A DELICATELY HAUNTING THAI novel unfolds like a late-night story from its protagonist, a monk in his 90s telling tales of his youth in the remote jungles of the late 19th century, where tigers and crocodiles lurked in the darkness. Stunning. A MINUS

Certain places are at increased risk of heat-humidity stress as we continue to heat. Many of these places are home to hundreds of millions of people. Here is what is currently playing out in Thailand. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-29/thailand-reels-under-heat-wave-as-some-regions-set-new-record

Instrument readings (latest 5-year average)

🌡️ +1.3ºC above preindustrial

What happens to these places when we cross 1.5ºC permanently in the near future?

Amnesty International calls on Thai authorities to drop charges against two young activists accused of lèse-majesté and "computer crimes"

“Today’s indictment shows that Thai authorities are continuing to weaponize spurious charges to silence critical voices of young people who want to speak about their human rights,” said Amnesty International’s Thailand Researcher Chanatip Tatiyakaroonwong.

Walking around Sriracha to get breakfast this morning, some 60%-90% of folks in mostly respirators. It was just the Thai New Year's celebrations here over the weekend, maybe folks are seeing an uptick in sickies and responding appropriately, or just taking a simple effective precaution to avoid illness.

Fwiw, I've encountered very few coughers or wheezers in shared indoor spaces compared to what's been normalized in the US. Go figure 😒
