Tomorrow is a weather service — a community of people sharing resources and delivering justice, hope, connection, safety, and resilience in a world in urgent need of systemic action.
It's weather that changes the world.
We’ll be doing local newsletters, drop-in audio chats during times of scary weather, original journalism focused on climate justice, and a paid service that will let ppl ask unlimited questions.
It's a revolutionary weather service for a revolutionary moment in history.
Right now, the National Guard is staging in the parking lot of the recently re-built Target across the street from the burned-out shell of the Minneapolis PD 3rd precinct building.
A pedestrian walked by with his hands up and the National Guard just waved
Honestly though, I’m at the “withholding time with grandkids” stage of pressuring them to go the 4 miles into town where vaccine appointments are ready and waiting but they still refuse. I’m not sure what to do. 💔
Their reasons for vaccine hesitancy:
- Afraid of possible side effects
- Don’t like “being forced”
- Afraid of what family & friends will think of them
- Peer pressure “75% of people around here won’t get it”
- “I might die of Covid but I also might die in a car crash tomorrow"
Literally one of the worst companies I've ever encountered: @PrimePay
All I need is my tax document from a company that fired me. I contact HR from previous job to change my email to my personal email so I can log in. But PrimePay's website is broken. (1/?)
I login with my old email address and saved password, nothing happens. (It redirects me back to the login page.) I login with my new email address and save password, nothing happens. I see they have a "new portal" so I try logging in to that, pass the captcha, nothing happens.
I click the "forgot your password" button, I get an email to verify my address (progress!!) click the link in the email, redirected back to the same login page, nothing happens. No way to change my password. (3/?)
The most important: The continuing long-term trend of catastrophic warming is what scientists are most concerned about. Not whether this year is a fraction of a degree above or below another year.
That trend is due to human activity.
If you break down the data by land vs ocean, you'll see another very important trend: Temperatures on land (where we all live) are warming faster than ocean temperatures.
Also, the data is much more clear: 2020 was the hottest year ever measured on our planet's continents.
