#ClimateDiary. Already been a wobbly few days, floods, hurricanes, wildfires and all; now I read the opening paragraph of this new article by key climate scientists and communicators, including @MichaelEMann and @rahmstorf
😢😢😢

“We are on the brink of an irreversible climate disaster. This is a global emergency beyond any doubt. Much of the very fabric of life on Earth is imperiled. We are stepping into a critical and unpredictable new phase of the climate crisis.”

These people in the #LNP must have rocks in their head ... #termination of pregnancy is a fundamental part of #WomensRights & #WomensHealth and to even to have a conversation about reversing these rights in #Queensland is a betrayal.

Labor health minister #ShannonFentiman said:

Jann Stuckey doesn’t believe him, and she knows the LNP and David Crisafulli better than anyone. And so if she doesn’t believe him, then I don’t think anyone in Queensland can believe him.

So those Queenslanders that fought hard to get voluntary assisted dying as part of our health scheme, should be really worried today. And all of those women and girls who have fought hard for years to see legal and safe and affordable access to termination of pregnancy should be really scared today.

And here it comes … any woman voting for the #LNP must appreciate that they are opening the door to the criminalisation of pregnancy termination ! #KAP will raise the bill to criminalise abortion in Qld "quick as you like" leader Rob Katter has vowed. A Qld #LNP government would have a conscience vote on such an issue. David Crisafulli continues to refuse to answer if he'd deny it to members #qldvotes

The Australian newspaper revealed this week that Scenic Rim MP #JonKrause told a candidates’ forum that “we need to ensure that there are enough people in the parliament to be able to **#repeal** those laws or to make significant amendments”.

Guardian Australia can reveal that another MP, the retiring rightwinger #MarkRobinson, told a Christian podcast in August there “are no doubt corrections that will happen over time”.

Robinson said the LNP’s core issues – including youth crime, the cost of living, housing and health services – were “the big things the election will swing on” but in future changes could be made in line with the party’s broader platform.

“I see our values are very firmly anchored in **"family values"** ,” Robinson said.

Where do we get these reprehensible politicians?

Florida #Republican Demands #Hurricane Aid She Tried to Block

“Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna demanded more #FEMA funding for #Florida, just weeks after she voted against a bill that provided $20 billion for federal emergency funds.

As #HurricaneMilton approaches the Florida coastline, #Luna has waded into a growing spat between Vice President #KamalaHarris and Sanctimonious #DeSantis.”

Our next #Autumn #MysteryAuthor is another follower of minimalism – at least when it comes to the desk… note the order of the #bookshelf right next to the chaos of the #box on the floor…

An #author poised on the boundary between #order and #chaos then. But who could it be?

The revenge of the rivers - nepalitimes.com/news/the-reven… "One week after deadly floods, Nepalis pick up the pieces to discover that the disaster was mostly manmade" - to do with unregulated quarrying and sand-mining in its catchment and much less with heavy monsoon rains.

"The main cause of the massive death and destruction in both the Nakkhu and Rosi valleys last week was because the rivers were forced to flow through narrow channels, and the debris-filled waters swept into the populated floodplains."

How do I upgrade postgresql to -16 on Linux Mint, which sees -12 as the maximum available version?

Is that causing this?

react is listed by your project with version 18.3.1 (p68bdc), which doesn't satisfy what emoji-mart-lazyload and other dependencies request (but they have non-overlapping ranges!).

What must I do to get back on track? Use a different OS? Use a different version of Mint? Re-install? Is there a magic incantation for -16?

My server's down.

Knock knock. Anybody home?

Anyone?

I have zero experience with these required apps that aren't of the correct version.

What do I do?

Anyone out there? Hello? Hello?
