Yesterday seemed like a great day for a 5-hr drive during which we'd have little cell service. 😉 And now we are IN THE MOUNTAINS! I'm trying hard to ignore the mess we're in and to find joy in life. That might seem selfish, but I'm still feeling so powerless. So, I'm going to be selfish for a while.

There are a bunch for you too, Jamie. I'm going to report all the fake ones, but so far that doesn't seem to be having any effect.

As much as I am loving Bluesky, celebrity impersonation accounts are a problem. I found multiple fake accounts for Jon Cryer when I was searching for him, and I reported all the fake ones and they are still active. 😥 I hope they deal with this issue soon.

I can't help but wonder why Rep. Nancy Mace is so obsessed with other people's genitals. Is she a pervert? Not sure I want to be in the same bathroom as her.

I also wonder how she manages to survive long flights, when she might have to use an airplane bathroom that men have used. OH THE HORROR! 😱

Well, that's one sex offender down. Now we just have to wait and see who is next on the Orange-Buffoon-Elect's list of sex offenders to nominate for his "cabinet" (aka junk drawer), as he continues filling his swamp. Watch out...we're all gonna get splashed with the slime!

Trump promised to "drain the swamp". HA! Instead of draining it, he is filling it with the worst creatures imaginable. The stench is overpowering. And we're all going to get splattered with their slime.

Just another typical Trump Tantrum. Somebody toss him some baby wipes before he stinks up the room any worse.

I'm loving it too, but there's a serious problem with fake celeb accounts. Without a blue-check system, the only way to tell is by looking at the number of followers. The real ones have many thousands, the fakes only a few hundred or less. But I see many people falling for the fake ones. Example:

So how do we deal with all the fake celebrity accounts over here? No blue checks, no way to tell for sure who is real. Is there anything in the works? @moderation.bsky.app

Here's a tip: check the number of followers - the real celeb will likely already have thousands. But this is not sustainable.

After *that awful day*, I realized I needed a break from being a political junkie. I can't steep myself in all the horrors that we know are coming. I need to find joy. Here's what I'm doing:

Reading positive blogs instead of news
Exercising more
Learning to make cheese

So what are you all doing?
