#Introduction

My other project is my lectionary blog, Lectionary Out Loud. Where I read the weekly readings from the Revised Common Lectionary and then write whatever kind of response I want.

This week I wrote about imagination, or lack of it: https://lectionaryoutloud.wordpress.com/2022/11/04/imagination/

Elsewhere I keep my various types of content separate, but maybe I'll try putting it all under the same name for a while here.

The Tuesday After Labour Day

Thirty years ago this week, I began grade seven. Grade seven was terrible. Here's the story from the last time I wrote about this here. But the short version is: that year, I was subjected to a year long bullying campaign with elements of sexual harassment. I'm writing about this again for two reasons. First, I think I've figured out a part of the reason I never told anyone.

@futurebird I have never heard that, but if I did, I would imagine a sheep knitting a sweater and assume that you're doing a lot of work for no real benefit.

@pausingplace I did not either, or looks weird from the outside, I really needed my own dashboard to get it.

It's long form, not much limitation on post length, but the primary interaction is the quote-post.

Makes for some really interesting conversation.

@pausingplace I think for replacing my favorite parts of Twitter (people chatting and thinking out loud on a variety of topics) the best thing I've picked up has been Tumblr.

@pausingplace I've got a spare invite if you want it.

@pausingplace Bluesky is OK. I haven't really found my people there. But it's...fine?

@pausingplace I am many places including Twitter still Bluesky and Threads. I dislike Threads the most.
