This, from the veritable @NaomiAKlein, is what #sustainability practitioners should start saying every time we hear "that's not possible/too expensive" "consumers don't care" "that's not a priority right now" etc. #ClimateChange #DisruptOrBeDisrupted #NotBusinessAsUsual

This obscene price-gouging should be illegal - these are for DOMESTIC flights in ECONOMY with 2 STOPS @united @PeteButtigieg @USDOT. Happening across at least 8 diff routes I’ve been checking & refreshing since yesterday (after 3.5 hrs on hold & being rebooked 2 days later 🫠)

I've done fact-checking during several conflicts. Never have I seen one where so much disinformation is posted with the direct intent of dehumanising real victims of war on both sides.
Dead or injured women and children, civilians, hostages, prisoners; no-one is being spared.

Everything is absolutely awful, and for everyone’s sake, especially your own, it’s worth taking a long look in the mirror and asking if you’re making it worse.

If the pro-Palestine Left is unable to vocalize in this moment a principled opposition to massacre of Israeli civilians- even as we affirm the right of Palestinians to resist brutal apartheid- we are abdicating the values of justice, human rights & dignity we have long espoused

Hundreds of innocent people are dead, including kids, and folks on this website on all sides are using the tragedy to score points, settle scores, and behave like mindless amoral partisans.
The worst of humanity on display.
Identity politics, mob mentality, reductionist binary thinking, performative internet hot takes for clout, knee-jerk reactions, misinformation, ignorance, & lack of empathy *literally* gets people killed & will be humanity’s demise, in so many ways.
I feel sick.

the only thing that scares me more than the relentless floods and fires we see through our phones that eventually will come to all of us, is the total lack of response from everyone else as the world collapses in front of their eyes

As a nerd who religiously monitors Caltrans and CHP reports this is a hotter mess than usual for SoCal. Stay off the roads unless *absolutely* necessary. If you must drive, please turn around when you experience flooding, don't drown. #cawx quickmap.dot.ca.gov – at Sonoma, CA

All-time records for atmospheric moisture (precipitable water) values have been set today across several locations. All of this moisture is ascending orographically and has to be expelled. Catastrophic flooding is unfolding from Hilary.
Jessica M. Rosen (she/her) retweeted
Your eyes aren't deceiving you...the center of Tropical Storm #Hilary is right over the city of Los Angeles!
The flooding rains will continue into the overnight hours for the Southwest.
Bizarre how smug & dismissive people in less impacted areas are being. The storm was ALWAYS going to hit the mountains & deserts hardest - you know, those places you like to vacation?
Do people just not see this info, do they really not understand it, or do they just not care?
Heavy rain and dangerous road flooding still happening in #LosAngeles and #Ventura Counties. PLEASE STAY HOME AND OFF THE ROADS TONIGHT. This is a DANGEROUS situation. #cawx #larain #tropicalstormhillary

This is a very dangerous situation developing for northwest Los Angeles County and eastern Ventura County. The worst flooding is in the mountains and foothills, stretching into parts of the San Fernando Valley and into Camarillo. The heaviest rain is falling there. #CAwx #Hilary
Jessica M. Rosen (she/her) retweeted
PLEASE...STAY OFF THE ROADS.
The rainfall intensity we are observing is producing SIGNIFICANT flooding issues.
Here is a shot of the 30 minute rainfall rates across the Santa Monica Mountains and coastal Ventura county. #CAwx

More than 9” of rain atop Mt. San Jacinto so far!! Mountain runoff will continue to keep the wash actively flowing.
Fun fact: the daily rainfall record for Palm Springs today was .21”. That was busted this morning and rain continues to fall!

The West Coast right now feels a bit like someone is playing Sim City and turned on all the disasters on simultaneously
Jessica M. Rosen (she/her) retweeted
Major flash flooding has developed over western LA and eastern Ventura counties. Over two inches of rain has fallen in just 2 hrs, and torrential downpours continue as a rainband on the western side of #Hilary stalls. Water rescues due to trapped vehicles per @NWSLosAngeles.#CAwx

M5.0 near Ojai, north of Ventura. I cannot emphasize this enough -- this earthquake is **NOT** related to the tropical storm. #earthquake
