Just sent a message to a few people to join #Bluesky and then I deleted the app of the other place. I don’t need it. I am happy here. Phew! #Blueskymigration

Here is my Starter Cats pack! It's a collection of real people (non-bot, non-image scraper) accounts that post mostly cat content. I just updated it to put the requirements in the description so you can check before nominating someone. 🥰 go.bsky.app/J8yqxnN

With #StormBert affecting many across the UK, caused by climate change, it's time for #UBI.

Universal basic income for a just transition
Universal basic income has arguably never been a more important tool. People and societies need assistance with the transition to Net Zero.

I have been collecting pictures from various sources for my PhD proposal about companion animals and changing interior spaces. This one caught my eye - but what is she looking at? Any thoughts? #historian #history #puzzle #artefact #art

The Church in Stanbury was inspired by Haworth Rector, Rev. Patrick Brontë, built as a Sunday School by his future son-in-law Rev. Arthur Bell Nicholls and opened in 1848. It is thought that Charlotte Brontë may also have taught intermittently at the school. It was renamed in 1998 as St. Gabriel’s

Been living with the consequences on #hemiplegicmigraine and #dysautonomia the last ten days and yesterday I couldn’t walk. I would love to raise more awareness of these conditions on Bluesky and hope the connected welfare organisations join #chronicillnessawareness #chronicillness
