Hey BlueSky. Please adjust your algorithm so that I don't constantly receive every sketch artist, cartoonist and anime creator in my feeds. Thank you.

Maga may think he’s God. We know he’s gaudy.

Los Angeles has just declared a state of emergency.

Not because of wildfires. Not because of riots. But because of an invasion by federal government troops.

We can see where this is going.

This is my typical type of heels. 👠👠

Can you guess why I love it?

And!!! Be nice, not dirty, not my thing.

Hey Bluesky. Is there some reason that every artist, sketcher, and cartoonist keeps showing up on my timeline?

I loved Michael Buble's line from the Juno Awards last night. "When they go low, we get high...er, we go high"

Someone posted the flash mob Ode to Joy today. It's been around for a while and I've seen it before. But the music and the message from the Schiller poem uplifted my spirits. It's a message of friendship, freedom and brotherhood. It's a feeling we need to keep strong in our hearts. Be of good cheer.

People are forgetting that Trump is the quintessential bully. Everyone is running around worrying about the tariffs and other pronouncements. Bullies get off on threats. It's the threat itself that gives him the rush.

Continues the fine legacy of incapable, ignorant, vile Governors for Florida. Why not?

A very Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah to all of my Bluesky friends.

Not bothered by porn sites like I am on the other places. But how is it, that any person who has ever drawn a cartoon, sketch, art, or comic book shows up on my feed all the time? Is there some hidden algorithm that says I want to follow sketchers?

Here is a generalization that covers a lot of situations. It's why people are attracted to the right wing. Slogans are easy, solutions are tough.

I want to give a shout out to what a great Jeopardy host Ken Jennings is. Yesterday a contestant guessed Three’s Company in a TV category. The correct answer was Two-And-A-Half Men. Ken said he was a half person over. Very clever, very fast.

People have to resist Trump at every step of the way. You give him an inch and he thinks he’s a ruler.

I was doing okay for a few days, not thinking about Trump and the horrors that are going to come our way. Then a one-two punch. A jab, naming fellow felon Kushner as Ambassador to France. Was just shaking it off when the knockout blow came…Kash Patel. Now I’m lying on the mat hearing counting.

Somehow I keep thinking about the movie, The Russians are Coming, The Russians are Coming.

You know, everyone is singing the praises about this site. I do like it. But I have to wonder why my feed keeps showing me soccer teams and anime art. Hey algorithm, not interested.

Next year if he’s still alive, Trump will ask for the turkeys that President Biden pardoned today, so that they could be killed.

Trump is incapable of understanding what tariffs are. No matter how many times he’s been told that tariffs hit consumers, he still believes that the originating country pays the money to the US. His ignorance runs really deep. Now Canada and Mexico will be hit for no reason.

All of a sudden, my feed is full of people listing what they “believe in”. The lists are pretty much all the same, and everyone includes “free Palestine”, whatever that actually means. Instant block. And all these UK soccer followers. Not interested. Where have they all come from?

If you politick from the pulpit, you should pay taxes.
Hello. This is your friendly reminder to tax the churches.

I’m new to Bluesky and liking it. I’m calling for thunder and lightning out of the clear skies. I know I’ll be seeing that here.
