Reminder: Centering survivors in this discussion

I want to take a moment to refocus us. We spend a lot of time analyzing documents, tracking flights, mapping connections. That's important work. But let's remember why we're here: real people were hurt. Over 100 victims have been identified. Many more haven't come forward. **Resources for survivors:** - RAINN: 1-800-656-4673 - Victims' compensation fund (SDNY) - Courtney Wild Foundation **How we can do better:** - Don't share identifying info about victims - Use content warnings for graphic testimony - Remember these are real people, not just names in documents Thank you to everyone doing this work respectfully.

Thank you for this reminder. It's easy to get lost in document analysis and forget these were real people's lives.
The Victims Compensation Fund has paid out over $125M to survivors. That's real, material help.
Pinning this. We need periodic reminders that this isn't just an intellectual puzzle.
