If you're considering a domain name for your project, then there are three important steps to take:
1) Do not purchase an illegal .io domain
2) If you already have a .io domain, then please consider making a donation to the Chagossian People and their fight for justice and a return to their homeland.
3) Move your domain to something else, as soon as possible.

My partner has the audacity to vacuum in the office while I'm hacking so I'm blasting Clown Core in retaliation.

Consider donating to this campaign giving no-strings-attached money to black women in Georgia: https://community.givedirectly.org/campaigns/cbcb518edbde54f8
Cool things about it:
- Comes from recommendations of a local community task force meant to address economic disparity
- There's explicitly no financial literacy training attached. These women know how to spend money, they just need it to spend
- The money given is no string attached. Agency!
