I like to share IG posts showing insanely cute puppers to my wife, who almost invariably asks, "and who is THIS cutie?" as if I am on 1st name basis w/ every dog on Earth, but b/c I know so many dogs in real life by name, she probably thinks I know their names too, so I just make names up for them

Today I deleted my Threads account & uninstalled the app. Woeful algorithm, almost no engagement & its primary purpose seems to be flooding my follower list with pr0nbots (5-9 follows per day) that cannot be blocked, reported, or removed from the follower list w/o actually going into their profiles.

A quick "howdy" to new Bluesky followers. Nonprofit analyst by day, musician/songwriter/tech nerd all other times. I will be more actively crossposting to here so as not to deprive anyone not still in the Metaverse or X-periencing X-ile. Cheers!

Moar drummer jokes:
What's the difference between a drummer and a charging bull? The bull knows when to stop.
Johnny said to his mom, "Mommy, I want to be a drummer when I grow up." His mom says, "Johnny, you know you can't do both."
What did the drummer name his two daughters? Anna One, Anna Two.

I'm sensing a theme here...
How do you tell if the stage is level?
The drummer is drooling from both sides of his mouth.
How can you tell a drummer's at the door?
The knocking speeds up.
What do you call a drummer that breaks up with his girlfriend?
Homeless.

Enjoying Bluesky so far, but I really wish I could find my friends more easily - import contacts or a friends list from another app. Any ideas from more experienced users?
