Sending love to my Arab and Muslim friends right now. I see the Islamophobia and racism you're experiencing right now. It's not okay. And this Jewish woman says you're awesome and I'm proud to stand with you. (The only thing I'm mad about is not being able to vote for Mamdani OR El-Sayed.)

Kivan@kivanbay.bsky.social · 23h agoFolks, I didn't make rent and a huge bill just hit on top of it. I am still looking for work. I badly need to raise $600 this month

genuinely embarrassed to be struggling as much as I’ve been this year. but I only have $50 in my account right now and I’m really freaking out about everything. I’ve been supporting my family for a while, and without even realizing it, drained my bank account doing more than I could afford.
I love you all but you are incredibly (understandably) reactive. It’s making you SO easily manipulated by rage baiters. When you see something without context, a headline or a snippet of a quote, take a deep breath and look into it to see if you really should be upset. Please protect your hearts.
A reminder: If you absolutely cannot boycott Amazon, don’t. But can you make them NOT your default? If every Amazon customer cut their spending by just 10%, Bezos would burst his facelift sutures. This doesn’t have to be an all or nothing.
If you see this, quote with a song lyric you love (you feel like it) Well, darkness has a hunger that's insatiable And lightness has a call that's hard to hear And I wrap my fear around me like a blanket I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it I'm crawling on your shores

One thing @shivaniswriting.bsky.social and I have in common is a love of sharks, so when I found these enormous shark rubies as earrings, I knew I had to grab them and make pendants for me and Shiv. 😆 Shiv has legit gone on shark tagging excursions.

Then she called it her friend. Terrifying shit. She ragequit
