'And I was there!'
Hey everyone, let's play 'Scissors, Paper, Rock,' but with 'space' in mind! We could call it 'Sun, Ocean, Earth,' where 'Sun' beats 'Earth' (or 'heats' it?), and 'Earth' beats 'Ocean' by absorbing it (or 'Ocean' beats 'Earth' by enveloping it, I haven't decided). Guess which beats 'Sun'? Uh, in age?

Now that I've fled Leon's site for bluer skies, I'm sure I'll be called an #Ex-X, but personally, I'll always consider myself a #TwitterQuitter.

Introducing Jay Graber.
If you don’t know who Jay Graber is, you will. She’s the woman behind Blue Sky.

Everyone’s talking about it. In just the past week, Bluesky’s user base has exploded, more than doubling to over 16 million as people scramble for an alternative to X, Facebook, and Threads.

'[Musk will] have to convince 60 senators and House of [Reps] to make any [big recommendations]. If he wants to undo an agency [and] get rid of its entire budget, Congress is the only body [with the] authority [...] a huge stonewall for any [such] huge ambitions.' www.abc.net.au/news/2024-11...

The many moods, the many hues 'metaphorically' of me, in my distaste for that particular outmoded social media app usurped by 'Elon,' forcing this defection. Can you see I'm somewhat jaded?

Tonight's adventures (lived vicariously through this Hervey Bay RSL coaster, and what I did to it). Good times.

Anyone, here, give a damn?

If so, this is my plug for a self-published graphic novel I'm writing, illustrating and self-plugging that I think's gonna go far, 'The Impossibility of Crows' (oh, it's a 'trilogy,' look out for it): www.facebook.com/groups/29563...
