Hey all! I’m asking for help for this father trying to raise emergency funds to go get his oldest son, whose mother died suddenly this week, three states away from where Dad is living with their daughter…

Mom is #AlaskaNative from Kaltag, and if you know US history, you know how important it is to keep Native kids with their families. 💔

@goodthinking I think the first thing to do would be figure out if there’s somewhere you can put a projector that would have the desired effect… sounds like the building across the street would’ve been perfect, but you refer to it in the past tense?

@skinnylatte The difference between this lady and a US candidate is that she dropped out instead of doubling down. 🙃

So, I’m working on a series of screaming animal stickers. I feel like extravagant screaming really suits the global zeitgeist of the 2020s, don’t you?

So, which animals would *you* like to see having a really soul-deep scream?

@paul @DemocracyMattersALot Oh the depths of the irony at play here. :dumpster_fire:

@skinnylatte Oooh. How big is it? I want to imagine it’s like human torso size.

@MediaActivist @feisty_lemming @Tutanota So glad I saw this post, I’ve been wanting to ditch Gmail, but hadn’t heard of anything that sounded unproblematic enough to go to the bother.

Now I have! Thank you!

@skinnylatte @msquebanh Subscribed! I love non-Americanized cooking channels. :blobcatheart:

Holy hell. That’s just amazing. My gasts are thoroughly flabbered. https://mastodon.social/@mckra1g/113755195995796683

@skinnylatte @kickingvegas Aww, dang, no delivery here.

But “Lanzhou beef noodles” does give me tons of recipe search results! :blobcatheart: (And I’m happy to simmer animal parts for days on end if it’ll give the the results I want. I can get a little obsessive about my soups. lol)

@skinnylatte @kickingvegas I still kick myself for not taking a photo of a menu page at this one noodle place in Beijing. The English translation of the soup name on the menu was “Private Beef Noodle” and I have no idea how to find a recipe to recreate it, because searching for that phrase sure doesn’t yield results. :BlobCatPain:

It probably goes without saying, but none of the Chinese restaurants in Fairbanks, Alaska have anything that even comes close. :blobcat_cwy:

@skinnylatte “my classmate stayed at the…”

*blink*blink* Jesus fuck.

@seachanger “Holocaust inversion” is a new one on me. What horseshit.

*phew* Whoever got my eSIM used almost all 10GB of data in two days. :blobcat_sweats: I definitely cannot afford $70+ a week, I’m hoping they just had some things they needed to catch up on, and will slow down to an affordable rate for me.

Maybe a journalist with a lot of video to send? :blobcatthink:

So the other week I finally had some spare cash to throw at https://gazaesims.com and I’ve been anxiously checking my Nomad app every day since then, and today my eSIM was activated!
:blobcatcheer: :wecan:

If you’d like to help provide internet connectivity to folks in #Gaza, check out the https://gazaesims.com site and consider donating (and keeping topped up) an #eSIM also. This is the only way Gazans can currently communicate with the outside world.

Update on my #Gaza #eSIM

After the first 10GB disappeared in less than three days, the top-up 10GB took a couple days to activate, ngl I was worrying. But now it’s activated and being used at a much slower rate.

As I mentioned last, I’m imagining a journalist with a ton of video trying to get it all uploaded while they had data… maybe they caught up? :blobcatheart:

Anyway, https://gazaesims.com if you’d like to help someone going through hell keep touch with the outside world. #Palestine

Oh no… my #eSIM in #Gaza has been at the same usage level for a couple of days now. Hoping maybe something happened to the phone, but not the person. 😞

If it’s still stuck in the same place by payday, I guess I’ll get another one and submit it… but I hope it starts getting used again! #eSIMsForGaza #FreePalestine

Go to https://gazaesims.com if you want to also help someone in Gaza communicate with the outside world.

Well, it’s been two weeks now, and the old eSIM I had topped up for #Gaza is still not being used. I really hope something happened to the phone, and not the person. 😞

I did buy another eSIM and sent it in to #eSIMsForGaza, and I’m waiting for that one to be activated now.

Last I saw on Instagram, they are critically low on #eSIMs, so please if you can afford it, go to https://gazaesims.com and follow the directions for buying a Nomad eSIM!

My second #eSIM has been activated! There’s been 1gb used in the last day, and now I have to remember to keep an eye on it to top it up…

If you’d like to help someone in #Gaza have access to the outside world, you can buy #eSIMsForGaza too! Go to https://gazaesims.com for directions how. I’ve been buying Nomad eSIMs in 10gb increments, and I’m hoping this second one gets used for longer than my last one did.

I didn’t watch the debate, but my god the masto commentary is killing me… :dumpster_fire:

I keep telling myself it’s not too late for both of them to drop dead before November.
