- Last minute park hangout this weekend! Come spend time outside with CC friends or make some new ones at Memorial Park in Royal Oak on Saturday, September 27th from 1-5 PM. Masks required and provided 😷 Accessibility including parking and transit information at linktr.ee/safersharedair
- A Roll-a-Ramp is now available to borrow! This ramp rolls up for transportability, has a capacity of 1,000 lbs, & can accommodate up to a 4" rise for unassisted wheelchair users. Check out the full details and borrow this ramp from the Safer Shared Air Collective Lending Library on MyTurn!
- Weekend plans? Come hangout in Ypsi this Saturday from 2-6 pm! This event highlights the beautiful area that the regents of U of M and Los Alamos Labs (the creators of the atomic bomb) are angling to build an AI data center, despite the community being opposed to the plan.
- Data centers like this are terrible for the people, parks, and wildlife who call the area home, everyone who shares the grid and wider community, and everyone and everywhere the weapons their research helps create might be used (the list goes on).
- Information about the project will be available, as well as the usual park hangout goodies and festivities like zines, stickers, crafts, lawn games, and more! Feel free to bring anything you’d like to do with or around others. More info available at stopthedatacenter.org and linktr.ee/stopthedata
- Accessibility info: tr.ee/5vxfrLQcID Note also that this park costs $3 per day to park. Season passes to township parks can be purchased for $10-20 depending on residency, and free for local seniors! If cost is a barrier, or you’d like to help cover costs for others, please reach out.
- Envo, Flo Pro, & Flo Kids are now available to borrow from the SSAC Lending Library! These masks have reusable frames with disposable filters which can reduce waste. If you've wanted to try one but don't know how they'll fit, borrow to try before buying. Check availability in the SSAC MyTurn!

- Reposted by Safer Shared Air CollectiveMy original piece for @thesicktimes.bsky.social is here. This was exciting to write since @betsyladyzhets.bsky.social made the wonderful suggestion that I organize a survey. It's always great to talk and think through something at length that I've been mulling! thesicktimes.org/2025/01/30/t...
