The ceasefire has taken effect in Gaza but my friend and brother Mohamed's land is lost to the nearly one mile "security buffer zone" it provides which of course comes from Palestinians' land. So he remains at Al Mawasi camp. chuffed.org/project/help...

Apparently people have been getting their needs fully met from that thread I started as well as the multiple other threads inspired by Link.

If this doesn’t demonstrate Link’s impact and the value of BlueSky as a mutual aid network, I don’t know what can.

Keep it up y’all.

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

honestly fu** you if you think gazans are only allowed to ask for help to cover their very basic necessities when they’re starving or being killed, calling a gazan a grifter for trying to secure her education proves that you don’t see gazans as humans who deserve to live equally.

Interesting how the Indigenous woman kidnapped from the Conscious flotilla isn't getting a fraction of the attention as white participants. Even articles aren't naming her! Her name is Mskwaasin Agnew.
