Still at $0/$200 for my next month of therapy appointments and I would also really like to maybe order some grocery foods. Brains are hard and I wanna try to bake some cookies and see if it helps.

If we want to stop Elon Musk from destroying our entire society we have to make sure there is never another billionaire. They can't just be taxed out of existence, we tried that in the 60's and 70's and once they retook political power they dismantled everything
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

There's a tricky issue with the ME hashtag.
If we add #ME to the feed it's too broad & picks up LOTS of random things.

For the new twitter friends, here are two of my favorite things about bluesky:
1) if you block someone, they vanish. If they QTd you, it just says "blocked". Nuclear block stops trolls. They hate it.
