Update: I’m 38.

Nikki Jayne @nikkijayne.bsky.social · Oct 13

I have a few new followers so hello!

I’m Nikki, 37, British (and slightly salty about it).

My interests include crochet and embroidery, reading (mainly sci-fi), socialising, and learning. I’m both an extrovert and a nerd.

I can be a *bit* of an oversharer so I apologise in advance for that.

Predictive Stupidity @onemoney.bsky.social · 3h

Spending hundreds of millions of $, generated by musicians, to platform the weaponized far-right stupidity of Joe Rogan should have been enough to end Spotify long ago.

I quit when Rogan platformed an AIDS denialist. Moved to Apple.

I actually don’t think I’m that bad but I do get asked if I’m paying attention A LOT…

I think I’m a bit like an overexcitable puppy.
