if, for WHATEVER REASON, blacksky were to shutdown or disappear tomorrow, YOU COULD MOVE YOUR ACCOUNT BACK TO BLUESKY OR ANOTHER SERVER WITH NO DOWNTIME that's the difference between atproto (bluesky/blacksky) and twitter: you OWN your account/data
🍃K.R.E.A.M.🍃@kash2dawizzle.bsky.social · yesterdayQuestion then… If blacksky happens to shut down, because it’s connected to bluesky, would my bluesky malfunction? This is all i need to kno before migrating my account I’m a bit confused how there’s a whole new logo & website if it’s technically bluesky I just can’t afford for my art to disappear

Like these people are threatening to kill me and I’m supposed to talk to them and smile?
WA workers under UFW contract are clearing off leaves for better growth and production of the wine grapes. "Miguel" says: Chateau Ste Michelle cares about us. When temps reach 95° we're sent home. In hot weather they bring us in early so we can work when it's safer." #WeFeedYou

At your next meal, take a second to think about the people working long hours in HOT 100° temps to put food on your table. They're not just statistics. They're real people who can't avoid the heat in an air conditioned house or office. #WeFeedYou
