These graphs show the total collapse of snowpack numbers for California over the past few weeks (dark blue line), along with the average snowpack (light blue area), for the state, and northern/central/southern California.
California snowpack is now at only 27% of normal, as heat waves have turned the little #snow California received to #water or vapor.

Fedifriends, I need your help. I occasionally need to use a screen reader with Google Docs. Is anybody here familiar with how to use GDocs’ in-built accessibility tools? I could really use a hand.

It's been a few years since I drew this. I still stand by it.

Debian is evidently "discussing" complying with California's age verification law. Desperately hope it doesn't go further than that. I don't want to have to switch distros.

Why the hell, with an enormous electoral mandate, has Michelle Wu abandoned her progressive priorities for Boston? I have ideas: https://write.as/brendanhalpin/whats-wrong-with-michelle-wu

Trump admin's:🚨suspension of certain #immigrants' work authorization renewals is sidelining ~1000s of foreign-born doctors.

Policy:🚨could worsen access to care in a #health sys already facing physician shtgs. ~25% of the US physician WF are IMMs. Rural communities esp depend on IMM drs to fill WF gaps.

The change has affected work authorization renewals, green card processing & naturalization.

The Pentagon's revised policy adds mostly meaningless window dressing while retaining the core constitutional violation — subjecting journalists to punishment for doing their jobs.

It is not a good faith effort to comply with the judge's order.

I hate being stuck shopping at CVS. Their tech is slow and buggy, their privacy policy is creepy, and the way they treat their workers is abysmal.

Yay; the new DHS secretary is an unstable monster, just like the last one.

I need tips for apartment hunting while COVID cautious!

I’m losing my housing and the stress of it has utterly destroyed my baseline. It’s so difficult to find safe housing as a disabled individual.

I’ve finally found a few units to view, but my concern is if I wear my respirator I can’t adequately assess smells and triggers like mold or VOCs.

My MCAS is very severe. I usually know quite quickly if I’m going to react to a space … but I can’t always tell right away when I’m masked up.

No one is living in the units so they will be empty and it’s just me and one other person going to the viewing.

If I can convince that person to wear an N95 and keep their distance… do you think it’s safe if I remove my mask for a few minutes?

I basically just want to smell around things like the hvac, under sinks, anywhere there’s plumbing and the walls in case there’s been new paint.

I know it might be moderately risky but it would be catastrophic to get locked into a year lease somewhere making me sick.

Appreciate any tips if there’s something I’m not thinking of!
