🦋 WELCOME TO BLUESKY! I recommend exploring our custom feeds, which are a little like hashtags but more interesting. We have them for academic and professional subjects, sports, cities, hobbies (e.g., gardening, baking), and many more. Search them in the sidebar under Feeds. 🧵
There have been small, meaningful projects resurfacing. Real people emailing me about things I believed forgotten. It’s reassuring to know the care I put into my effort still reaches people. As an artist, that’s all I hope for. As a person, that’s all I want.
Bro I'm struggling with my disability so hard -- how do I not beat myself up. How do I believe in my capabilities if I'm not able to operate?
I really miss the “ intro+verse+chorus+verse+chorus+bridge+chorus+outro” formula.
The Trump administration is eviscerating post-Watergate efforts to protect the Justice Department’s integrity, and the case of NYC Mayor Eric Adams illustrates the results.

i dream of a world where Blacksky is more notorious than Black Twitter so users can get jobs bc of their content/virality too
Industry companies really overlook the importance of working with small sites & creators. For some reason the criteria is that they need to hit a special following number before they even glance in their direction, but even then, what's offered is free (digital usually) stuff, but no payment.
Every time I interview and get hired for a job, management is SHOCKED when I express I need an accommodation. Immediately following up with “you said you could do this in the interview” “I expressed my capabilities, and now I see that I need more support. I could not have known this before.” Dawg.
Whether you're a translator, editor, or project manager, giving feedback to your coworkers (and yes, I'm including freelancers in that) only helps to improve the overall quality of someone's work. But do it wrong and you could risk power harassment. j-entranslations.com/how-to-give-...

Handicaps and disabilities don’t just like…. up and walk away lol it took me FIVE years to get to this point. And i’m not all the way there yet. I’m close, tho!
i’ll never NOT emphasize how meaningful it is when people don’t punch you down and hold your symptoms/chronic ailments against you.
people who understand what it’s like to have an invisible disability and give you grace to do your thing ❤️
it KIND OF sucks to wonder if every weird smell is a symptom of another ischemic transient attack or is another stroke and every day i’m reminded by the fixed vocal fry on the right side of my voice box. So FUCK IT i’mma sing my heart out bc this rasp is so dope and I’m gonna live it up.
people who think DEI is a slur and we don’t need inclusive language to make people remember not everyone is like themselves: bro that’s like actually pretty self-centered and closed minded of you. To HAVE an opinion on the rights of minority, etc. you must acknowledge we’re human beings among you.
DEI is when a woman or non-white person who is qualified for a job receives that job. The meritocracy is when a 19 year old gets to run the United States government because he posted the dankest memes
Jacqueline Sweet@jsweetli.bsky.social · 2y agoYes totally cool that a 19-year-old who called his deleted LinkedIn "Big Balls," where he lists his experience working as a camp counselor can access the entire US federal payment system without anyone looking into his background, for instance, his Russian national close relatives or anything else
Ya boi finna be Dr. Girlfriend / Dr. Mrs. The Monarch out here the way my natural speaking voice became a vocal fry after my MASSIVE STROKE SCARE in August (so when you hear a deep vocal fry with a voice remember that's a symptom of having HAD a stroke/scare.)

revamping my closet with clothes I ADORE makes me want to style cute outfits and styling cute outfits makes me want to go outside and do things!!!! Invest in yourself, it really is all worth it. :)
These are the good guys supporting DEI. Reward them with your business. Costco Meijer Kroger Giant Grocery Ben & Jerry’s Ulta, Macy’s Old Navy Nordstrom’s TJ Maxx GoTo Foods ( Moe’s Southwest Grill, Mcalister’s, Auntie Anne’s, Jamba, Cinnabon…) Dollar Tree Walgreens Wegmans
