“The first people a dictator puts in jail after a coup are the writers, the teachers, the librarians —because these people are dangerous. They have enough vocabulary to recognize injustice and to speak out loudly about it. Let us have the courage to go on being dangerous people.”

—Madeleine L’Engle

WHERE MY PEOPLE AT?? 👋

I’m new to Bluesky but it’s feeling too demure. Too mindful. Are we having fun here yet?

Any housewives fans here? Would love to discuss Beverly Hills and the NYC reunion.

Going down a rabbit hole of every Onyx Storm ending theories and did I even read the same book? Really gotta sharpen my detective skills. Or Rebecca Yarros learned her Easter egg skills from Taylor.

These are the good guys supporting DEI. Reward them with your business.

I’m not really in the mood for the Oscars or anything award related unless there is some way to tie in Steve Martin & Martin Short making it all about Selena (and Meryl if it makes Martin happy). Can we make this happen?

Is waking up to new fires burning just a new normal now 😭😭😭

Really hoping to wake up and feel like life is not an episode of Black Mirror or Handmaid’s Tale. Could really go for a Schitt’s Creek or Ted Lasso day about now.

1/20/25 - amidst avoiding all news coming out of DC, bracing myself here in LA for strong winds while fires still burn, and still unable to believe we are only in the 3rd week of this year, it felt like the time to join BlueSky! 🫠😵‍💫😬
