My #FirstPost is a prayer to the internet and the global community that #BlueSkySocial does not go down the path of Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok.

Narcissism has no place in the world I want to live in.

Missouri's AG Andrew Bailey is suing Starbucks, arguing that its workforce is too "female" and "non-white" and as a result Missouri consumers “pay higher prices and wait longer for goods and services" because its workforce is "less qualified"
