At least here on Bluesky, we can safely remind the fact that the person who you are writing to is an *actual human being* - with dreams, opinions, flaws, and hopes.

So act accordingly. Be kind. Be human.

Don't write anything you wouldn't be able to say to someone's face in the real world.

Probably the most iconic space photo of all time: Pillars of Creation!

The dust and gas in the pillars is seared by the intense radiation from young stars and eroded by strong winds from massive nearby stars.

Though it looks small, it is ~5 light years tall.

That is ~29 trillion freedom units.

Bluesky hitting 20M already is much BIGGER than you might think.

Take this stat, for example: Last April, X, which was created in 2006 as Twitter, had a reported 611 million global users.

After 18 YEARS!

Oh and also: The number of X users dropped to 588 million in September.

Hehe.

I don’t really share much on social media platforms, but I think #Bluesky deserves more interactions and I will share my unseen photos. Hope you all enjoy them.

The human brain is up to three times larger in volume than the brains of chimpanzees, gorillas and many extinct human relatives.
