Ive been trying for over a month to make the perfect loaf of sourdough bread from a starter I did myself. Who knew you could make a loaf of bread with literally nothing but flour and water? If you count how much I make at my job hourly in tending this starter, this is $250 bread. #NotForSale

I haven't been on Blue Sky for a minute and I dont have many friends here, so I doubt I've been missed. If I happen to cross your feed, check on your strong friends. 2026 has not been kind to some of us so far. Since we are labeled "strong", we dont know how to ask for help.

I've been struggling with hair loss for the last 2or3 years. After thousands of dollars of meds, creams and ointments, my hair is growing back (about 80%). Thanks to the right volume shampoo and conditioner I feel OK about being in public without extensions or fake hair added. Still thin, but all me

I just wanted to give Mikie Sherril $10 for her governor's race in New Jersey. Trying to make my donation, I faced an hard stop since I didn't care to reveal personal information, such as where I work and what I do for a living. The site said this was required by law. Is that a thing?

You, too, can escape religion.
Bible verses that refer to the book being immoral and a fairy tale book. God commits genocide, condone and legislates slavery and tortures you for eternity for thought crime. As a fairy tale, there are talking animals, giants, devils, zombies, ghosts and witches and wizards.
