The hospitals are severely understaffed at the moment. Anyone who can lend a hand, with or without medical training, meet me.[ attached: location ping to a hospital. ]My medical training was decades old even before I woke up in the future. More up to date knowledge would be good, but I can put people to work saving lives regardless.

Hi everyone! I'm Glimmer. I've been here for about three months now. It's been weird! But the connections and friendships I've started to make with the rest of you have been really helpful for getting me through some really rough times. That got me thinking about our little community of Displaced people and how we're all kind of in this together. I realized I don't know a lot of you, which is fine!
I would like to know more of you though. So, I was thinking about trying to organize a kind of community building event. Something to help people feel more settled or welcome. Even if being here sucks and is awful we've got each other, right?
So how about we have a group dinner or other meal. A fellowship meal. Everyone makes or brings something to share with everyone else, especially if it's a recipe from back home. We can share food and our stories and get to know each other. Find ways to connect with each other. I can't really host it because, uh. My apartment is tiny but we could use the safehouse dining space. Or if someone has access to a bigger space they're willing to share, that would be great too!
Obviously it's not going to be something everyone wants to participate in, and I'm not going to try and convince anyone that they should if they really don't want to. I just want to try and make the best of the situation we're in and get to know more of you. If it works, maybe we can make it a thing every couple of weeks or once a month or something?
Let me know what you think! ✨

Why do you think we are here? And what do you plan to do with your time here?[ it's something that's been on his mind. he's read the arrival guide. he's read about existing powers disappearing and new powers. he's read about this world —the climate crisis, the wars, the inequality, morningstar's mission.
it is enough to make him wonder. are they here for a reason? to do good, to help — he has long believed that the reason why he and the others were functionally immortal. now, they are here instead. all of them, together. perhaps this, too, is something that is meant to be. like destiny. ]I am also curious about these powers. How did you discover yours and what is it? If you do not mind sharing.
I don't know yet what mine is.

What do people do for hobbies around here? Aside from volunteering for medical torture.
Has Victorian flower languages come back in style yet? Bookbinding and leathercraft seems obsolete by now, but what about backgammon or cards. I once lost a game of trappola to the Duchess of Ferrara, she was shark. Scrabble? Does that work with the translator? Pomme de terre is about twice as many points as potato. [ please enjoy that this translates to "potato is about twice as many points as potato" unless you also speak french.
anyway joe is bored come talk to him ]Who wants to bring fencing back in fashion?
