These past few weeks have been kinda heavy here on Bluesky. We are grieving quite a few recent Rainbow Bridge crossings, as well as other changes to our community.
Tomorrow, though, will be a day of joy. Many members are working hard to make it so. I’m looking forward to seeing y’all there.

😂 The humanoid AI robot drank too much vodka!
Joke of the day from Moscow: Russia tried to unveil its first humanoid AI robot, Aidol. Key word: tried. The robot collapsed during its debut, forcing organizers to cut the presentation short. Their rushed attempt to lift the prop only made things worse.

I just spotted our first Bohemian Waxwing of the fall. Waxwings are calendar birds, not only for the pin-up looks, but their annual appearances and disappearances turn the pages of our seasons. #birds

BREAKING: We won!
Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

Really nice story behind the hashtag
The #UglyDogs started as a musher fandom that was birthed on twitter with the same hashtag. It began when a troll replied to
@blairbraverman.bsky.social with the phrase "go back to your ugly dogs karen" and we all kinda ran with it.
We became known for doing good under stress. :)
