KOSA and SAVE must not Pass!
The angry part of Bluesky remembered KOSA (now under the Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act, or H.R. 7757) exists but rather yell at you I'll say:
If you have REALLY bad anxiety (like me!), you can call your reps after hours! Voicemail counts! The site 5Calls give you a script to read off of:
If KOSA passes it will fundamentally change how we are able to interact and use the Internet.
KOSA must not pass.

What if the Greek god Hermes fell in love with a werewolf but didn't know it and thought the werewolf died (because they both thought the other was human) but then they ran into each other 150 years later in a tiny town in Northern Vermont, giving them both a second chance at love?
Managed to get over 650 words in a single WIP today, and am still feeling a high from that! #NaNoMyWay
All the best pets are part-time criminals I swear down. Only part because they sleep
I want to promote my book more on this site, but I have two hurdles.
1. I need an actual strategy.
2. I don't to annoy anyone/come off as a shill.
The first issue can be solved with research. I'm not sure about the second one. π

The whole entire story is actually way crazier than that, but yeah!!! Mind you I was 15 at the time
My appendix was burst inside of me for a few days before anyone realized it. I was fifteen. I had no symptoms (no fever, etc.) except a minor little pain in my abdomen. Doctors said it was because my appendix was actually in the WRONG area of my body, which is also probably why I'm still alive, so
You know, didn't feel "it" today (the dogs had a morning routine disruption and stressed me out). But I remembered #NaNoMyWay here on Bluesky, and got so hyperfocused once I started writing that I can barely tear myself away to go to sleep. Sometimes it's the little things!
So so so so so true!! Thank you!
Congratulations, you're a winner baby! π
Wait WHAAAAAAAT π Oh thank you so very much! <3 I so hope you enjoy it!
Thank you so so much! I only got 851 words yesterday (March 2nd) but the vast majority of it was spent on a story placed in a world I wish I could be in for a lot longer!!
This just reminded me to add "back up to external hard drives" today on my list of things to do!!!
Make sure you save your work often & send back-ups to yourself; e-mail is a great way, but laptops are prepped with the restore feature too.
My new laptop wasn't set-up to restore & I started a new WIP
My recall is good so I should be fine but pls check that!

Just polished up and submitted my short story for this romantasy challenge! I don't think I've actually ever done romantasy before, but this helped me cultivate something I never would have otherwise on my own
Now would be a good time for anyone who wants to learn about recent Iranian history to read this. It is well worth your time and money (I am sure your local library has it if you donβt want to purchase it).
Wrote about 1,925 words yesterday, on more than one project. It felt so good to actually be able to devote some time, also, to putting down new ideas that I had just for me! #NaNoMyWay
This is also helpful since in Feb, I was struggling to be able to even write 1k in a day
β€οΈ
Basically, I'm -25,187 words in the deficit, but I know that I can get that up!!
Gonna participate in #NaNoMyWay started by @csmallswright.bsky.social this month
February was so freaking hard on my word count, cause I let a lot of stuff from life drag me down. My goal (for me!) is to reduce the amount Track Bear says I'm behind on my versus par for my yearly goal #writersky
Can't believe what's happening now
It's hard to write, but the world will seek & need our words
Doing a writing sprint leading up to #NaNoMyWay at midnight. You're welcome to start early 2. We need an escape, though it's hard 2 write. I'm typing with 1 hand & squinting at headlines with the other
Hi there! I am a transgender author with a few different books available; a lot of folks have really liked my short story collection so far! books2read.com/u/mdJj1O
As far as recommending other authors, my trans & nonbinary writers starter pack has many: bsky.app/starter-pack...
The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.
Last week, Daisy had to make a swift visit to the ER vet. Well, yesterday, our GSD suddenly had an ear flopping after 8 years of them being erect... Anyway, she will be okay its just the ear might never stand again. She is totally amiss
Also, Bridgette made friends with the vet
Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isnβt living in a bubble. I donβt need to know whatβs going on at X. I wonβt be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.
I've (3k+ YO M satyr) been in love with my tenant (52 YO F human) for a while. She just found out I'm not human. The sex is amazing. Even better is hanging out with her, watching movies and having fun. But she says only wants to be FWB. AITA if I tell her I'm in love? #A #F #R #LGBTQ #P #UnhingedPit
To all the "if you have a platform you have an obligation to use it" and "silence is violence" cis folks, plenty of y'all are being very quiet right now about what is happening to trans people
