I keep forgetting Bluesky exsists

Dating someone who understands or doesn’t wonder why you still acknowledge and celebrate a lost loved one’s birthday is refreshing.

Today would have been my Mimi’s 77th birthday and the man I’ve been seeing texted me wishing her a happy birthday. He knows she passed 5 years ago.

But he did anyway.

Today would have been my grandmother’s 77th birthday and while it doesn’t get easier not having her here, I am glad she doesn’t have to see the ways the US is stepping backwards.

In case you were ever wondering how Tolkien felt about Hitler, he called him a “vulgar and ignorant little cad” and a “ruddy little ignoramus.”

Elon Musk deflecting instead of I don’t know… DENOUNCING NAZI IDEALS?

Way to double down.

Elon Musk is a dirty Nazi and needs to be stripped of his platforms.

I lost a lot of connections and sources for knowledge when I lost access to my tik tok so if anyone has recs for:

- pro LGTBQIA+
- pro black liberation
- pro indigenous repatriation
- pro feminism for ALL women, black, indigenous, trans included
- pro disability rights

Please let me know.

Funny how the far right is blaming Musk’s Nazi salute on autism when every single autistic person I know would have been profusely apologizing and trying to understand why it was bad, but Elon is silent.

He meant it. It had intention, energy, and he even turned around and did it again.

Alright we’re back. I do enjoy threads, but it’s owned by Meta soooo… we’re here.

Titled: Lonely.

Sometimes I wonder if I love too loudly.
If I support too strongly.
If my desire to build connection instead breaks down to burden.

I prefer to be considered out of want instead of pity, but after all this time I think I’ll take pity if it means I’m not an after thought

Another thing about me: I make art. I want to make art. But I am also a perfectionists who quickly gets bored and quits if it’s not crazy good the first time. Here are some projects I have started, maybe completed, but ended there.

I have plans to do more with them. When? At this point who knows.

Hi, name is Amanda. I am 27. I love art, cool animal facts, many genres of music, and so much more. I think mental health is incredibly important.

I finally started doing something I always wanted: build community on the internet, via tiktok. Now that’s going away so… I’m exploring my options.

Hi bluesky. So… what makes this different from threads?
