for anyone new to bluesky or just struggling to make their timeline better, here’s my tip:
follow a bunch of artists that you like and whenever they repost cool art, follow that artist too
soon your timeline will be a steady stream of wonderful art interspersed with news updates on the horrors

Rick Steves is really one of the absolute best humans. I don't know how many people outside of Seattle know him but he's a pillar of the community in a way other rich people in the area just aren't.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Oh my God, the Seahawks are just getting pushed around. Rams have Darnold so dead to rights they're literally just having people sitting where he's going to pass it.
That Rasheed TD felt amazing though! #SeahawksvsRams

Love is walking into an indie record shop and asking them "Do you have Nickelback's Silver Side Up?" Indie rep is in shambles, but my wife has her CD.

I'm trying to figure out what anime haircut I have. My pick is Ashita no Joe but I'm not sure.

Everytime I see someone saying they're gonna be "AI First" or "A modern AI [blank]" it never comes with an actual feature tied to it.
They're all announcing this stuff to get investors on board with no actual product ideas. Any AI implementation will end up being haphazard and detrimental.

Jay is good people. Help them out if you can.
Update: My MRI is tomorrow. They're gonna see how the tumors are impacting my right ovary & how we're gonna go about tackling them during surgery.
If you can help or share, I'd appreciate it! Thank you to folks that already contributed 🫂

I hate to put myself on blast (we hates it...), but I'm having major surgery on Dec 23 & will be out of work with no paid leave. Support with rent, groceries, or recovery costs would mean so much!

Why the hell is Seattle playing so soft in coverage? This is embarrassing.
You’re going against a guy that’s gonna get the senior citizen discount at Denny’s after the game. He exudes an aura of Icy-Hot. He’s calling his accountant in between plays.
