WCK’s Chef Mathieu checked in from Jamaica ahead of Hurricane Melissa’s landfall as a Category 5 storm, which struck Jamaica’s southwestern coast with winds reaching 185 mph. Once it’s safe to do so, our teams will mobilize with local partners to serve meals to impacted communities. #ChefsForJamaica

Lost my favorite person on 6/29 (only a couple of weeks after losing a friend). Relieved she's no longer suffering but also deeply heartbroken.
I love you, Savtush, and always will 💔❤️‍🩹

Welp, was considering finally deactivating the bird app last night and then thought, "but how will I know if there's another earthquake?!"

Pleased to report that this app works just as well, thanks everyone. We can leave the bad place now.

One of the darkest, but less reported, aspects of Trump’s anti-trans order this week IMO is that he directed the DOJ to remove protections for trans prisoners from Prison Rape Elimination Act guidelines. Story at @theappeal.org today from @byadamrhodes.bsky.social: theappeal.org/trump-execut...

So how are we talking about the war on here? Are we being kind and civil? Do we hold space for the humanity of both Israelis and Palestinians? I came here hoping for that.
