A sure fire way to get a millennial to roll their eyes at you is to ask them how The Postal Service got their name.

I think managing to write a romantic poem while the overhead speaker loudly plays Chumbawumba is a small victory worth celebrating. #blueskypoetry

Went to the #TeslaTakedown protest today in Brooklyn & it was the happiest & most optimistic I’ve felt in 3 months. About 150 people at its height. HUGE response from passing cars, including city buses honking! Everyone hates Musk. A big round of protests nationwide next Sat. Find one near you!

Join us for our monthly second Sunday poetry open mic. This month’s featured poet is Cecily Stone, celebrating the release of her new book!

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

I do think I need to have an honest check in with myself if I’m still cool because my music app is recommending me sleep music based on my listening history

Mahmoud Khalil expressed his political point of view peacefully. That’s supposed to be permitted in a democracy. If this egregious assault on civil liberties stands, what’s to stop Trump from arresting American citizens who support any cause his regime doesn’t like?

Trump signed executive orders to expand logging on public lands while bypassing environmental protections. His “energy emergency” declaration lets him override regulations entirely.

(1/4) Today and every day is a great day to support amazing Denver-area small businesses. Our little dream of queer beer for the masses is supported by you, our amazing community. We couldn’t do it without you.

Similar to the petty stunt Reagan did when he removed the solar panels Carter installed on the White House roof.

I am so excited for this! Thirteen has been my lucky number since I was probably about thirteen. This poem invited so much play and experimentation into my poetry. Thank you for the acceptance, Tiny Spoon! #poetry #tarot @blueskypoetry.bsky.social #blueskypoetry

"What can I do against Trump, I'm just a..." Yeah, what could a weirdo photographer Surrealist do? Convince the Germans that two people was a whole resistance movement, and absolutely slaughter morale, with a bunch of running pranks, it turns out. Find your lane, people, and work it hard.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

A poem of mine, with music by Chadzilla Johnson youtu.be/eS4ZIdlCAtA?... @blueskypoetry.bsky.social

Did you know studies point to the idea that just viewing photos of nature alone can lower your stress levels?

NEW: I just reintroduced my We the People Amendment. It’s past time to reverse the disastrous Citizens United decision and put power back in the hands of the American people. Corporations are NOT people. Money is NOT speech. Let’s get this done. jayapal.house.gov/2025/02/13/j...

Music is such magic. The poem wasn’t working and then it was and I realized Alice Coltrane was playing her harp above my head. Muse plus magic. Music.

@blueskypoetry.bsky.social friends— Is there a name for a poem that adds a word(s) with each line i.e. Is Is there Is there a word Is there a word for this?

Costco, which has come out saying it supports DEI, will make no changes to its existing programs, AND pays workers a minimum of $30/hour, is up 15% YTD. Target, which announced it is ending all DEI programs and has a minimum wage of $15-$24/hour, is down over 4%. Keep voting with your wallet.
