Amir sent me audio of the Israeli jet flying over his head that he thought was about to kill him right now! That’s not the first time I’ve been talking to someone in Gaza who was dodging being followed by a jet trying to kill them. What these people go through every day! @indrapramitdas.bsky.social

Chantal James@chantalalive.blacksky.app · 4d ago

Guys you know our friend Amir that @britculpsapp.bsky.social hurt by making fun of when he reached out? His mom & brother are sick. He reaches out to me in heartbreak saying his only phone broke & he can’t get on bluesky for connection. Can we replace his phone? chuffed.org/project/help...

Every time Google fires off an “a.i. summary“ someones home becomes a little bit more uninhabitable because the machines running the data center across the street are screaming at top volume while they consume all the potable water in the city and drive up the cost of basic electricity.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

My goal for August is to get $600 together to cover my car insurance bill and groceries! Maybe also help out with the utility bill if possible. Please consider buying a commission! Thanks!!

Nicky (🦵🏼🔑) Rodriguez is on sub! needs an agent!@artofnickyrdrgz.latinsky.app · 5mo ago

i did my 1st ketamine session for my ocd! i'd like to try a few more before i move sometime this summer, unfortunately, it's self pay $350 each time since it's off-label for ocd treatment 🥲 paying my stupid taxes & the timing of my pay makes it VERY hard to make it work, so ANY help is appreciated 🫶
