I don't feel like I can add anything productive to the larger conversation, but I can at least get a call to action for Gaza on a Conde Nast site (more on that later). Palestinian-led groups on the ground are at the top.

Sharks are cool and comfortable!

[Alt-text for pfp: a cute sharkaeopteryx sat on the ground with legs out, wings down, jaw ajar, and hed empty, looking at eggbug and eggbug's enigmatic smile.]

I'm a Vietnamese cis woman born and currently living in the U.S. You may know me from Sandwich, from Twitter or Mastodon (same username), or on Twitch as Sharkaeopteryx. I do not have a Discord or Bluesky account.
Ask me about language learning/teaching, cooking/eating food, late diagnosis ADHD, and volunteer small business mentoring. Or don't, I'm not the boss of you.
I think people deserve to be young, make mistakes, and grow without being held to standards they don't know about yet and are still learning. So, if you are under 22, please don't try to strike up a friendship or get involved in discussions on my posts.
Please don't automatically assume I follow/know/co-sign someone just because I reposted something from themโsometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Also, if you think being removed as a follower when we're not mutuals is a cardinal sin, please do not follow me.

As of this comment I believe that the Red Crescent Society website is down, at least in some areas including mine. I'll update here if it comes back online for me, but please visit the other groups in this post if you're able.
EDIT 10/20 3pm EST: PRCS site still appears almost entirely down across the globe. I hope this is because of a server overload which is not being prioritized, and not something worse
just going to start threading comments here. PRCS is still active but sounding the alarm about Israeli threats demanding they evacuate another hospital https://twitter.com/PalestineRCS/status/1715474535837843804
UPDATE: PRCS has confirmed their website is not reachable outside Palestine. They have provided information for wire transfers on Twitter if you're comfortable doing so (I have transcribed the info in a new share of this post): https://twitter.com/PalestineRCS/status/1716067116909039621
Sorry for not updating this thread folks--thankfully PRCS has since gotten back online. Please give if you can!
