I would be very happy if Bluesky became the alt-weekly of the social publishing landscape. Just a small, never-profitable operation populated by queers, lunatics, and semi-charming cranks whose rants you can always skip. Mostly I mean it should recognize that letting sex workers advertise equals $$$

Tipping this over the fence into #QueerCommons because "Williams wants to let his former comrades know 'a faggot is doing this to them.'” A white gay ally.

#qc may not be the best choice since it’s also Québec and will probably get used for that way more. 😅

For #authors who are just joining Bluesky:
There are a number of writing feeds set up that you can add to your feeds. They each have their own rules for what shows up there so check the feed descriptions. I'll comment some of the ones I'm aware of below!

Hey Skybrarians, ALA issued a statement about the nonsense in Montana without actually supporting their president Emily Drabinski. Not great! Here's a support letter you can sign on to.

If Bluesky seems dead or low activity on your end it's because we're waiting for an adequate trust and safety statement on anti-Black racism.
If Bluesky seems dead or low activity on your end it might be that you haven't yet made the most of its design. It's different from Twitter in some key ways so you have to interact differently.
