@seanbala But will it? The massive flooding far inland due to a freak Hurricane #Helene in North Carolina didn't seem to have much of an impact, despite clear links to climate change. Nor the Texas grid crisis from a few years ago.
Grew up partly in Kansas myself so certainly understand the challenge in red America.

A great and well facilitated interview between two SE Asian writers and Nazry Bahrawi, musing on how even in the same region we have so many differences and similarities.
Samuel Caleb Wee, an Anglophone Singaporean (like me) had his poetry collection translated by the Vietnamese writer Quyên Nguyễn-Hoàng.
Samuel says, "I feel like a key part of growing up Singaporean means accepting that your tongue will always be thoroughly forked through with other languages—my own mouth shapeshifts about five times a day, depending on the room. I’ve also never been comfortable with writing strictly in the Anglophone.."
This perfectly resonates with me. I am very (most) comfortable reading and writing in English, but also feel the same tug of the other languages that feel more like 'home'

For over half a year, my computer often froze in the afternoon (necessitating a reboot) and I never knew why. I couldn’t find it in the reliability history or event viewer. Today I saw the error flash up before everything went dark: #Keybase crashed.
@lightweight @airshipper The flip side of that is the company had such a vast reserve of capital that it shrug off defeat in mobile then buy its way to be a successful fast follower behind AWS in cloud even if it now appears to be failing once more (this time in AI).
