You don’t need a traumatic or tragic story to deserve abortion care.

The opposite though is that regardless if you’ve been in Philly your whole life or just got here, if you can learn to say “havagoowon” when you leave someplace, you’re on your way to sounding like a native

If you have Black folks sending you prayers and loving on you, you have lived a good, unproblematic life. Live a life where Black folks ride for you when you down and celebrate you when you doing fine

Real talk, we collectively missed the communal point of the zombie media plot: you ALWAYS have to work with other people, to rely on their skills to cover gaps in yours. And, if you're lucky and work together, you survive to the end. Not just the end of the movie, but the end of the whole ordeal.

We were primed in America by the myth of self-reliance to lean into this fantasy. Every person believes that they will be the survivor, and that everyone around them is somehow secretly lacking and will die in the first day.

in retrospect i think the "zombie" tv/movie craze that encouraged everyone to fantasize about how theyd murk all their neighbors, hole up in their house and eventually run into the woods , was a mistake

Pennsylvania’s HB1873 challenges CPS overreach, clarifying that kids playing outside or walking to school isn’t neglect. Families deserve trust, not surveillance.

#adopteesky

Light blue background with faint teal gradient in the bottom left. Large black text reads: “A new bill in Pennsylvania takes aim at CPS overreach.” Small black text at the bottom says “@adopteescrossinglines.” A thin light teal line runs beneath the text.

Light blue background with faint teal gradient. Black text reads:
“The bill (HB1873) would change the legal definitions of abuse and neglect to require proof of willful or reckless disregard for obvious danger.

It clarifies that kids doing things alone, like going to the park or store, is not neglect.

‘These cases disrupt families’ lives and cause lasting harm,’ said Mariel Mussack of Community Legal Services.”
Small text at the bottom: “@adopteescrossinglines” and “Pennsylvania Capital-Star, 2025.”

Light blue background with faint teal gradient. Black text reads:
“Many parents, especially Black, working class, and single mothers, have been investigated for things like leaving a responsible teen home with a younger sibling.

Even when cleared, parents can end up on child abuse registries, losing jobs or facing stigma.

‘Families live in fear of being reported for what used to be normal childhood independence.’”
Small text at the bottom: “@adopteescrossinglines” and “Pennsylvania Capital-Star, 2025.”

Light blue background with faint teal gradient. Black text reads:
“Advocates say this bill is about restoring common sense and dignity to parenting.

Lawmakers argue: ‘Kids need freedom. Parents need trust. The state needs to stop calling poverty or independence a crime.’

Ending CPS overreach is one step toward ending family policing.”

having inconsistent interpretations of your own TOS and making rash decisions when you see something you don’t like, then suspending people and making a rule change later is not an issue of moderation at scale. myself and others have been saying this over and over again

Ms. Dolly is one of the FEW ppl we, as a ppl, love hands down.

Betty White was another.

What can I say about tonight’s sunset? Not enough. I’ll let the photos talk.

*all pics with iPhone

Pink and peach sunset clouds fill the sky, framed by two dark leafy trees arching over a brick building.

Vibrant red-orange maple leaves glow against a pastel sky streaked with orange and pink clouds at dusk.

Fiery red maple leaves frame a brilliant sky painted in orange and pink streaks, above a lighted sports field.

A fenced baseball field beneath tall stadium lights, with streaks of soft pink and orange clouds stretching across a fading blue sky.

Dolly Parton’s sister, Freida Parton, is asking for people to pray for her sister’s health.

Verified Facebook post by Freida Parton. The caption reads:

“Last night, I was up all night praying for my sister, Dolly. Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately. I truly believe in the power of prayer, and I have been lead to ask all of the world that loves her to be prayer warriors and pray with me. She’s strong, she’s loved, and with all the prayers being lifted for her, I know in my heart she’s going to be just fine. Godspeed, my sissy Dolly. We all love you! ❤️”

Below the caption is a photo of Dolly Parton standing outdoors in front of lush green ivy, hands clasped in prayer, wearing a shiny silver outfit with lace-trimmed sleeves, her signature blonde hair styled in soft curls, looking upward serenely.

TL; DR
In the next 5 business days you should be able to go to Link's page on blacksky.community and see his posts and he'll be able to post but people using the bsky mobile apps won't see it.
After that we'll get Blacksky-only posts up.
After that we can talk about purging bsky mod tools
