He's from Chicago!???!?! 😭😭😭😭
Hey Mastodon, I need a big favor. My friend @npub1a0qv...k02t lives in Gaza, & she & her brother are currently trying to raise money to feed their family, care for their father who is suffering from kidney complications, & eventually leave Gaza for Egypt. They are a family of 6 & it looks like their estimated costs to cover everything would be $50,000.00. So far they are at $27,064, can we try to get them over the finish line? Here is a link to their GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-sehwel-family-with-their-medical-treatment?utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=qr_code&utm_source=customer @mutualaid group
I know that I've been posting a lot of fundraisers from people in Gaza but I wanted to re-up this one since these kids are my internet niece and nephew. They're trying to raise enough money for food and necessities (flour alone is going for 400 per bag) and little Mohammaed is in need of medical treatment. #mutualaid @mutualaid group https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-muhammads-family?attribution_id=sl:cf4baaa5-2f6c-4545-8d23-0c2ffab1deb3&utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet_ai&utm_content=amp8_t4&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link image
Razan (@helpmyfamily11.bsky.social on Bluesky) that is currently at $18,940 out of $30,000.00. But more pressingly, she needs to raise $200 to feed her kids. Please give what you can, also, this one is important to me because her kids are my unofficial niece and nephew. https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-muhammads-family?attribution_id=sl:cf4baaa5-2f6c-4545-8d23-0c2ffab1deb3&utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet_ai&utm_content=amp8_t4&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link image
I hate it here
Reporting back from Bluesky and I hate to say it but it's actually fun over there now πŸ˜‚
One of the most alarming things about the rise of social media and the gutting of traditional media is seeing how so many people are vulnerable to conspiracy theories, and not even the believable kind, but the "Mickey Mouse lives in the sewer and kidnaps children" kind.
Now that the twitter exit has reached critical mass, I finally deleted my twitter πŸ˜₯πŸ˜₯πŸ˜₯
Matt Gaetz?!?!?!
So has anyone had the experience of mass deleting twitter posts only for them to come back?
