@TheSpinoffTV Seeing the replies here reminds me of why we are all moving to BlueSky. I've really loved your news, one of the few sources which isn't a paid RW broadcasting tool. And see how much hate there is because just ONE such outlet exists. 💜

BOOM: Unearthed video shows dozens of people streaming out of a Trump Rally while he is still speaking. This sharply contradicts his claim that people don't leave. 🚨RT to EXPOSE Trump's... shrinkage.

@jessiegender @TeamYouTube I've logged into Twitter after seeing your item on YouTube, and hoped this had a better resolution than this. So sorry that YouTube seems to be so opaque and unhelpful with it's content creators.

I'm deeply angered by this response @TeamYouTube. I would appreciate specifics on WHY the age gate won't be lifted, especially because your citation contains ZERO nudity. Here is the screenshot you cited for "sex and nudity." Also, why isn't my vid considered artistic?

@jessiegender @jessiegender update: after a thorough review from our policy team, unfortunately the age restriction won't be lifted. we understand this wasn't the outcome you were hoping for, but you can learn more about our age restriction policies (cont) goo.gle/3Xmq4rO

@DiannaLGunn Ugh. I too sit in "natural" positions which I only realise later, hurt. My favorite is the dead foot because I've twisted and hooked my foot around the back of my chair.

@SarahKateIshii I had to have a magic system with limitations. Just enough that people would welcome science as more reliable. Mainly as I wanted a world to match Restoration Britain.

If you write magic in your books, what are the consequences of using magic? I want to see people getting addicted to it, overdose, losing part of their humanity, being unable to do anything without magic. Replacing life force with magic ability. What do you have?

@ClaireLLLW81 I've seen them a couple of times. I worked out a whole mythology around them, but the stories never quite worked.

@jennelikejennay I am. I have written Melody Harper series which channels a lot of what's made me tick. But she's not explicitly neurodivergent.

Hey if you're neurodivergent or think you might be, and you've written a book that's for sale, can you reply to this? I'm trying to read more ND-written books, especially autistic-written books, because they click with me in a special way. And I'm sure I'm not the only one.

@eschaubz I have suffered depression on and off for 30 years, and have friends who've had it too. A common theme from us is it gets easier to recognize that bad as it gets, it's a cycle we have been through before. To know there will be better days ahead.

@DiannaLGunn But the issue is that rich people keep pushing the narrative "you people just need to pull yourselves up by your bootstraps. Have you tried NOT being poor?"

Talking now how burnout has been an issue. In recent years many roles are covering for a lack of people and that creates strain. I'm hearing this a lot...

@MeikeTorkelson He hated the casting for the molds, and he does not want to change his routine to out his braces on every day, BUT he's really eager to have less pain.

Welp, he definitely needs braces that he'll need to wear just about constantly for the foreseeable future. But the braces mean he'll be able to avoid surgery, and they should make a huge difference. He really hated the casting process for the molds, but he did a wonderful job!
Charlie Knight [they/them]@CKnightWrites

Off to see if The Kid needs to be fitted for leg braces! He's very excited this won't be a doctor who gives him a shot lol but ✨️ very ✨️ nervous about a new doctor/new sensory stuff. If you have good vibes to spare, he could use 'em!
