our guy Sean is now live-posting the Paralympics (and I'll be posting an interview with him shortly)
is he the most prominent athlete on BlueSky? I am voting yes personally
Particularly political memes. Paying fascist-friendly tech companies for genAI made from stolen works is like buying 100 MAGA hats to spell out “FUCK TRUMP.” Like, you still gave them your money. What are you even doing?
Paperbacks are the shit, just a whole world you can carry around in your pocket.

Just finished L.S. Stratton’s Sundown Girls and if I were wearing socks they’d be knocked off. That could also be the weed talking but I’m pretty sure it’s the book. Shelly’s YA debut about a once-kidnapped Black teen getting drawn into the history, and equally perilous present, of a sundown town.

Blue Monday by them is also a good one.

open.spotify.com/playlist/6UK...
It is a work in progress...
Every year I celebrate my birthday month with some sorta theme (sometimes intentionally, most of the time unintentionally). This year seems to be about dancing, so I was hoping y’all might help me build a playlist of good dancing music by sharing your favorite songs to dance to.
