#Welt! Bist du noch da?

#Dire #Straits

An die musste ich, im #Urlaub, öfters denken. Wenn auch nicht diese Weite und die hübschen #Berge im #Hintergrund, so gibt’s in der #Grafschaft #Bentheim doch noch einige #Telefonmasten an denen man entspannt entlang radelt.

Imo the only relevant #species definition for #deextintion is the ecological one. In other contexts this definition is absolutely silly, because it can't distinguish between a #bat and a #bird if they hunt #insects - it defines a species by their ecological #niche.

Under that definition, an elephant with hair is in fact a #mammoth because it's can live in tundra and serve as an umbrella species capable of shaping an entire #ecosystem, serving a unique role in it.

A #dire #wolf is not actually deextinct if it's not serving the ecosystem the way the OG dire wolf used to.

Weekend storms kill 22 as severe weather heads toward East Coast

Swarms of #tornadoes tore through the southern Plains, Ozarks, Tennessee Valley and Mid-Atlantic on Saturday and Sunday,
claiming at least 22 lives and causing widespread damage.

The storms were continuing east into Memorial Day, with additional severe storms possible along the East Coast,
while Texas braced for storms containing large, damaging #hail.

Hardest hit over the weekend were Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Kentucky,
where multiple “large and extremely dangerous tornadoes” carved paths of damage.

A #dire tornado #emergency
— in essence the highest-tier tornado warning that the National Weather Service can issue
— was hoisted in Caldwell, Hopkins and Lyon Counties, Kentucky on Sunday evening.

Four storm-related deaths were confirmed in the Bluegrass State.
