Jay, I have a recommendation of someone who absolutely fits Bluesky's ethos to a T.

Uncle Jack Kelly from Always Sunny, sitting in court with a pair of giant hands taped onto the end of his suit to make it look like his hands are bigger.

Did a bit of Orktober-ing with this old fella in need of a paint job, so slapped on the basic stuff this lunchtime.

Needs some touch ups and then finer details but you get the idea, I refuse to let an Ork be grim and dark.

Of the cool-looking live action sci-fi Disney failures of the era, The Black Hole is the one that deserved more attention and continued attempts to make it a thing tbh

Tron is just so...empty? It has so little to say?

Pretty confused by how TRON became a big-budget movie franchise. Was it a bit hit when it came out? No. Did it become a big hit on video/TV? Also no. Do people have fond nostalgic memories of it? Eh kinda but not really. Was it secretly great and critically acclaimed? No again

Happy World Mental Health Day! Make sure to spend today to tell Planet Earth that "it's okay not to be okay" and give it the telephone number to Samaritans ❤️

One of the things about this study is that a lot of baby and toddler books are written in house, by editors. So the study reveals the whiteness of editorial in kidlit even if not explicitly. But, big picture, this trend is unacceptable. I remember so many promises www.theguardian.com/books/2025/o...

‘Catastrophic decline’ in Black representation in children’s books

A report by charity Inclusive Books for Children found that of the 2,721 books surveyed, only 51 featured a Black main character, down by 21.5% since 2023

Teachers are basically viewed as future drone worker creators at the moment here, that's the ideology that has driven multiple governments and it's crushing

This is the UK but your point still stands, our govt has the same disdain for teachers as have all govts for as long as I can remember

And not even pupils either! Any number of nefarious freaks could try to crack into this, and probably quite easily
