"Free will is a myth. #Religion is a joke. We are all pawns, controlled by something greater: #Memes. The DNA of the soul. They shape our will. They are the culture. They are everything we pass on."

This is some video I took earlier, out of the window of our home. It is like this every day these days, so many clouds. It's pretty much always drizzling and then we have bands of clouds that pass through. We have these really tough dragonflies here that are somehow able to fly in this, you can see them passing through
Weather forecasts: Our first line of defence against climate risks
#ClimateChange is no longer a distant concern for #Bhutan—it is here, shaping our daily lives. #Glaciers are retreating at an alarming rate, glacial lakes are swelling, and our once-predictable #monsoon rains have become erratic. For a nation committed to remaining #CarbonNeutral, these shifts pose a serious threat.

The consequences were felt by people on every continent…. #Wildfires fueled by #heat & #drought raged through #Brazil’s #Pantanal, a vital #wetland known to store vast amounts of #carbon. A turbocharged #monsoon triggered #landslides that killed hundreds of people in #India’s #Kerala state. The #Atlantic #Ocean saw its earliest Category 5 #hurricane on record, while deadly #floods have wreaked havoc from #Italy to #Pakistan to #Nigeria to #China.
The perfect film lineup. Who’s in for a night of laughs, chills, and maybe a few tears?

The lavender blossom.... The Most Beautiful flower is a heart warming poem that reminds us to pause from our busy schedules and take time to smell...

Coming now to the second province in #Pakistan affected by the rains. Uptil 1st Aug 2024, 24 people had died and hundreds of families made homeless by the rains.
"Pakistan usually receives 255mm of rain each month", #Lahore received 356mm in THREE HOURS. Don't have data on rain in #KP though.
Its times like these I miss the old civic space that was #twitter.
#Lahore was submerged while the provinces of #Punjab and #KP were deluged by #Monsoon #rains
356mm or a foot and a half of rain fell in THREE HOURS across the city.
45 people died and 132 injured across the province alone.

First big #Rain of the #Monsoon in #Lahore floods the city, 44-yr record broken
A foot of rain fell in just 3 hours early in the morning, houses, hospitals flooded
My own family home, despite being raised from the street, is under half a foot of water. This has NEVER happened before.
And theres nothing we can do for now...
Will update the thread as more media reports online.
