- Dear Canada- Please accept our deepest apologies from all decent Americans embarrassed by the obnoxious trolling from our man-baby-in-chief who is lacking in both intelligence & any impulse-control whatsoever. ❤️ from your neighbors below, 🇺🇸 #MakeAmericaNormalAgain
- This was drawn for a collab that I did with another artist on Cara, Chun Li in my chibi style ^-^ #art #digitalart #fanart #chunli #sf6 #streetfighter
- Twenty-third book finished in 2025. This was a fun read, if uneven. It was at its best when it took place in space, which allowed Kirby’s art to shine. When it got back to Earth, it sometimes dragged. But this collection also had some great extras, including scans of original art.
- Let it begin.
- Schoolchildren are routinely slaughtered by AR-15s. Hundreds die. [*crickets* "Thoughts and prayers" *crickets*] A couple unoccupied cars are set on fire. No one is hurt. ["THIS HORROR WILL NOT STAND!!! We MUST act to STOP it from ever happening AGAIN!!!!" We will pass new LAWS BANNING IT!!!]
- I mean.
- If Jesus were alive today and gave the sermon on the mount to a crowd of conservative Christians, they would clutch their pearls and call him a radical leftist.
- “Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office and you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.” This man has been fighting a war against Russia for the sovereignty of Ukraine… who cares if he’s wearing a suit??
- Found two different lipglosses today; tucked inside jackets I haven’t worn since last fall/winter. So I got that goin’ for me. Which is nice.
- Hi! I’m Claudia: middle-grade writer, painter, and sometimes poet. I love the moon and stars, trees and rocks, glitter and fairy lights and black. I’ve also got an increasing number of tattoos — my favourite form of self-expression 🩶✨ I’d be happy to meet you, too! 🌙✨ #kidlit #art #poetry
- Is it possible to convey my love for all my Bluesky followers without taking you out to dinner or spending a single penny on flowers, chocolates or Valentine's Day cards? We're about to find out... (if you "like" this post) ♥️ 🥰💘🫶💟💝😻💚❣️😍❤️🔥💙👩❤️👨💛🖤👩❤️👩💟😘👨❤️👨💖💞 #HappyValentinesDay

- A morning joy moment brought to you by my 5 year old doggo, this is Cookie aka LaBelle aka Monster aka Cuckoo. Snow makes her so happy 🐕 And of course have to respect her privacy when the 💩 circling starts 🤣 #dogs #dogsofbluesky #happy #joy
- My kawaii frog has cozy evening with books 🐸✨📚 #illustration #kawaii
- Redrew my drawing from 2021. Unfortunately, this sketchbook was destroyed in a fire. Only a photo remains. #artprogress #drawthisagain #illustration #digitalart #procreate #procreateart #procreatedrawing #artist #beforeafter #artistjourney #progress #drawingprogress #plants #flowers

- Hi, blue sky community 😊 I’m illustrator, that love nature, sun, kawaii things, medieval architecture and everything that could remind me about my childhood. I work in two absolutely different styles. Hope I can make friends here.
- For a long time I thought my main reason of posting was to convince conservatives of left wing politics. Now I’m thinking it’s more important to share to show other leftists that they aren’t alone. The right never shuts up, let’s not shut up either. The left cares about each other. Let’s show it.
- Meet Harriet, my 2025 Book Snake! Named after one of the MCs in Kirsten Miller's The Change, she is the more attainable option to the traditional Temperature Blanket, helping me track books instead #BookSky📚💙 #KnitSky
- Happy Superbowl Sunday for those hoo(t) celebrate 🦉

- If you or your business are located in Kitchener Centre and you would like to share more about the impact these tariffs will have on you to help inform my advocacy, I am here to chat. Feel free to be in touch by email at mike.morrice.C1@parl.gc.ca.
- Happy 99th birthday to artist Robert McGinnis, born on February 3, 1926. Most known for illustrating over a 1,200 book covers and dozens of movie posters.
- I won't be posting much about potus and his pals (because 🤮), but can someone tell me please, are we sending truckloads of drugs and undocumented folks to the US on a daily basis?
- Me when my eyes are bigger than my stomach.
- If you doing it, look for “Product of Canada”
- California hits back. The Felon is full of empty threats. Credit to @erininthemorning.com
- do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you
- @vuronikabaked.bsky.social 💜 Thank you for today!
- I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are
- Only a third of the way through picking up the series but hopefully I'll make it someday.
- A timely reminder to support Canadian, support each other, and remember we are always stronger together. Collective stamina is needed now, and I hope we fare better at this than we did the last time we were asked to make sacrifices for the common good Love and strength to our many American allies 💚
- Published in 1947, this was the first comic book series devoted to showing real life Black Americans in a positive light. The stories were reprinted from various issues of True Comics, Real Heroes, & Calling All Girls. #BlackHistoryMonth
- I was feeling the need for a solid comfort read today and remembered that my only unread @lauriefrankel.bsky.social novel was sitting on a shelf, waiting for the exact right time. She never disappoints, and the first 50 pages have confirmed this was the right choice 💕 #BookSky 💙📚 #FavouriteAuthor
- WELCOME TO BLACK HISTORY MONTH
