I'm looking for a social media experience that allows for exploring interests without harassment from Internet trolls and bots. The other kind of trolls are cool, though (see profile pic).

Are you like me and have trouble remembering to add ALT text to images before posting?
#Bluesky pro tip: In Settings, select Accessibility, then toggle the option to require ALT text before posting.

Honestly, some ALT text is the most brilliant writing that I've seen on Bluesky (no pressure)

🧶Crochet & knitting folks, what are your recommendations for buying inexpensive yarn (for amigurumi)? I used to hit the sales at JoAnn's, but all of the stores in my area are closing. I'd rather avoid Amazon and Temu if possible. Thanks!!

Here we go again. Another round of very strong & locally damaging offshore winds is imminent across SoCal. Due to now record-dry vegetation, this will result in another "extremely critical" wildfire risk period, esp. across parts of LA & Ventura counties Mon-Tue. #CAwx #CAfire

Great summary by Lauren Sinnott of the wildfire causes in California. Simple, hits on key points, probably the one you would use to explain to those who are unfamiliar with California climate. #LAFires #ClimateControl #CaliforniaNativePlants #Firestorm www.facebook.com/groups/38417...

For all the plant people 🌱, the Altadena Seed Library is asking for seed donations, particularly California native plants. Please share and help regrow Altadena.

The group is eager to help native plants and backyards flourish again, one day soon, in the devasted community.
