Straddling Bluesky and that toxic hellscape normies still call Twitter.

Love beeswax candles,hydroponic gardening,soap making, Springsteen, H.I. McDunnough, & snark. Hate traitors & conspiracy theories (and DMs).
@support.bsky.team Why can't I reply to any posts?? My second attempt to reply to somebody also did not post. What is going on? I took this screen shot before I hit Reply just now.

Don't EVER give somebody a paperwhite bulb for the holidays. I recently bought one in a vase from Trader Joe's which is now in full bloom. I have spent the past few days trying to figure out where a cat must of pooped bc the smell has been ATROCIOUS! Just realized it's that damn flower!🤢

I haven't been on social media all that much lately. Just checked in, and as suspected the world, especially the U.S., is still a raging dumpster 🔥 Whelp, back to making candles 🕯

The best thing about Facebook has always been the FB memories, like this picture I posted of our twinfants 15 years ago ❄️👶💕

Enjoying a child free weekend at The Omni in Charlottesville. We ordered Old Fashions in honor of my mother-in-law. Drinks, dinner, and shopping (without moody teens). Loving the start to this weekend so far! 🥃

I'm not much a tea drinker, but I do love infusing herbs/flowers in oils to make salves and lip balms. It's great to see that kind of stuff in your book 🙂One of my faves is dandelion salve. I tell ppl all the time how EASY it is to make! But my fam/friends just prefer I give them what I make, LOL.

Theo is excited that I took the day off so that I can clean and prep for our extended family's Thanksgiving dinner. Much of the cleaning will involve chasing tufts of his fluffy fur 😺

I eat a fair amount of tomatoes, but rarely buy them at the store bc they taste like crap 🙂 It's surprisingly easy to grow tomatoes hydroponically in a bucket. And cherry tomatoes can be grown in a Folgers can!

It's that time of year where I take over half the kitchen island to make beeswax candles for Christmas gifts 🕯I just fussed at my son for having the audacity to walk by the island...bc the liquid wax was jiggling too much 🙃 They'll hopefully forgive me for being so uptight by Christmas 🎄

Well now I'm confused. I just "pinned" my post above. I don't see a red pin under it. But I see the option to unpin it. So what makes the red pin icon display in replies?
It's entirely possible I just don't know how some features on Bluesky work 🤣
