@HillNikki I’m over here looking for connections to pick up elsewhere.

[Heather Deal @VanRealDeal]

@HillNikki I moved to mastodon, then BlueSky, have found the biggest cohort on Threads. Plus convenience of cross posting with FB and IG. Yes, the meta-verse, but reaches more people. My content isn’t as informative as it used to be, but I want to stay connected.
Leaving X tomorrow

@cmall Thanks - I’ve been on BlueSky for a while and felt pretty lonely, so I succumbed to the meta-verse. That’s where people seem to be assembling after a couple of false starts. But I’ll keep an eye on BlueSky!

Hi all,

I’ve laid low here since the name change - now it’s time to say goodbye to the thousands of you who are still here (maybe in name only).
I’m now on Threads, FB and IG.

I will end this account in a couple of days.

I miss the old Twitter and our good times.

Tired: America won’t elect a woman - especially a Black woman - as President.

Wired: They will if you do the work.

@NancyBepple @taylorbachrach @FCM_online Hello friends! Have fun at advocacy days - one of my fave parts of FCM! Letting our federal representatives know what local government needs for healthy communities.

I am happy to support @RARVancouver! Reading (and writing) have been a source of joy and adventure my whole life. Pick up a book and disappear into it. I highly recommend it! Also, hit the link and support @RARVancouver literacy programs if you can!

Any suggestions for propagating a magnolia tree this time of year? I lost the tree off my balcony but the crew kindly left me a large clipping!
