet.

Zehahaha

We left X and joined Bluesky because those against our parks said, “If you don’t like it, leave.” So we did. And now they’re saying, “No, come back so we can say mean things to you—it makes us feel important.”

To have been gifted a supportive community is a blessing. Shout out to those who've had to wander to find theirs. And those who still yearn in the wandering.

The day I was surgically removed from my mother, I’m still pissed that the doctor didn’t warn baby me, “This is going to hurt,” while gesturing to life, outside the womb.

Stripping away societal expectations and developing your authentic voice is a necessary part of your personal growth. To thine own self be true.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me. I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

Morning Friends! It’s a brand new day. In dark times clarity of vision and purpose are possible. I’m glad that we are here together. 💙

A gentle reminder that no one on social media owes you anything- not likes, not engagement, not a follow back. You curate your own space and time here. If you want to spend that time threatening to unfollow people for not following back that's on you, but know that behavior is strange.

“Bluesky is an echo chamber!” Our Reply: Echo chamber? Nah, we prefer to call it surround sound for facts.

The path of both suffering and enlightenment is paved with higher standards. Don't relent.
