@levostregc.bsky.socialReposted by @debbieohi.comWorrye not about 'being productive,' for thou art not a product. Thou art a star daunsinge yn a hopeful skye. A signal blinking across centuryes and worldes. Thou art a song performid just once and perfectlye. Ther ys no part of thee that evir koude be wrong.

@agnesfm.bsky.socialReposted by @debbieohi.comI know everyone is desperate for an Adobe alternative but I'm not sure installing half a dozen AI-created programs is the answer
@debbieohi.comBluesky uses Klipy (not Tenor or Giphy) for its gifs. I have some available for use at:

@debbieohi.comApologies for misspelling the author's name, should be Chelsea M. Campbell. I know I could edit it via Anisota but then I'd lose the likes/shares so am going to leave it.
@debbieohi.comHappy book launch day to my friend @charlenedraws.bsky.social who illustrated WHEN A DRAGON GOES TO A PARTY!,written by Chelsa M. Campbell: us.macmillan.com/books/978125... w/ Feiwel & Friends. Charlene helps me run the #KidLitMegaFeed (thanks, Charlene 🩷). #BookBirthday
@debbieohi.comI've noticed that Bluesky's "Trending Topics" list has been more interesting to me lately, with less politics and sports. Might be because I've muted certain terms/topics (esp a certain name) because they never come up in my Trending topics anymore, yay.
