My one wistfulness in leaving that once beautiful and now contaminated site is that I don’t know where to find granular #gaza #palestine content here. I want to know what’s happening on the ground. Any recs?

“Yesterday I visited my son's school and I saw a bright colored bench in the yard. I asked if it was new.

He said to me, ′′no, that's the ‘friend’s bench.’ When someone is down, they'll sit there so others find them."

To me, that’s how finding Bluesky feels.

Follow us if you’d like a friend! 💙
