Tens of thousands of refugee and asylum-seeking children in Egypt are out of school, in many cases due to significant bureaucratic registration barriers and a lack of free, publicly available education.

Tonight there will be a Blue Supermoon at 9:35 ET

The moon will appear about 8% larger than a normal full moon and 15% brighter than a normal full moon.

The next one won't be until January 2037. Keep any eye out tonight!

Thank you for raising awareness about the devastating situation of girls and women in Afghanistan. It's heartbreaking to see the world turn a blind eye to this inhuman crisis. Women's rights are human rights.

Nightsky | hctr.dev See live conversations from all over Bluesky as a dynamic night sky

I made a thing!

I was playing around with the AT protocol and as a little experiment I made a website that visualises activity around Bluesky: nightsky.hctr.dev

It listens to all new posts and shows them as little stars across a night sky ๐ŸŒƒ

Every star is someone, somewhere, posting something

Taliban forbids women from 'hearing each others voices' - Observer Diplomat The Taliban's latest decree forbids "hearing voices" between women in Afghanistan, marking an unprecedented restriction on basic human interaction

The regressive Taliban regime has imposed a new ban preventing women from "hearing the voices" of other women, marking yet another assault on fundamental human rights. #opDeatheaters #Afghanistan

You know the Guy Ritchie movie where a Green Beret, Jake Gyllenhaal, travels to Afghanistan to save his interpreter from the Taliban. Cute story. But this is what reality looks like for most former US allies:

Dont' try to put out fire by throwing on
more fire! Don't wash a wound with blood.

No matter how fast you run, your shadow
keeps up. Sometimes it's in front!

What hurts you, blesses you. Darkness is your candle. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿฆ‹
