WE HAVE TO DO BOTH. SAVE THE PEOPLE THAT WOULD OTHERWISE DIE *RIGHT NOW* AND PREVENT FUTURE DEATHS

[NYC Emergency Management @nycemergencymgt]

👶 If you care for young children, the next few days call for extra attention. Make a plan now and be ready to put it into action on Wednesday. The hottest stretch is Wednesday through the weekend, with the heat index potentially exceeding 100. Children heat up faster than adults and do not always recognize when they are in trouble, so the adults around them have to make the call. Keep kids hydrated with frequent water 💧, even before they ask. Move play indoors or into the shade during the hottest hours from late morning through early evening, and dress little ones in light, breathable clothing.

☀️ Check that playground surfaces and equipment are not scorching before letting children touch them. 🚗 Never leave a child in a parked car, not even for a minute, where temperatures turn deadly in minutes.

For daycare and childcare providers: shift outdoor activities to early morning, keep rooms cool and air-conditioned, and watch every child for flushed skin, fussiness, dizziness, or a lack of energy, which can be early signs of heat illness.

If a child has hot dry skin, becomes confused, or faints, call 911 immediately.

NYCEM coordinates the city's heat response for every New Yorker, and the youngest among us depend on all of us the most. Cooling centers will be across all five boroughs beginning Wednesday if you need a cool place for your family. Keep the kids in your care safe this week. https://t.co/04ULpqxfIY

so mad having grown up in the “we really can stop climate change!” era to now being firmly in the “hmm i guess we gotta figure out how to live alongside climate disaster 🥴” era. good stuff !!

If you happen to be anywhere in Los Angeles, heed what public health officials are telling you. The smoke is horrible. Keep your place closed. Run an air purifier if you have one. Find an N95+ mask if you have to go outside. If you have asthma or COPD, be extra careful.

Going for the CUNY dunk is a nice example of why it's risky to try to be a smug elitist about something you don't really understand: https://t.co/29fOXRGjkh

As someone who only performs well at the last minute on deadlines deadlines I identify with the New York Knicks

This kind of deadline poetry is probably a dying art but when it’s good it’s really good

NEW YORK FOREVER
WE DID THIS TOGETHER
THE CITY'S ALIVE

How it feels to write, “that is beyond the scope of this article”

[Chase Madar @ChaseMadar]

Since 2023, @JonHaidt’s university has boarded off public space, banned student groups, expanded “hate speech” codes and effectively censored student graduation speeches while the professor has been quiet as a mouse. This pop-psych Tartuffe is not a supporter of free speech.

The EPA's independent science arm did groundbreaking research to save lives. It studied fertility, asthma, wildfires, drinking water, climate change etc etc

In just one year, it has been almost completely dismantled

Of 1500 scientists, only 124 remain

Previous scholars have argued that it is so over. In this paper, however, I posit that we are so back

[jbolina jolie @pastapilled]

I suppose what easter is teaching us is that it has to be so over before we're so back

sorry for harping on this but the problem of “knowing what you want to say but not how to say it” often means you haven’t yet figured out what you want to say. if you turn to an LLM to help organize loose thoughts into prose, you’re outsourcing your cognition to a machine

[Michael O’Brien @DrOBrienMD]

I can’t stop thinking about all the kids in Tehran breathing hydrocarbons and all the negative health outcomes they’ll have for decades to come.

All from bombs funded by our taxes.
