I don't remember. But notably. My brother had a mouse. Then I got a mouse. And we forgot to make sure they were the same gender. And then we had, more mice.

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users. While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.
