#Learning about different #IdentityLabels is more than just discovering a #category of #people who are "out there" somewhere. It is that, and that is important as well, for appreciating the vast and intricate #diversity of our species and for holding #solidarity in #liberation struggles. But it's also about #understanding new lenses to view our own selves and #experiences through, and how new #concepts #apply or don't in our own #lives. That's #subversive to #cisheteronormativity.

Some warnings about weather data when using -->
earth.nullschool.net

Text is:

#Weather and #climate data shown on this website and countless others are at risk.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (#NOAA) is the U.S. agency responsible for global weather #forecasting, #hurricane #prediction, #ocean #observation, and many other services vital to public safety. Its #satellites, #supercomputers, and research teams provide essential #data that help us understand our #planet and #protect #lives.

On February 27, the new U.S. administration initiated mass firings at NOAA. These actions are #unethical and deeply #disruptive to the talented #scientists and #engineers who dedicate themselves to the public good. The firings, along with expected budget cuts, have serious implications for the availability and #quality of #WeatherForecasts produced by the #UnitedStates. They must be reversed immediately.

Much of the data on this website is downloaded directly from NOAA's servers. In this environment of uncertainty, access could be #disrupted at any time. While I'll strive to keep all features on this website functional and switch to alternative data sources if necessary, some datasets have no substitute if they go offline.

If this concerns you, speak up. Share on #SocialMedia. And if you're in the U.S., contact your representatives.

@chbmeyer Dann kam die Kehrtwende und Debian 12 wurde wieder unterstützt. Seit Monaten klappt die Installation per Iserv aber nicht mehr. Bin in wöchentlichem Kontakt mit dem Support. Angeblich liegt es am veralteten Installer. Zeitl. Horizont der Problembehebung kann nicht gegeben werden. Ich geb die Hoffnung aber nicht auf, zumal wir aktuell 50 Laptops haben, die kein Win11 packen. #Linux saves #Laptop #Lives 🤟 (2/2)

— Let’s be clear: Being #gay is a perfectly #normal part of the human experience. Being a #Republican and/or #religious, however, is #dangerous, #harmful to #society, #abnormal, and utterly #immoral.

These practices hurt #society by promoting #unfoundedbeliefs, #discouraging #criticalthinking, and is used to #justify #harming others. Religion fosters reliance on #dogma over #reason, hinders #societalprogress, and #serves as #levers for the #exercise of #power and #control over #followers #lives
