Some #survival lessons from watching/collecting Maui #wildfire social media videos (for a client) this week.
Evacuate early if you are worried. Many survivors with videos made it out as their neighbors were waiting for someone to tell them to leave, or were saying "the fire department will put it out".
If you are in the path of smoke, you will soon be in the path of embers, and then you will soon be in the fire. Smoke = get out!
(continued).
Morning Folks! I've been spending some time playing that other new survival game that does not involve catching them all... #Enshrouded. This morning I share some of my very early thoughts about the game after having played around six hours.
Pandering to a lack of tenacity in society has become acceptable. Not universal as those with cancer & chronic illness show great determination. However, when it comes to supporting those suffering in #wars & public #health we read "does the #public still have the appetite for" &
"#pandemic fatigue" & there's acceptance of giving up or not bothering.
If those who went through #WWll had done this en masse many of us would never have been born. Has shared #survival instinct been lost?
Tips on staying safe in Winter Conditions and when the power goes out, from the National Weather Service.
If Your Heat Goes Out
Close off unneeded rooms to avoid wasting heat.
Stuff towels or rags in cracks under doors.
Close blinds or curtains to keep in some heat.
Eat and drink. Food provides the body with energy for producing its own heat. Drinks lots of water and other non-caffeinated, non-alcholohic drinks to prevent dehydration. Cold air is very dry.
Wear layers of loose-fitting, lightweight, warm clothing. Remove layers to avoid overheating, perspiration and subsequent chill.
🧵 Going to start a little thread of games I'm looking forward to this year that are ALLEDGEDLY going to be playable in some state (including early access/alpha). I typically go for #sandbox#survival and #mmorpg#EarlyAccess Maybe I'll be able to revisit this later and see which ones actually came out or that I was able to try!
I'm trying to sign up for men's #cooking#lessons here in #Japan to placate my busy #Japanese wife. While she was away, I made this cheese omelette; beginner's luck! A #community center has me on a waiting list, or I could spill for more upscale lessons. It is astonishing and unJapanese that single-person #households are approaching 40%. #Single#men of all ages have a poor #diet, which exacerbates the #lifespan gap with #women. #Loneliness is also a #health hazard. Many men are #widowed, never #married, or their #wives#divorce them, often after the children become independent and the husband is useless around the house after a busy career. Single men, or married men interested in cooking or helping their wives, possibly fearing their wives' pent-up anger, can find #companionship as well as #survival#skills in cooking lessons. Men's classes start from zero; women #cook and #socialize.
For immigrant & 2nd generation #AsianAmericans concealing one’s background can sometimes be a means of #survival, experts have said. New data shows just how prevalent this phenomenon is in the U.S.
According to a report released last week by the #PewResearchCenter - 1 in 5 #Asian Americans have hidden parts of their culture from non-Asians at some point in their lives.
"This planetary boundaries framework update finds that six of the nine boundaries are transgressed, suggesting that Earth is now well outside of the safe operating space for humanity. The transgression level has increased for all boundaries earlier identified as overstepped."
Whenever I make fish fingers for tea I remember a new mum asking me if I knew you could just make them yourself? I was already on to my second child and knew that was very much not the point of fish fingers! #parenting#survival
I wouldn't recommend it at the moment, but maybe the game is totally for you? I spent two hours with it and tried my hand at editing it down to something more watchable.
I was one of the 400 people laid off from Okta last Thursday, and one of the ways I’m keeping busy is writing a series of articles on surviving layoffs (this is my 5th!) and what I’m doing. Follow me on my new adventure!
That thing where you're like "16+ hour days, every day... I seriously don't know anyone who works as hard as I do now" and you wait for them to remind you that someone has it harder and they are like "yeah I don't know anyone who works as hard as you either"
I made a Slatt's Rescue paracord belt. I needed a narrower belt for my hiking pants. It has about 49 feet of paracord. I was worried I needed more paracord but the belt ended up being 58 inches long. It will be easy to shorten though. It currently weighs in at 6 ounces. Slightly less than my leather belt.
Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku? – Episode 3 – The Suspicious Mushroom People Village
In the last episode, the girls finally arrive at Higashi-Agano, and the people with mushrooms on their heads greet them. You may think they are friendly, but there is something that Akira, the girl who gets into arguments with Reimi, is very suspicious of them, and probably for a good reason.
Believe it or not, I find it fascinating how these […]
"We Survive Together:
Interviews with Organizations Fighting against Disaster Ableism and Injustices"
"Human-intensified, natural disasters do not hit everyone equally.
Communities of color, disabled and sick, working class and poor, queer and trans, immigrants, older individuals, and in geopolitically disinvested regions are disproportionately impacted harder by disasters."
What game is too terrifying to finish for you?
