Oof. 200k subs is shocking. They lost the subs/renewals money and now have to find it again, through more marketing. So the overall damage is easily in the tens of millions, which means disaster unless Bezos funds the difference. Or sells. Feel awful for people there. www.npr.org/2024/10/28/n...

Once a month we have folks over for waffles. The last one was a birthday party. We turned it into a clothing drive for www.fbfneighbors.org and got a ton of clothes. We talk about how to handle stuff while our kids hang out. IMO the best way to prep for apocalypse is to get to know the neighbors.

My business partner is Lebanese and we work with many people in Beirut. There are lots of ways to give, but one I am excited to see as a fan of mutual aid is the Beirut Synth Center—which has transformed into an emergency mutual aid center. DM them for PayPal info.
