Learning a new social media gives me anxious feelings. I'm on the blue sky but not really engaging. I honestly just want to catch up with folks I know, read interesting things and promote my writing or gigs. I see now that even Substack is following suit, and I just don't know how to approach it anymore.
the fish-in zine is so, so good! (i found it in a lil shop in michigan last summer.) tysm for sharing that the rest of mariame kaba's zines are on printed matter! can't wait to explore. <3
I like Bluesky for the chronological timeline of people I actually follow, the traffic—no link throttling—and the way the veterans of the Other Place are committed to ending the worst habits of that place. I’ve been on it for almost two years now, and yes, it was exhausting to go there and have to build again. My Tumblr had almost 100k followers when that fell apart. I don’t love making TikToks so it will never be my vibe and I hope it doesn’t die, for your sake. But what else can we do but move on and grow?
Welcome to the club of people who don’t eat candy and yet are obsessed with nerds gummy clusters. My brother passed me a handful this summer and I have not really been the same since!

Oh man nerd gummy clusters are a real journey! Hitting so many flavor notes in my mouth my brain is kind of exploding!

I wasn't aware this was a thing! I haven't completely stopped eating sugar but I have taken to the gummy clusters!
