I can't understand why people in #Fail Videos walk down the stairs without holding tre railing. Like, don't they know they're in a #failvideo? People always fall down those stairs.
I need help logging into my @xbox.com account and the company has no customer service. Like, at all.
They have an AI helper that is noted gives inaccurate information and cycles through the same answer circle.
I need actual help from an actual human.

When I was born I received a welcome card from Jimmy Carter. Now that he has died, I feel a certain part of America's humanity and decency has gone with him. I hope I'm wrong. I hope the world he worked toward is one we will realize one day.
I work at an institution that uses Augustine's quotes/wisdom a lot. I was excited to find one I hadn't seen before, so that's why I was verifying the source.
It's been a while since I saw an outlet that had what I can safely call journalists with ethical standards. The Times is hit or miss, and same for The Post. I'm impressed with the pedigree of PP's writers so far.
And with @propublica.org, you have a better investigative publication without the Post's compronised ethics.
I love researching for writing a novel. A thin thread can lead to many strange and wonderful spiders.

Did a search and I'm not sure whether he or Francis Bacon coined the phrase.
That's a cool quote. What does it mean?
Still holding you accountable for failing to endorse someone this election. Democracy dies in the darkness-- just some pretty words to you all, with Besos running the show.

Flood was an anthem of my teen years.
Been churning out 1500 words a day and just reached 20K in my new middle grade book draft. The bad news: I have big plot holes coming up. Don't know whether I can tap dance across this chasm, but dammit, I'm gonna try.

I'm not sure I understand what they're talking about. (Is this a post from Blue Sky or somewhere else?)
Really disappointed to see people across the social platforms I follow dunking on someone, regardless of their faults or whether they had family, being murdered.
@aimee-bender.bsky.social Glad to see you on this platform now! Hope you grow your followers on here too!

Please retweet. I am a fourth grade nyc teacher in a title I school. I would love some help with our wishlist with school supplies, books, and more. I appreciate you and any help you can provide. Thank you www.donorschoose.org/classroom/23... www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...
Eric, I am skeptical that journalism in this form still works. Powerful liars have too many willing accomplices in the media now. However, I am hoping that Murrow's vision for journalist is not dead if enough people will speak truth to power.
At this point, with Bezos owning the WAPO, the last strongholds of journalism have lost credibility. In a critical moment in America's history, WAPO made sure journalism and democracy could die in the darkness.
You owe your readers an explanation of your failings during the 2024 election. If democracy dies in the darkness, you at WAPO are all doing your part to create more shade in which for it to wither.
I'm doing 1500 words a day on the 2.0 version of the new book. If you haven't tried an accountability partner, it's so helpful to create a mental deadline and push to reach the finish.

Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends! Everyone else, happy almost-Friday!
Just read that Twitter asserts it owns all accounts and they allow people to use them. Is there any better reason to quit that dumpster fire of a social platform?
(This is regarding the Info Wars account and @theonion.com buying it.)
#kidlichat I'd also like to thank the amazing MG Narwhals! You make a feel like a real writer. And refer to me as "the poet." @shawnproctor.bsky.social @dterkwrites.bsky.social @nicoleloosmiller.com (not sure who all is on sky!) @katieferrie1.bsky.social
You are so immensely talented -- and bring a unique perspective to our group. Thank you!
Welcome! I'm so glad you've joined us here!
