    I literally have nothing to do at work. It's frustrating and nerve-wracking.

    🚨 Help Evacuate Joy to Milan 🚨

    Folks, I need your help once again. This time, it’s for our very own @joynewacc

    As you know, Joy has been suffering through genocide and famine in Gaza and still helping others through her work with Gaza Verified. Now she has a chance at freedom as she’s been accepted for a Bachelor’s degree at the University of Milan and we’ve been able to work with the university to create a private scholarship for her.

    Now we just need to fund it and she could be evacuated as soon as November and we need your help.

    We need to raise $15,000 as quickly as possible.

    https://chuffed.org/project/help-joy-study-in-europe

    We already have a generous anonymous donor who has pledged $5,000 to match donations up to $10,000. So if you donate now, your donation will be doubled.

    As I write this announcement, there’s $525 raised.

    The campaign is being organised by @riverbirchtree who has been leading a team of twelve people from around the world for the past few months to arrange this and myself.

    Please donate if you can and help Joy escape to safety, continue her education, and continue helping others in Gaza with Gaza Verified (https://gaza-verified.org).

    And please share this far and wide.

    Thank you!

    💕

    This will be a long post so bear with me.

    So there’s a secret I have been carrying around all my life. It’s something that I realized when I was young and as the years went on it became clearer and clearer. But because I was raised in a deeply religious and bigoted family I kept that secret buried deep inside. Keeping it buried has done a number on my mental health over the years. Depression is something that has remained a constant in my life. But I soldiered on and continued living a lie.

    I’m sure by now you’re either figured it out or are wondering what this secret is. So let me just go ahead and say it…I’m . I’ve battled gender dysphoria all my life. I cosplayed as a man and engaged in hobbies and pursuits that were super masculine to hide the fact that inside was this woman screaming to get out. I got married, became a father, and continued pretending. But the dysphoria continued and depression took its toll on both my health and marriage.

    Fast forward to last week. While chatting with my Big Sister Wren this secret could not stay buried any longer and my egg cracked. I told her I was trans. All at once a huge weight was lifted off my chest. I cried. She cried. And my world changed.

    So here I am…Applefangirl. Hopefully those that follow me will continue to do so and support me over the next few years as I begin this transition journey. So this is my last post on this account (and it will be my pinned post on my new account). Love you all! 🩷

    I respect your courage.
    I regret it requires courage.
    I wish you happiness.

    I think i'll need to defend my stance on not wanting to promote and use 'AI' at work to management soon. So i will be looking for good arguments that i can write down beforehand and use, so i can try not to go off the rails.
    I am already reading 'The AI Con' by @emilymbender & @alex , but more suggestions that may be easier to use are welcome.
    Feel free to boost this message 🙂

    Enormous long shot.
    I lost my necklace today (Sunday June 15th 2025).
    Probably somewhere in Brussels during the manifestation.
    It was a custom made present from my wife.
    If anyone found this, or sees it posted as found somewhere, please contact me! 😢

    @georgetakei he got asked which he rooted for, Javert or Jean-Valjean. He answered that it was a hard question and asked Melania to answer! 🤦
