Everyone on Book Tok recommending dystopian books to read and I'm over here just looking for opulent utopian fantasies.

Over 20 years ago, when my Scottish accent was still thick, I met a girl from Virginia. In all sincerity, she asked me whereabouts in the States Scotland was. I thought she was joking and laughed. But she asked again, seeming confused why I'd laughed. She was serious. 👀

American friends, please know I can still see your content, your profile, and like and share and comment on all your TikToks. 💕

One of the best things about TikTok is all the hundreds of incredible recipes I've saved over these past few years. Today I made the Date Snickers again, this time with protein powder. Highly recommend.

Just saying ‘breaking news’ doesn’t make you a reporter or journalist. As TikTok fades, it’s clear: the line between credible reporting and someone reading CNN headlines in a suit is blurred. Media literacy isn’t optional—know the difference.

Today, I've discovered that some of my favourite TikTok accounts are actually Canadian when I thought they were from the US and vice versa. My whole feed is everyone saying goodbye. RIP my fave American accounts. I'm sorry your government sucks balls.

Dear Mark,
I hope this finds you well. I noticed something interesting today - it seems Instagram is blocking links to my little open-source project. You know, the one that lets people share photos without harvesting their personal data or forcing algorithmic feeds on them.
I have to admit, I'm flattered. Who would've thought a small team of volunteers could build something that would catch your attention? We're just trying to give people a choice in how they share their memories online. No VCs, no surveillance capitalism, just code and community.
Remember when Facebook started? It was about connecting people, not maximizing engagement metrics. Our project might be tiny compared to Instagram, but we're staying true to that original spirit of social media - giving people control over their online presence without turning them into products.
You could've ignored us. Instead, by blocking our links, you've given us the best endorsement we could ask for. You've confirmed what we've been saying all along - that big tech is more interested in protecting their walled gardens than fostering genuine innovation.
Every time you block a link to our platform, you remind people why we built it in the first place. Your action tells them there are alternatives worth exploring, ones that respect their privacy and agency. So thank you, Mark. You've turned our little project into a symbol of resistance against digital monopolies.

@dansup.bsky.social , who is the founder of pixelfed, sent this letter to Mark Zuckerberg/Meta regarding their blocking of links to Pixelfed.

Anyone out there a juicer owner and have tips on how to juice? I got one for xymass and just tried it today for the first time. I made little ginger/orange/ carrot juice shots for the week. (So yum) Am currently open to recipes, tips, warnings, etc.

What's great about Bluesky is the ability to decide what kind of platform it could be. So, give me your interesting (and factually based) insights into the world, your favourite artists (of all kinds), and your offer to help one another to build a great community where civil disagreements exist.

I watched Emilia Perez. It started off very bizarre, got even more bizarre and ended like a telenova. I think I liked it. But I'm still not sure. So much of it annoyed me. But so much of it I was captivated by. It is one of those movies you have to see for yourself.

I once walked directly through a group of geese not knowing how awful they could be. I escaped the experience unscathed, thankfully. Now, I would never! 😂

Just when things didn't feel like they could get worse.

Meta fake news free for all, TikTok, politics, upcoming elections on more than one level... My brain hurts.

I enjoyed the break over the holidays when my only focus was catching up on the BL/JB drama and over sleeping.
