@HamonWry we love you!
#idalia is not ideal.
@realcaseyrollins ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@realcaseyrollins he's been pretty windy and destructive for a while.
i guess the M in these images is for 'Major Hurricane' but i just think of it as 'Motherf%er'.
NOAA Graphic, cone of probable path and intensity of (currently still) Tropical Storm Idalia.
@realcaseyrollins (desantis has been a slow disaster, but the immediate impetus of a federal disaster area declaration covering much of florida is the impending now-tropical-storm, soon-hurricane idalia.)
it's been a while since #RonDeSantis made the state a disaster area, but it's nice to see the Federal government formally acknowledging that.
getting so many texts and robot voice calls and siren-like long-tone warnings in the iphone about this hurricane it feels like the subtext is you're all gonna die.
erring on the side of making absolutely sure via every redundancy that everyone is warned might be the right choice. but it has some downsides too.
if you understand the question, what's your answer?
(maybe why in replies!)

“Human beings find meaning only by living in ‘multiple realities,’ flourishing in those human sanctuaries where thought, creativity, friendship, love, and worship are nurtured and expressed. But today we are mentally trapped by the logic of competitive life, living as functionaries in a world where it seems nothing is leisure, everything is work, and the boundaries protecting the sacred from the profane are being erased every day.” https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/civil-theology-robert-bellah ht @poetryforsupper

@Frances_Larina i agree completely. https://fosstodon.org/@interfluidity/109452048730005235
@guacamayan 🙂 i’m a bit slow.
@guacamayan once upon a time.
user-generated links now come from the gigasites and SEO manipulation. organic linking of good content from user-controlled sites is overwhelmed to negligibility. traditional Google page rank fails to provide quality results.
Google increasingly not only downranks in the list but refuses to surface more obscure results. it relies on the "authority" of linkers, which means, it builds in a Matthew effect.
it's quite terrible now.
but then, so are its competitors.
