You do not have your shit sorted as much as you think; you are not old; this is not your last chance to get strong but it’s the best time to start; life is not an exercise in what is enough; shitty jobs and spouses to the airlock; get free, get fed, then help others do the same.

As a medical professional, I have one thing to say about this:

DO NOT USE AI OR CHATGPT TO MAKE OR INFORM YOUR HEALTH DECISIONS.

Do NOT do that. If you have questions, ask a medical professional.

Please.

For the love of all that is right in this world, don’t trust your health to chatGPT or AI.

Pay attention to the language that will be used by much of the media.

The Global Sumud Flotilla never entered Israeli waters.

They are in international waters attempting to reach Palestinian waters.

Israel is once again breaking international law

If you’ve got an extra screen that isn’t doing anything right now, throw on the Sumud flotilla livestream and play it in the background. The more eyes on it the better, even if only passively.
