4. Call your reps in Congress every single day. 202-224-3121. 5 min. Every day. Make a habit of it. Call @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and let them know they are failing the American people. We are begging for a party to vote for and Dems refuse to give it to us.

An update on the TikTok situation from our monitoring on Reddit. Now you get TOS'ed for saying negative comments about meta and Zuckerberg, left-wing politics get flagged as misinformation, and you can't tag #fucktrump #fuckelon or #fuckmeta but you CAN tag #fuckbiden and #fuckkamala

As 2025 begins, so does the year’s first full moon, which also marks the last of four consecutive supermoons, according to NASA. Known as the “wolf moon,” it gets its name from the idea that wolves howl during January’s long, cold nights.

Two new litters of baby bunnies around here. Both does are doing great. We actually evened out the numbers because Cheesecake seems to make a ton of milk and she had the smaller litter. Her babies always look fit to bursting!

I think he needs her to stay in the house. They can't afford to lose another seat and she's been acting as the whip.

Baby bunny streeeeetch.

My ex was narcoleptic and at the time they would give him handfuls of meth and the pharmacy didn't check ID at pickup. He had to be on that before they would give him non addictive medication with no street value that works so much better. If it was about healthcare they wouldn't do this crap.

Loads! He was originally a short story author. Four Past Midnight, Night Shift and Hearts in Atlantis are all collections I've enjoyed. Hearts in Atlantis has tie ins to The Dark Tower series but isn't an official part of it.

Dogs are welcome too. I don't discriminate.

I haven't read that one, I'll have to look it up. I honestly love his short stories and sometimes I prefer them; it makes him be more concise in descriptions. I hope you enjoy them.

AUTISM DANCING TO A DIFFERENT BEAT

If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution.

Which book?! I used to love reading his stuff.

So there might be a decided lack of cats on Bluesky. So respond with a cat picture, yours or someone else's. That way we can have cats and existential dread!

I have to agree that it is so important for our health. I got myself into burnout by trying to mask through it. I ended up language and skill regression that I'm still trying to recover from.

I am at 144 books read for this year! I just finished re-reading Trapped by Kevin Hearne on my Iron Druid re-read. I'm also reading The Chaos Machine by Max Fisher.

I'm taking guesses on how many books I'll finish before 2025. I'm also taking suggestions on books I need to read!

Talk about taking liberties. Elon only wishes he had guns like that. He's a floppy white bread boy who only looks at workout equipment.

YouTube video by Parkrose Permaculture Why are Tr*mpers mad that folks are setting boundaries? A Compilation.

@parkroseperma.bsky.social made this excellent video about post election boundaries and why a lot of us aren't feeling like giving time and access to people who voted against our interests.

I live on land that belongs to the dxʷsəq̓ʷəbš (Suquamish). It is good to take a moment and reflect, as white people, on our role as colonizers and the atrocities left in our wake. It makes me feel small and powerless, but it also makes me want to do better and give back more than I take.

Phew! It's been a long morning of cooking and baking. Now comes the car ride and then to enjoy the fruits of our labors with family. May you all get to enjoy a moment of respite and give gratitude!

I haven't tried in forever, but I managed as a kid. I always prefered walking though.

I wonder if I like operas because they are musicals with subtitles?

Oooh! Those are probably my two favorite also. The relationships in both are 😍 Not to mention the story is great too.

What's your favorite Fire Emblem game?

Oooh.. I might need to load up Stardew again and check out the new stuff!

Yeah. I saw this and thought you myself how are those COVID changes in regulations for meat processing plants working out now? You know the ones where we said they could do their own inspections? The ones we never changed back...

Fun! Where do you like to get your stickers from?

Ok, one more.. (sorry not sorry) @drjensbeautylab.bsky.social just joined Blue Sky, so blow her up with your follows if you like: sassy skin care mom explains, small batch skin care, house pig pics, or how to make your own herbals for skin care. Her products are the only ones that touch my face.
