The Skylark
@theskylark.bsky.social
Feed for Long Covid new arrivals on BlueSky. Reposts from trusted LC advocacy and supportive accounts who've migrated from other social media.

Named in honour of surreal British 1970s cartoon Noah And Nelly. "All aboard the Skylark!"
This is the point in the thread where we linked to the account of Tigress Eleanor, who sadly passed away earlier this month. We're removing that post to avoid any confusion, but it is important to us to maintain Eleanor's place here. ❤️

I do love a round number though. Don't anyone go and spoil it...

Wishing everyone a peaceful and healthy(er) 2025, both followers and the advocates who are working so hard to get information on long covid out there.

As we rest on this shortest day here in the dreich north, we wish everyone a replenishing and restorative few weeks ahead, however you spend them. Apologies in advance if reposts are a bit slower and even more erratic at times – there's a good bit of hibernation in our plans.

750 followers in 18 days!! Thank you and hi to everyone who's given the feed a follow, and we hope you're finding your way on Bluesky. (Also, if you don't need us any more and are building your connections again, we won't be offended if you unfollow us. But stay as long as you need to. 😘)

So that's the list, 43 accounts so far, which is as much as we can keep up with for now. It's not supposed to be comprehensive, but hopefully is a broad enough sample of who's here to help you get settled.

Enjoy making connections!

After only 24 hours we're closing in on 350 followers already! Hi and welcome to everyone who followed today. 👋 We posted on Twitter this morning, hopefully others there can push the word out of this connection for the long covid community. For now, it's time for a cuppa. See you tomorrow.

Long covid peeps! If you don't have many followers yet, would you like some likeminded LC people to follow you? If you would, reply in this thread with maybe a couple of words to introduce yourself, or even just a wave. We'll repost the thread regularly. Can't promise anything but let's have a go.
