Hi Bluesky, do I know anyone on here who is a literary agent for children's books?

Why does it feel like we could write a new version of We Didn't Start The Fire every week now ๐Ÿ˜ข

PSA friends: if you're trying to make blue frosting with natural food dye, don't use blueberries. It'll turn pink ๐Ÿคช I was not prepared for this.

My only pair of trendy baggy jeans accidentally made their way into the dryer and now they are skinny jeans and I fear this is so millennial of me.

I had so much fun on TikTok during the pandemic. Feeling nostalgic. Here's one of the first baking videos I posted ๐Ÿ˜‚

I'm restarting my blog! After an unintentional four year blogging hiatus, I'm restarting my blog. Will this last 1 week? 1 month? 1 year? Only time will tell.

I went with personal blog! sararobinson.dev/2025/01/05/r...

I'm thinking about blogging again (I know, such an original idea to have in January ๐Ÿ™„).

Should I revive the blog I was using on my personal site which hasn't been updated in 4+ years or start a Substack? Or both?! I'm hoping to write about both tech and non-tech topics.

To the billions of working moms who came before me, you are superheroes. This is hard.

Is it possible to become someone who likes cooking or am I forever destined to be someone who seeks out a 5+ hour baking recipe and balks at the thought of anything that takes longer than 20 minutes to cook?

From what I've read this is only just starting to be studied ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Sharing in case it helps someone else.

I decided to start weaning because it was getting to be too much, only to discover that weaning can temporarily affect your mental health. Can't win! ๐Ÿคช

This is because the hormones your body uses to produce milk are also associated with mood boosting.

I'm so grateful I've been able to breastfeed and also damn, it's one of the hardest things I've ever done.

Before I started I naively thought "how hard could it be?"

These are great, thank you! I've seen 3blue1brown but haven't read the others.

Hi Bluesky! I'm catching up on all things AI that happened while I've been on maternity leave. What are your favorite podcasts, videos, blogs, papers, etc. from the past few months?

Every time I open Twitter it feels like the internet equivalent of driving by a house with a giant lawn sign for that guy.

Excited to see the momentum on Bluesky! Maybe I'll post more.

This industry is wild. We left an app for sharing your thoughts in a few characters to join a different exclusive invite-only app to share your thoughts in a few characters started by the same guy who started the original app.

You truly couldn't make this stuff up ๐Ÿ˜…

I've listened to nothing but Taylor since the Eras Tour but she is nowhere to be found in my Daily Mixes 1-6. Spotify low key trying to have a music intervention with me over here.

Is the Venn diagram of Swifties and people on this app 2 circles? Guess I'll find out ๐Ÿ˜…

I've been in a full time engineering role for over a year now and something that has surprised me is that it's as much about *aligning* and *building consensus* as it is writing code.

It's not bad, just different from my expectation.
