I just set up an automated way to send out invite codes to astro folk who request them 😁 I think I can send out about 100/day. 🔭

Donate any codes you have here: forms.gle/R35p4MRSwpk2...

& please share this code request form with other astro folks: forms.gle/GggKAPv8Vcrv...

Yes, I’m in favor of blue skies, in general.
