A lot of good stuff in this thread. Much of it is common sense, but it’s the kind of thing we (or at least I!) would do better to be intentional about…especially now.

How much do I hate that this is the topic of my first post on Bluesky? …A lot. I hate it a lot. But there is very useful and timely information here, friends, especially those in the DMV. Please pass it along.
DC's @51st.news recently ran a story in English, Spanish, and Ethiopian about this topic for DC residents. I'm not sure if it addresses your needs, but there are pointers to further info from various nonprofits.
