Mississippi’s HB1484 is absolutely terrifying. Regardless if it passes or not, the fact that it has even been introduced shows just how far we’ve regressed. My heart is sad. 😔

Donald Trump will be indoors for the inauguration with his billionaire pals. His core supporters will be left outside in the cold.

Think about that.

Surgery went well on my foot. The doctor seemed pleased and hopeful. I am very thankful for the donor who provided their tendon in death to aid in my healing journey. I will take very good care of it, and take it on many wonderful adventures. I plan on writing the family to express my gratitude.

One of the coolest parts of releasing the at protocol TikTok (aka @skylight.social) after only 72 hours of building, is that every time users open the app, they’ll see new updates!!

Hopefully every update brings it closer and closer to the community feeling so many of us experienced on TikTok!

Just realizing: of course there will be a 90 day extension issued next week on the TikTok ban. And not because of our ability to use the platform. But because 90 days…gets us to Tax Day. So all the people/biz’s that have generated income won’t be able to say “I couldn’t get my tax forms from TikTok”
