My aunt was in the Nepal floods, wasn't close to her but she was sweet, hugged me after my Atta's funeral, had been wanting her and my Uncle to come over during Christmas a few times.
Now scared I won't ever get a chance to really know her
She has 2 daughters and a husband to come home to.

Thank you Musk, you asshole. My Auntie is among the missing, her husband (My Uncle) and two daughters are safe in Australia, but lord knows if we will see her again.
I wasn't close to her, but she was sweet, she and all of Nepal did not deserve this.

This is one of those rare books that manages to be both clever and entertaining. It’s a smart, quick read that will especially appeal to anyone familiar with the often surreal process of trying to get published.

Donald Trump must be removed from office for threatening war crimes and genocide.
Speaker Johnson: bring the House back into session.
Invoking the 25th Amendment and impeachment must be on the table, but Congress should also move on a War Powers resolution to stop Trump.

I've wished for Arab-made games about Arab mythology for so long, and despite assisting on the project I still can't believe there's one swinging for the fences this hard. House of Hikmah is something very needed in a time where the world would rather erase us.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.
This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

As my fingers sit over the keys
Waiting to write words
Of joy, sorrow, excitement, and hope
But the voices are silent
Spoken no word for months
The faces I created
Stare with blank expressions
When will the words return
For the stories I want to write.

Please help Soumi survive and rebuild her life after she lost her life savings to a scam. She's a valuable member of our SFF community and needs all the help she can get! 👇
As the end of the year approaches, I'm grateful to those who donated to help me through my difficult situation. Thank you so much. However, donations have stopped entirely & I'm still struggling to survive. I'll be grateful if you could help me reach at least 50% of my goal.

There are a lot of things that make me mad. Like. A long list. But fake AI videos of wild animals doing cute things that animals do in fact do, make me so unreasonably mad. Should this incite the most rage in my heart, of all the horrible things going on right now? No. But here we are.

Why am I being asked to verify my age? I thought there was some scanning of my posts. (BTW why is it also not accepting my Suncorp card? I don't care if it's not a credit card, it's still a card I am using). #auspol
Bluesky, I was born in 1988, so I am well over the age of 18, even if this account was only created in the last few years.
If my account disappears because their AI model can't tell somehow that I am an adult, that will be why.
