I am posting, when I do, on the other one: @joelobianco.bsky.social and not here.

If you are interested, not that I am very active, you might want to 'transfer' over there.

It seems I have 2 bluesky accounts, this one here & the one I prefer @joelobianco.bsky.social I'd like to consolidate them and only use the latter, so all followers & all those I follow (+ all messages) are there. I've asked blue sky for help.

My apologies, I don't know how it happened.

My dear 7 followers, I went to Connection a brilliant art/music experience > than 650 works from 110 artists. Lume originally featured Van Gogh, Monet, Cézanne, etc but this is on Australian art and artists, incl Emily Kame Kngwarreye, Tommy Watson, Anna Pitjara and Lin Onus, & light tech wizards.

Hello cielo azzurro, eccomi qui, but as yet I have not a single follower, bot or warm blooded person. You could change this sad state of affairs.
