@inthehands yeah it’s wild, how does one optimize for this???

Within a few minutes of using bsky today I was harassed. This is my experience on EVERY platform. Every single one. When you are extolling the virtues of a particular platform, your experiences only apply to people with privilege.

(I’m fine; I am arrogant enough that it does not bother me!)

There’s no adrenaline rush like giving an impromptu talk 😂

@inthehands @quephird ahhh I love fruit but I have sensory issues for some fruits, so I understand! 💜

@inthehands @quephird for completeness, nobody here faults Danielke for posting about it or enjoying fruity hot sauce! 💜

@quephird @inthehands no, I’m not saying you should be sorry. I’m saying that Paul has some explaining to do 🫢😅😂

@quephird why they put fruit in the hot sauce though

@inthehands @quephird apparently you have to train for months by singing on a treadmill for 3 hours a day

@quephird
Step 1: become Taylor swift
Step 2: have Zuhair Murad and Robert Cavalli and Christian Louboutin make custom outfits for you

Easy!

I don’t usually post this kind of thing and I don’t want to seem self-centered, but I’m unusually proud of myself today, and I’m remarking on what boundaries, self care, and self-discovery will do for a person.

(And obviously, hair and makeup)

And now, I love 2019 me. But I didn’t back then.

@inthehands (not referring to you, btw. But it is more common than not.)

@inthehands what about those of us in the US who don’t want to read the mostly misinformed hot takes of software engineers

Saw a video of police pushing students down the stairs at Columbia. I am shaking, I’m so angry.

How cowardly do you have to be to show up in full riot gear and rough up unarmed peaceful protestors. So despicable.

Today is International Women’s Day. Women in Gaza do not have access to menstrual products and often have to share a bathroom with hundreds of others.
