Currently in my Wintering Season. Religion and politics have cost me community. I'm an avid reader, a mostly unpublished writer, a loose-leaf tea/gong fu cha aficionado, American liberal ("because Jesus"). Oh. And a potty-mouth -especially since 11/5/2024.
I was happy to discover this platform several months ago but abandoned it. (My spirit was breaking a little more every day and I had to limit my angst intake.) I now realize what others seem to know intuitively: the way through this anger and anxiety and soul-shocking ordeal is with community.

I will never understand the sell-out.

I'm easily sixth-generation American. Probably more. Yet I don't feel American anymore. Every day, I'm screaming on the inside and it's only been a week. 😭

My son lives in Sweden and I'm in the US. Paper star lanterns in windows at Yul is a Swedish tradition, so I hang one to shorten the miles between us.

According to PEN America's most recent report, “Nineteen Minutes” by @jodipicoult.bsky.social—a book about a school shooting—is now the most banned book in American schools.
Meanwhile, active shooter drills have expanded to schools in 40 states.

Creating your own Bluesky Custom feed (with muted words)
Tip: If you want to look for multiple words, combine them in 1 block and use | ("pipe") in between to make your feed faster. For example: Putting in "pro-hero|deku|mha" in one block will look for "pro-hero" or "deku" or "mha". =========================== Tutorial on how to create your own custom feed from the beginning. Muted words are not built-in yet, but you can put them in your own custom feed!

Once your list is created, you have to add them to your list from *their* page, not their posts, like I said before.

Create a List. Mine is called A-Team. Then, add the people who don't post political stuff to the list. You can add them right from their posts, as you see them... and pin it to the top of your Home (House) page. It took time to have enough people in the list to make it my home feed that I stay in.

What can you do now that will be a blessing to others regardless of what happens in Washington over the next four years? How can you, to borrow the words of W. H. Auden, “love your crooked neighbor / With your crooked heart”?
If Donald Trump’s victory has you worried about the vulnerable, you can do something more—and better—than posting about it.
