As someone who covers this beat, I assure you this has not happened. Not even once. Definitely not for this reason.

A reduction of the low clouds in the tropics and consequently of the albedo,is to blame for the persistence of the warm oceans and of the average air temperature.

Living losses are frequently overlooked, hindering the grieving process.
When grief isn’t about death, it’s often unseen and misunderstood. Learn about the hidden pain of living loss, so you can heal or support others grieving a non-death loss.Sharon Martin, DSW, LCSW (Psychology Today)

With several life threatening wildfires effecting Los Angeles County, please take note of some of these guidelines for evacuating. Get prepared to evacuate sooner rather than later!
Here we go again.
NWS Los Angeles:
" Elevated to Critical Fire Weather Conditions will continue through Wednesday. Moderate to locally strong Santa Ana winds will affect the typical Santa Ana Wind Corridors on Saturday to Sunday and again Monday through Wednesday. These winds combined with dry air and dry vegetation will keep the fire weather threat in the area. Continue to practice fire safety by avoiding work that creates sparks, report any smoke..."

Report on the possible source of the drone collision yesterday with a Quebec (super scooper) -- this is or has already gone to the relevant authorities. A drone operator illegally was flying around the area and ran into a firefighting plane. #PalisadesFire

Just received an evacuation warning for areas adjacent to #UCLA - looks like hillside around #Getty Museum west of 405 is under mandatory evacuation order, and north #Brentwood and #BelAir hillside east of 405 under a warning.

✨ I tried @jack's django-templated-email-md project tonight, which was easy to use and was all I needed. I tried out a few other libraries, but it checked the right boxes for me.
If you want a bit more than Django's default mail handling provides, I recommend checking it out.
I no longer have an excuse not to send emails in my projects.

Ein dickes #Danke an die, bzw einen #Admin. Mir war aufgefallen, dass bei #Diaspora keine schwarz/weiß-Bilder mehr hochgeladen werden konnten, außer in sehr stark komprimierter Form. Der Admin hat sich dann die #Nacht hingesetzt, das #Problem sondiert und behoben. Yeah. So funktioniert das.
Jetzt einen starken #Kaffee, ein paar# Bilder und ein wenig #Coldplay:
Ihr kennt #Freetube!
Bleibt senkrecht und gesund!
