I read all your email. Or used to. Recently retired. Didn't plan my bsky name very well.

I'm a dude disguised as a human, trying to be kinder every day. Veteran. Ridiculously liberal. I love motorcycles, SCUBA, and animal welfare. Bob Ross is my hero.
Little bit behind, but just finished Arcane season 2 last night. Show of the decade in my book. If it doesn’t win ALL the awards…

Apart from the unbelievable artistry in the animation, it had the best writing I’ve seen on TV since Station 11. And the actors, just incredible.

I’m still in awe.

Carl Sagan is the reason I kinda lost hope for humanity.

Because he was right. He predicted just about everything that is going on right now. Saw the beginnings of it firsthand. Tried to warn us all. I've seen the interviews, documentaries, the hearings he spoke at. He tried.

We didn't listen

Don't be afraid to prune back if you followed too many of a certain type. While I love and agree with most of the political sentiment I see here, I have to adjust the ratio a bit. Need more moto/scuba/games and less doom.

I'll still be there with you when the war starts.

I love the Mutuals feed here. I can drown in the firehose of all the creatives I follow with the regular feed, then flip over to Mutuals to see what all my new friends are up to.

Bluesky rocks.

Sometimes I wonder if this is the bee in some people's bonnet. Let's try to make sure life doesn't imitate art! Be kind to those around you.

I'd be ok just sending them home with a Kazoo variety pack and a megaphone.

A #Blacksky safety feature is nicknamed banned_from_tv.
For certain accounts reported to @blacksky.app we block them from even seeing the feed.

Accounts banned from tv see the following when trying to load any of the feeds. This is what the latest main character would see today.

It’s that time of year where the air is crisp, the days are short, and you spend every waking minute finding creative ways to keep your cats off your expensive but very warm electronics.

Made myself an egg sandwich for breakfast and I put 3 fried eggs on instead of the usual 2. Sometimes you just gotta live a little.

Atlantis and Discovery were the two easiest vehicles to launch, I worked MPS/SSME on all 4 vehicles (all except Challenger). Some of the people I worked with:

Riding is an excellent form of meditation. Clears and focuses the mind - and keeps you in the moment for long periods of time …if you manage to escape the city traffic. #motorcycles #shortrides #motorcyclelife #cbr250r
