What @theafrocentricone.bsky.social said. We've been courtside at #NYLiberty games since 2011. It's an absolute joy.

We sit near physical therapists, public servants & other non-billionaires. It's not Gucci row. We're there because we love women's hoops. Very few of us will be back next year. #wnba

Such a thrill to see a writer up on the jumbotron at Barclays. And not just any writer but one of my faves, Jenny Han! Author of The Summer I Turned Pretty and so many other corkers!
And she was sitting near Queen Latifah!

A truly magical moment!

And the #nyliberty won!

Two of my fave signs I saw today at the very rainy #nokings march in Manhattan. It was HUGE.

The adaptation of the Leviathan trilogy by @scottwesterfeld.bsky.social lands on Netflix in early July. I've seen the first episode and it was incredible. Set your reminder!

Not only did the right wing major parties lose but their leader lost his seat. So happy!

Aussies of my generation will understand this one. (Would love to know who did this. And so fast. Thank you!)

It does. Once you've done a search for say "leather pants" hit the filter button, under location you can tell it to only search for Australia.

This safe injection clinic is in my neighbourhood in Sydney. It provides not only clean needles but free healthcare. It's massively reduced overdoses and other bad health outcomes of being addicted.

The folks who use it cause zero problems for those of us who live & work here.

Rainbow lorikeets are as common as pigeons throughout much of Oz.
They are very happy making.
