However, anyone who registers can use the app's main functions for free. As far as I can see, these include the option to 'follow' me. Please message me if you do. I'll follow you back as I want to experiment with the 'social' features of the app.

I 💙 this. I did something similar one time when I was recovering from an episode of depression based on a twist on Luke Rhinehart's novel 'Diceman'. Bit of a tl;dr tbh.

Followed and will try to check his books out. One of his recent posts cracked me up. I'll try to tag you. Not sure if this platform enables that. I'll soon know if not.

There's always such a strong subjective aspect to film/music/art/food/everything IMO. You just pushed Anora right up my list Justin. We love films like that. Currently, we're still recovering from a massive Yellowstone binge. Did you see that? We loved it.

Thank you. Do we know each other IRL? Don't recognise your nickname and my memory is garbage! I'm guessing you were in my FB friends list, which I did a mass Bluesky follow on with an app.

I'm brand new to Bluesky. Mainly been on FB for years. The ❤️ function is inappropriate for my feelings about this. I'm still finding my way here. You have my sympathy. I loathe it.
