Thread: Potential #DallasTornado built-environment exposure. Disasters are a product of society and are caused by extreme events interacting with human, social, and physical vulnerabilities. #ExpandingBullsEyeEffect #txwx #Tornado

Potential #DallasTornado damage path overlaid on the current regional land cover/land use. Most of the potential damage area traverses medium to high intensity development (i.e., urban/suburban densities) (2/5)
Housing density from 1950-2019 relative to the potential #DallasTornado path. Dallas is a prime example of the extreme urban sprawl many cities have witnessed over the last 75 yrs. Unfortunately, Dallas is also very prone to tornado impacts... Disaster waiting to happen... (3/5)

My boss used to say that I'm a good learner and so I rarely make the same mistakes twice. #Thread
It's because my mind does this weird thing. I take a pictorial snapshot of important events and can recollect the feelings and sensations years later, as if they happened yesterday. I remember Ebenezers; life's memorials.
I vividly recall when I realised that certain values were becoming rare in Nigeria. Concepts like hard work, diligence, loyalty, love, honesty etc. It was 10 years ago.

 Tiktok is easily the most underrated and underappreciated product of our times even despite the scale it has achieved.

IMO, every founder, VC and product-person *must* fall in love with how and what of Tiktok.

Here's why...

 Let's start with a little history:

YouTube launched at a time when video content was about to go mainstream and hosting the videos with efficient playback was initial major pain-point.

They solved exactly this and built one of the most successful product out of Google.
3/9
 But YouTube failed to solve it any further for video creators.

Why do you think you, me and most people don't upload videos on YouTube actively?

Bcs there's friction. It's damn hard for most people to learn how to edit and produce above average videos.

While I cannot attest to the veracity of these reports, I think there are misconceptions here about climate-linked humanitarian crises. One of the effects of climate change is the increased frequency of extreme events such as droughts and floods. #Thread 1/10
So, just because there have been severe floods in certain parts of the country *does not* negate the occurrence of droughts in other parts. I think the term "localized" needs to be emphasized in this context because the impact of extreme weather events is seldom uniform. 2/10
Here is a very basic background of the rainy season over Somalia. During the Gu, the Somali Jet plays a key role in transporting moist air from an area of high pressure around south of Madagascar, past the Horn of Africa to India. The Jet dumps its moisture along the way. 3/10

For some of us, too, it /IS/ all men, or has BECOME all men. Saying “Not All Men,” then, is telling us our experience isn’t real, which— fun fact— makes you one of those men.

Instead — 👏🏼 ACTIONABLE ADVICE AHEAD 👏🏼 (thread)
Apologize for your gender (leave the part where you blame society for how you’re socialized until later— she may even bring it up herself! We know!), thereby acknowledging & validating her experience, and ask yourself or even her (!) How can I make THIS experience better?

E.g.
Hang on, I have to get a beer.

And dinner— it’s not /just/ bc of this thread! 🤣

I think it's important to note that you can be deeply introverted like me, without being shy or self-deprecating. A long time ago I realised that I would be poor and led by fools, if I continued to be shy. #Thread #Introvert #Shy
I needed to speak up about my ideas and ideology. I needed to be bold about my contributions and talents, before other people's mediocrity killed me.
I decided my route to leadership and prosperity would be by "doing". I would work harder than anyone else. I would volunteer for things no one asked me to do. But, I didn't just "do", I claimed what I did. I published my achievements and gained recognition. I began to lead.
