Hey, if you follow me, I don’t wanna do a jump scare, so I’ll tell you off the bat that I’m very much NOT a fan of using our tax $$$ to fund a genocide. Generally don’t like genocides full stop. Also VERY into letting trans humans live full lives w access to hormones & gender-affirming care. 🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️

Happy Anniversary! I don't wanna brag, but I WAS THERE! 😂

Abby @proactivebusybody.bsky.social · 3d

Absolutely.

I don't really care about the jewel heist at The Louvre, but this interview with a former jewel thief is worth a watch.

Hey, if you are a human in the world with a job, consider looking up your local food bank and making a donation of money, food, or a shift.

Wishing for a ballroom is such a dumb little fantasy.

It seems there is no bottom. I keep thinking we are there. And they keep finding new ways to go lower. The White House Bulldozer has officially entered my dreams as a nightmare. It's the perfect metaphor.

Abby @proactivebusybody.bsky.social · 3d

The videos of the bulldozer at The White House are hitting me viscerally. I'm not usually a lie in bed at night ruminating person, but I couldn't get those images out of my head. It's the ultimate metaphor, and it feels unreal. It isn't his house to "renovate" to his liking.

Why are Halloween decorations now JUST SKELETONS?!

This looks EXACTLY like the lake where my Dad spent his retirement. (My mom lives here now.)

A man in his 70s (my father) in a small motorboat smoking a cigarette on a lake in front of tree-covered mountains in Georgia during the fall.

Took this photo of a #Glow Gnome 20 years ago when I was walking home from the Chinese Lantern Festival at Jamaica Pond in Jamaica Plain, Boston. Isn't he cute? #BlueSkyArtShow

Who's listening to Geese and Cameron Winters as much as me?

Abby @proactivebusybody.bsky.social · 17d

I don’t think TikTok did it. It was just some guys.

Abby @proactivebusybody.bsky.social · 17d

Maybe. I dunno. I’m usually sending them to friends who are very interested in the topic I’m sharing about. But it’s a nice tool. I like it. I’m going to be using it. And if someone on here sees that it exists and uses it, then that’s cool.

Abby @proactivebusybody.bsky.social · 17d

Burden? S - E - E. Just saying that sometimes they really want to see, but they don't want to download & participate in yet another very addictive platform. Honestly, I try and add the S-E-E myself before I send it, but then I sort of need to remember which friends have TikTok and which ones don't.

Abby @proactivebusybody.bsky.social · 17d

If someone sends you a TikTok, but you don't have an account on TikTok, add "see" just before the URL, and you'll be able to view it. That way, your friend doesn't have to download the whole video and then text it to you. See? TikTok people and non-TikTok people can get along. 🕉️🧘

Tonight at Neko Case at DPAC, she introduced a song thusly, “This next song is about a spider. I just want to convince your that spiders are nice. Kumbaya for the spiders. No hate for the eight.”
