It's the Spring Equinox - the first astronomical day of spring! ☀️

Longer days. Lighter evenings.

Sunshine warm on your skin, birds singing, blossom in the branches.

I am working out of a public library and there are a good number of people who seem to be on hard times using the facilities for various reasons like job searching, entertainment, charging peripherals, using the bathroom, etc., and I am struck by how important it is that libraries continue to exist

You know where you can go and not worry about breaking the economic blackout today?

Your local library! All those books and you won’t spend a penny!

Library haul! Seems like a good time to encourage going to your library so I will start doing library hauls & reviews. I’ve been obsessed with libraries forever. I love them! #booksky #library #libraryhaul #librarybook

Buried in the flurry of Executive Orders last night is one that halts all funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

Yes, the law that Republicans and Democrats came together to pass that fixes our roads, modernizes old bridges and makes drinking water safer.

Cat of the day: I’m dog-sitting again so bonus doggo content. This is Holly, a springer poodle mix. She’s never been Dog of the Week yet so now is her chance.

Just 2 days to go until the #BigGardenBirdwatch kicks off!

Bold Blue Tits ranked 2nd in last year's results... could they take the top spot this time? 💙

Ummm what?? I have a new page on TT where I talk about content creation and I did a post about coming up with a name for the time TT was down, and it got slapped with this almost immediately! I appealed so we shall see. But wow. #tiktokban #tiktokisback #communityguidelines

Ok I have a whole section of my little Slowestuff universe that is product reviews. So I can start posting videos on here now? Can I put them in a separate grouping or something? Or should I do a second acct for those videos? Help me #bluesky #blueskiers

In January 2021, during the third national lockdown, I pulled into this deserted pub car park to turn the van round and found a lamppost and a bin engaged in lively conversation while they thought no one was looking. Incredible.

Losing #booktok is awful. It will take time to rebuild a community like the one that was there.
I really think #booksky can be a great community for everyone though, and I hope everyone checking it out dives in and starts conversations. It’s a welcoming place.
Let’s be friends!

Content creators. What editing app are you using? I loved CapCut but that is currently disabled now due to the ban. Would love recommendations ✨

Small Mercies was my top read from last year and I don’t hear anyone talking about it. It is way more than a crime drama! I absolutely loved it. #smallmercies #booksky #bookrec #top10

WHAT ARE YOU USING TO EDIT VIDEOS? CapCut is also dark and I LOVED editing my videos on there. Yikes! I don’t want to edit in app anywhere because it always sucks. I need a good editing app so what do you guys use/like? #capcut #capcutban #videoediting

I think I am having a trauma response from TT going dark and just over posting here 🤣😢🤣 #ttban #overposting

Are you guys on #rednote? I love it there. Entertaining, sweet and eye opening.

I think I am going to get back into my #junkjournaling. Weirdly it is one area of my life that I feel perfectionist vibes and I don’t like it! I just need to happily put paper on paper and not worry if it isn’t gorgeous. #journaling #scrapbook

So for content creators, besides moving to Bluesky, where are you focusing your efforts now that TikTok is dark? The Flip app seems to be having some growing pains. I think I will focus on Amazon? Not sure. #contentcreators #tiktokshop #tiktokban

If you are new here following the TikTok ban, welcome! You are definitely going to want to follow @mcuban.bsky.social. He is super active and candid on here. #tiktikban #TTban #booksky
