OK, let's start again today.
BE NICE. -E

Betty (memory problems) @bettymemoryprobs.bsky.social · Dec 31

For the next twenty-four hours, everybody please just try to be kind to one another.
Repeat again tomorrow. -E

Two snow people (?) are dressed up like police officers with a cap and a belt and a name tag and a tie. One is in male garb and the other in female. Both are smiling.

The "how to repair a car" category had me in stitches.

My condolences to her family and friends.

I thought she had a squirrel on her head for a minute. Tired eyes.

Wow, that just looks like an online joke.

Ahh shucks.

Thank you.😄 I can't help it. The sentence thing gets to me. -E

Valid questions. Wetting the area around the smoldering ground seems like a logical step, too. -E

That's very kind, thank you.

I'm on some block lists for daring to look at certain people's accounts. I'm willing to pay that price to be an independent thinker.

I saw this on the telly news. Very good boy indeed.

Thanks, Sinead. It's just somebody who blocked me. Usually I don't bother to check, but I thought it might be that gal with all the pretty plants we found the other day.

Oh well, I'll block them back. I don't need the narrow-minded who use block lists.

My beautiful #Orchid flowered for the 1st time since 2023 in April of this year & its still looking fabulous!
For 5 months these beautiful flowers have graced my house, with no end in sight! I'm just loving my plant & the fact that it's obviously happy! 🙏

If I ever come over there, could I visit and just sit amongst the plants? I won't touch anything.

Someone was posting about pine green being a dated color from the 1990s, and I thought of them today when I saw this pretty car.

This dark green SUV stood out in the parking lot because of its vibrant color. It also had a foreign license plate on the front that was large and bright yellow. (You can't see that in this photo.)

I wish I were a morning person in the east. I had to move to a later time zone just to fake it.

I use the internet like the old fashioned landline phone party line. There's no expectation of privacy, and we learn things from sharing with each other.

It depends what crowd you're hanging in. As an independent thinker, my conservative friends think I'm liberal, and the liberals here on Bluesky often mute or block me because they think I'm conservative. Not talking politics, just in general. Mob mentality in and of itself can be mean.

I feel this way about being blocked. I'll have mutual followers and I asked them a question like a location or to explain something because there's no alt text, and next thing I know I've been blocked. Instead of realizing something new they'd rather hide? I wasn't attacking, of course.

Of course, if these expeditions add too much negativity into my world, I stop.
Duh -E
