That post is incredibly misleading. The CDC is warning travelers to avoid 30 other countries, although it notes that most adults in the US are vaccinated. It's a CT local paper, hence the focus.

It's a local CT newspaper warning people who travel that polio is a thing in 30 countries. No cases reported in CT. The whole article feels like scaremongering.
Yummm.
Shiv has taken on some of the auction work for me and came up with this incredibly cool stainless steel dragon at a good price and a size ten. If this was in sterling, it would be 3 times the cost because of the density. Size 10.

I love collecting everything my accountant needs for taxes.
I especially love doing it for 2 accountants in 2 countries.
Remember that time Substack sent push notifications advertising a Nazi blog?
We're past the point of ignorance. Here's a handy labeller to make it easier to just STOP SHARING SUBSTACK LINKS.
It's really easy to not endorse the Nazi platform.
Reads like a puff piece someone smashed out on a Friday afternoon before a holiday. It doesn't quite read like AI *to me*, but its soooo not sourced, cited, or supported in any way.
If you have the ruby pendant from Friday (lost track of it in the threads), or another large red/purple pendant or necklace, I would be grateful!
I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author
I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own governmentβs repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.
I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.
Sahar Delijani said it best:
Ooooh that was an easy block from me.
Ahhhh these are sooo good! I adore Zyll's pocket jacket.
just fucking do SOMETHING and donβt let the constant stream of atrocities keep you frozen in inaction.
yeah, pay attention to the news, but make sure you know when/how to look away at least long enough to take care of those around you & do what you can to support work that needs doing.
thanks
9/9.
I am so happy to hear this π₯°
I feel sick.

A lot going on today and it's overwhelming. A few things you can do that aren't:
βοΈ Call your reps and express your outrage at what the U.S. is doing to Iran.
π Read a book on liberation.
π΅ Donate $1-5 to a local mutual aid.
π£ Uplift oppressed voices.
π§Ά Do a small, quiet craft.
Incoherent screaming?
Does not seem like I will get a response before logging off, so please contact the next in line for either of these!
Thank you!! I am consulting with the siblings and my dad to see if either of these would work for my mom for mother's day. Will let you know as soon as I can!
And 11. I could only get 1 I think but I know someone who loves red stones.
How much for 12?
Post a pic you took, no context (but with alt text), to bring some zen to the feed.

Also Redwall, on some kind of forums, and I was 11 or 12. Good ol' ROC.
Instant Ramen with some cut up/jarred/canned veg and canned chicken with a soft boiled egg.
Loaded jacket/baked or mashed potatoes.
Reach out to your friends and support groups for meals. Even DD/GH gift cards from distance folks are helpful.
You will be in my thoughts tomorrow. At home is a blessing and also so, so hard. We felt it was worth the trade off. Take care of yourself too. Shower, walk outside, eat takeout, stay hydrated.
