Always looking for conversation. Checking for narratives re: polarisation, propaganda, disinfo at BOOM FactCheck, writing mediabuddhi.substack.com | Professional journalist, Bangalorean Delhiwala in London. A legal alien kinda like Englishman in New York.
Same same but slightly different here :) in that I'm trying to only follow people who have at least one of the following two:
1) a photo (which I get many ppl don't want to provide)
2) some signs that they're hooman

Is that what this is? 😊 I suppose it is!

As a start for me as well, saying hello to folks I do know exist but don't know personally @nilanjanaroy.bsky.social and @dalitdiva.bsky.social

Also saying hello to people I didn't know existed 24 hours ago such as ‪@lucidillusions.in and @somabasu.com

Hellos all round!

As a start, I'm introducing some people I know but who may not know each other. For example, I'm pretty sure @zigzackly.bsky.social and @jackerhack.ing know each other but do you folks know @josephjohn000.bsky.social and @anuradhabhasin.bsky.social @sreenet.bsky.social?
Maybe you do!

Lol. Reminds me of this Frank Zappa song, Don't Eat The Yellow Snow, which I suppose is unsanitary because of animal urine.

The one ordinary thing I did was rinse out the big bag garbage bin with hot soap water. Twice. It felt nice. Proof that I was being responsible! 😊

Thank you! I'm intrigued by the number of starter packs but obviously not surprised! 😊

This is a wonderful resource, thank you very much :)

Lovely to read this little bit of memory! And hello back! It also seems like this is the first thread I've read on blue sky.

Intriguing. I might give it a spin!

Telugu, which I don't understand at all, but can quite bizarrely read because it is so similar to the Kannada script.

Lol.

I'm kinda shocked that I'm so comfortable with that familiar feeling about England in Limited Overs Cricket...it's as if 2019 never existed!
