Due to the recent actions of this platform’s malevolent overlord, this will be my last post on X/Twitter/whatever it’s called this week.
I mean seriously, y’all… fuck this guy:

I really try to give people grace when they work in the travel industry. But y’all… these AA flight attendants chose violence today. Zero chill to be found. 😬
We root for our teams as if it's life and death. But when the game actually devolves into life and death, it suddenly makes everything else seem so damned trivial.
If you're not evacuating, consider the following:
- If your street floods over in a bad storm, you should probably start sandbagging.
- Put important docs, meds, and valuables in waterproof storage.
- Be ready to move your supplies (including fuel and generators) off the ground.
Putting on my weather nerd hat for a minute here:
There has been a lot of talk about #HurricaneIan being just like Charley. I really encourage you NOT to make that comparison. TL;DR= Places that normally don't flood WILL PROBABLY FLOOD, and you should plan accordingly.
Charley was intense and unpredictable, but it was a very SMALL and FAST MOVING storm. It was too small and fast to build a significant storm surge. All the forecast models are saying Ian will be LARGER and MUCH SLOWER. That makes this both a huge WIND and SURGE/FLOODING threat.

Never thought I'd see this from #Switzerland, but extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. The Swiss should be extremely proud of their government today.
