For folks looking to help the Afghan people, a group of folks in the natsec community are organizing a private pledge effort. According to a friend, they’ve raised over $100k which can save up to 200 people. The more raised=more people saved. If you can give, give. Any bit helps. – at Washington, DC
Okay folks, we've got a lot of moving pieces here trying to help get folks out of #Afghanistan. You can watch the news to see the situation on the ground but what I'm helping with is organizing a charter flight and taking pledges for folks who want to help cover the costs.

A @SadoKisen_0203 ship on its way to Ryotsu, Sado Island. Sado Island (#佐渡島 in Japanese) is a major tourism destination in Japan and draws many international tourists. Sado Kisen became and remains the only transportation company to get to this part of Japan. #KODAK #Ektar100

Did you know that today is Greenery Day みどりの日? 🌱🌷 There are lots of exciting museum and archive materials from Japanese artists and scientists recording nature, but we’re fans of this @britishlibrary Furuya Kōrin volume from 1907 with brilliant flowers! #Japan #みどりの日

1/ Last month saw the 74th anniversary of the Feb 28th Incident of 1947, a watershed in Taiwanese history. It has usually been described in terms of identity politics, as a localist uprising against mainland Chinese misrule. Whilst this was one element, economics played a part.
