Just read this story and donated, it’s more of a sanctuary than a zoo, many of the animals are elderly, disabled and could not be relocated if their funding is allowed to lapse. Just a little bit of good in these unfortunate times…💔 zoonewyork.org/donate-1 www.nytimes.com/2025/10/17/n...

Wednesday start Good morning Blue Sky

Life changing

I'm sad to say that since leaving Twitter/X my sales for live shows have dropped quite a lot - it turns out that even though it's a dreadful place it was still useful for getting the word out about events. So any shares / RTs of my posts about live shows are hugely appreciated!

#MiddayMagic Eleven-year-old Samuel Henderson, of Choctaw, OK, wanted to compete in a school talent show, but no student from special education had ever participated. His talent earned him respect, admiration, & friendship. Moral of the story? Be kind & open. Hidden talents lie within us all.

82?…82?????? WTF??? My first reaction was once again to say “unbelievable,” but unfortunately it’s unbelievably believable (and heartbreaking 💔) that poor old man… 82.

“the kindest person in the room is often the smartest.” JB Pritzker is a mensch.

Embarrassingly, I think I shared one of these posts (which has now been deleted) because I’m a sucker for a sad animal story. If anyone actually donated, go to gofundme.com, review and if you think its a scam you can request a refund! The gofundme is still up and they have gotten >$5k so far 🤬

Succotash dinner last night with sautéed pancetta, Rancho Gordo Bean Club Large Lima Beans, Trader Joe’s heirloom grape tomatoes and fresh corn kernels (+minced onion, minced jalapeno) finished with RG pineapple vinegar, cilantro, flat leaf parsley and cotijo cheese (so, so yummy) Only 3 WW points!

Here’s some dog content to temporarily distract you from the mess happening in the world

SCOTUS is basing their birthright ruling on England's High Court rule 249 years ago So what was the point of breaking from England again?

🗣️9 YEAR OLD: “What Trump is doing is frightening — unlike some people we know the meaning of the Declaration of Independence.”

Sobering recap of the pre-vaccine, pre-WHO world and reminder of how deadly unserious the anti-vaccine arguments are. I got a childhood smallpox inoculation before it was eradicated in the US, not all that long ago - 30% mortality is absolutely incomprehensible. Vaccines save lives. WHO saves lives.

Penguin’s reaction when her favorite human comes to check up on her.. 🥹

Federal workers SAVE the government money, that’s why firing them is COSTING the government money. This isn’t difficult.

Good morning BlueSky. Appreciation is a powerful way to express gratitude and recognize the value of people, experiences, and achievements. It fosters positivity, strengthens relationships, and encourages kindness in daily life. Let’s all show a little appreciation today!💙

I believe this conversation happened

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

ELON cancelled a check already in the bank using private information about NY from Treasury

I’m a former auditor, this is beyond frightening.

Turns out this is exactly what they’re doing… a systems controls and security nightmare.

“No American can be proud of a govt that carries out change in this way. Neither can these actions be rationalized by discussion of past grievances or appeals to efficiency. Everything can be more efficient, but adherence to the rule of law is paramount” www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

I suspect that it’s not about “waste and efficiency” at all, but about scooping up gov data to “train” his 3rd-rate XAi Grok system and why they’re rushing into every agency so fast to see types of available data. Elmo’s pitiful dick-measuring contest with Sam Altman. @muellershewrote.bsky.social

I could watch this all day... 📽️puppiesig

#caturday #catsofbluesky #cats Just can’t wait to be on the road again…🎶

The unelected neo nazi ketamine freak muscling out treasury officials and taking control of government payment systems is the kind of thing that should be a bigger story in American media. Maybe. Perhaps.

These women didn’t sit down, stay quiet, or ask for permission—they broke the rules and changed the world. Role models. We should add Bishop Mariann Budde to the list.

Do you know what they called Germans in the 1930s who didn't really love Hitler deep in their hearts, but went along with Nazi stuff, and did things like Nazi salutes, because they enjoyed how it upset groups the Nazis targeted and other non-Nazis? Nazis. They called people who did that Nazis.

Happy Caturday🐈‍⬛🐈💙💙💙 Just a little sploot in the morning💙 #catsofbluesky #cats #Caturday

We were seeing a 98% drop in exposure over on Twitter. The censorship was so extreme we thought it best to start over somewhere else. We chose Bluesky. Help us gain our following back Follow Retweet Repeat Join the park side @altyellonatpark.org

Been thinking about this a lot (not tagging the sender, for their privacy). Most of us won't have the chance for for grand, capital-R Resistance heroics. But every one of us will have a thousand small choices to make about how to live our lives and where to draw lines. Use them well.

Any questions ?

The CEO of the ASPCA, Matt Bershadker makes $1,000,000+ a year. He's made more than $7,000,000 since becoming CEO. If you want your donations to help innocent animals instead of millionaires, give to your *local* shelter.

Happy Caturday!!! 🐈‍⬛🐈🥰 #Catsofbluesky #cats #Caturday Hungry Face

Keep your eyes on Jack Schlossberg. He's without a doubt, the best Kennedy warrior to keep the heat on RFK, Jr., the biggest embarrassment to the family. He's just not going to let RFK, Jr. get away with anything.

We love Jack Schlossberg, for openly despising RFK, Jr. more than anyone else on the planet. Go, Jack, go!
