I hate MSNBC and CNN, but if I turned on Fox my TV would catch on fire AND let me be clear, I am no longer "ethnic friendly."


Not much of a bio.

Hi, can you please point me to the directions for customizing my avatar and banner. I am using artwork from a website and I cannot figure out what the limits are regarding the avatar and banner. Thank you.

@annemuntean.bsky.social Anne, thank you for the posts you make. I have been avoiding the news because all I have right now are MSNBC, CNN, and the major networks' news programs. I simply cannot watch them anymore and the crazy thing is I obtained a degree in R-TV because of Cronkite.

Dear Zuckerberg, Musk, Witty, Bezos - this is not a threat, just a word to the wise - algorithms may have gotten Thompson what some would call his just deserves & it may be they are more of a threat to folks like yourselves than they are to the average person. Beware, the same might be true for AI.

@jchmcl09.bsky.social Hello Jody. It is good to see you here. I have missed the conversations we all had in X but not so much that I wanted to allow X legal use of all my content contribution. Enjoy your week and enjoy the blue skies.

I think he will not be confirmed by the Senate and if he is, I expect investigations into his years from 2016 to 2024.

@royandtanyaorganic.bsky.social I need some advice. I am trying to figure out a way to secure my small lathe to a slide that will allow me to move the lathe back out of the way when not in use and back in place and secure when I want to use it. I am trying to save as much space as possible.

@support.bsky.team Can you please tell me what this means?

Thank you.

@hec-2.bsky.social Hello Harold, welcome to civility. Now, if I can find a way to bring Brookhisershire to Blue Sky, my life will be somewhat more grand.

I'm trying to stay away from politics, but please, can someone help me with this. If Trump was so messed up during his first term that he was impeached twice & Article 25 was being considered by members of his own party, how does anyone think he might be better off when he is 4 years more senile?

I'm convinced MSNBC & most of its talent are gravely compromised. I think they wanted Trump to win because he's a ratings gold mine for them. Over the past 9 years, it feels like they've spent most of their air time talking about him. How many billions have they earned talking about Trump?

@royandtanyaorganic.bsky.social Hey, I watched more of Weedy's youtube videos and they were very well done, entertaining and informing. Thank you for making me aware of them. We need to get him onto BlueSkies.

Tomorrow night, I go for my first wood-turning meeting. It is called Windy City Woodturners and I am so excited. I don't even own a lathe yet but that will come this year or very early next year as a gift from my family.

@keithdecent.bsky.social It is pretty damn cool. Can you figure out how to make sculptures with it?

Comfrey tea? Does anyone in our feed have experience with comfrey tea? I need some advice since this is my first year with it. Thank you.

I found this on FB Marketplace. As an old Dutchman told me one time, when I was talking something up, "Sir, we have a saying here in The Netherlands, "Every man thinks his duck is a swan."

@eepy.bsky.social Why is this like icon on some of the gardening posts? Should I have it or is it an earned badge? I want to earn a badge. I am old, old people need badges. 🌱

@royandtanyaorganic.bsky.social Check this out. I am growing a small patch of raspberries and I planted nasturtium plants with the berry plants because the berries provide shade for the nasturtiums. The nasturtiums taste like mustard greens and people eat the leaves and flowers in their salads.

I live in the Midwest in a relatively small town. I think Uber has finally made it here.

I'm a veteran. Two of my brothers were also veterans. One of my brothers lost his life in 1964 when the P2 aircraft on which he was a crewmember crashed into a mountain in Alaska while spying on Soviet subs. My family has been here since 1620 and I am grateful I got to serve this wonderful country.

Does anyone have plans on how to build a vanity base? Thank you.

I am not positive I like Blue Sky. It is a bit like shouting into an empty can and then expecting to hear someone else's voice come back.
November 8, 2024 at 4:51 PM
Do we have # comments here? If so, I want to start a movement for #boycottMAGAmerchants I am dropping Prime, and will refuse to buy products or services from anyone who is a Trump supporter. How do we start such a movement on Blue Sky?

Does anyone have a clear idea of what is going to happen to control of the House?
