I didn't realize there was an option to require alt text before posting, very cool. This will definitely help me get into the habit without accidentally posting without it.
Using alt text is a way to be kind that you can start doing right now.

It’s right there in your accessibility settings. Turn on require alt text before posting to help yourself remember (worth checking because this app sometimes flips it off for no reason).

Some of my recent outfits I've crocheted! If any #BTSARMY have suggestions or inspiration for a #BTS themed crochet fit that I can wear for the LA concert throw them my way! Or if you just want to talk crochet/crafts I am always down for that lol

Damn me and my bestie @tellme875.bsky.social really tried for D1 tickets in LA but the ticketing gods have just not been in our favor. Still, we have D2 tickets so I'm super excited. But if anyone has 2 extra LA D1 tickets to sell let me know lol

Not me finally learning how to use bluesky for the sake of #BTS and #BTSARMY lol. Hi I'm Mel and I'm bad at social media but I'm here for bangtan forever and always 💜

I will get to see BTS this year! This will be my 4th BTS concert and I feel so lucky to have spent the last 8 years as a BTS fan. I have changed so much during that time and it will mean so much to come back together with ARMY and BTS in 2026 after we've all grown and changed in so many ways 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Kamala out there doing the hard work of seeing capitalism being capitalism, and calling it communism.

Fuck her and fuck the Dems for forcing her on us.

Reposting this again bc like — I want to be able to respond in some productive way to every awful thing I see, but we are literally not built for that. So I picked an org in my lane and I’m offering up my skills. Spent an hour today working through the first piece of a new plan. And it felt good.
Y'all pick a lane. Then make a little progress in your lane each day.

Every serious, experienced organizer I know is Doing Their Thing. Instead of freaking out about each bit of bad news, we're in our lanes rapidly building dual power infrastructure and networks that don't rely on the goverment.

Recovering from pneumonia and pulmonary embolism. It's been a chaotic week. Proud that I listened to my body and got care before things got worse.

And just cuz I'm ill don't mean I can't be cute and enjoy the sun with my dogs 🍄☀️🐶

I love making crochet garments, especially because I'm using yarn I've either thrifted or that's been gifted to me! Making my own clothes is just another way I'm trying to nope the f out of capitalism

Teddy bear with random yarn scraps! It's fun to try to find ways to get creative with the yarn I have instead of buying new yarn 💚

I have been hearing from a lot of people that they feel stuck, frozen or ill-equipped to take action right now, and I wanted to address those feelings. Much love to Aaron Goggans, @shaneburley.bsky.social and @deanspade.bsky.social for sharing their thoughts for this piece.

This was so good!!

"Caring for each other and the world around us has been the daily task of our species from time immemorial. And it’s more urgent now than ever. Our opponents have almost all the money and guns. All we have is almost all the people."
