A top hurricane forecast is here, and it brings bad news: Danger is already brewing Forecasters worry about warm water in the Atlantic Ocean where hurricanes form and the predicted absence of an El Niño.

Check out this article from USA TODAY:

And with fewer NOAA National Hurricane Center employees, their forecasting will be hampered. But MAGA cultists are fine with this.

I am so tired of β€œAnne Frank died of typhus, I.e, β€˜natural causes’.” Sure, deniers, how β€˜bout if you are limited to 800 kcal/day, worked 3000 kcal/day, and placed in crowded, unsanitary conditions and see if you suffer a death from β€˜natural causes’ .

I would appreciate being added. I am a Senior Professional Wetland Scientist by the Society of Wetland Scientists but I have a keen interest in many areas of ecology and island biogeography. I have BS and MS degrees in zoology and a coauthored paper from years ago.

Sorry, I can’t support exotic species, even beautiful ones, as these are exotic in the US.

The answer:
- People on medicare or medicaid that need insulin
- People with EVs who travel
- LGBQT people
- People who need cheap labor for their work
- Young people who will be stuck with the national debt
- Anyone who buys goods

Question: Which MAGA voters cut off their noses to own the libs?

Is it just me or does everyone on Bluesy, especially males, get followed by babes that have no specific interest other than my Y chromosome.

Florida adopts new 'Gulf of America' name The name change reflects President Donald Trump's order to create "names that honor American greatness."

Hey Newsweek, get your facts straight. Although the Natives in Alaska did call the big mountain in Alaska Denali, that was also the official name by the State of Alaska and it was at their request that Obama changed the federal name to Denali.

Anecdotally, Emerald Ash Borers have scoffed at Michigan winters for 20+ years and now that they are in southern states, I can’t see them being too hardshipped by this cold weather.

Suck-up Ron. Gonna spend big big money to change state maps and this is going to make for some interesting conversations between airline pilots and air traffic controllers.

Indigo Buntings are awesome, but I gotta say the Painted Bunting is even more awesome.

That’s probably a caiman in Costa Rica. Here in Florida, USA, I don’t think alligators have agreements with any other animal.

Watching the inauguration to β€œMonitor Trump” is like pediatric oncology: I’m glad someone is doing it, but I’m not up to it.

What are the odds? Everything just fell into place for all of us. Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.

... And I hope Anita Bryant never does one of my songs... I can only assume Jimmy Buffett hated her too.

RIP Jimmy Buffett.
