I'm gonna offer a slightly different take:

It's okay if you need to freak out a little. Breathe into a paper bag. Pace the floors and wring your hands. You are not weak for being scared. You are not small for being worried. You are still brave even if you're afraid.

We will make it through this.

We're at a moment in the history of the planet where anything can happen.

That anything includes great achievements.

Very few will likely happen tomorrow.

But we will build, we will win the world that we deserve.

It's our only option. ❤️🪶

There are a lot of words here, but read them. This is truth. @gaerin.bsky.social
This is very well said. Trolls need bridges to live under. Don’t build ones to them
finally a reasonable take

Can someone explain to me how putting a rainbow in a classroom is “indoctrination,” but the Ten Commandments isn’t?

I’m headed to the kitchen to create two magical soups. A NE Clam Chowder and a Vegan Mushroom soup. This system needs to deliver the goods because there is a direct correlation between cooking a good soup and some serious weather. The phrase “cooking up a storm” didn’t come from nowhere. #PNWWX

I open my Bluesky feed and it is full of really cool people saying really smart things and being really passionate about really interesting stuff.

I like this version of social media, and the world.

Thanks, folks.

Agreed… no way.
I love y'all but I am never calling these posts "skeets."

The term “skeets” really doesn’t work for me… what do butterflies do?

The American public and the Senate Judiciary Committee deserve to see the Matt Gaetz report.
