Our primary instance is shutting down and we ended up repurposing another account however it appears that instance is unstable and may be shut down at a future date so 3rd times hopefully don't have to jump ship again for a while #introduction - Updated: 2025-08-10

We're The Weather System (Athena's Realm System), We're Trans fem, and we're an officially diagnosed autistic, bipolar and dissociative identity disorder system, we a collection of various leftist, and believe strongly in queer, and neurodiversity rights movements, we view plurality in general as neurodivergence

Our pronouns are Su/Sudo/Suselves, however She/Her/Herselves, and They/Them/Theirselves

We are most likely to toot about #Medicine, with focus on #Genetics, #Epigenetics, #Bioinformatics, and #Neuroscience giving our focus back in uni was Genetics of Human Disease, and Neuroscience but we are likely to talk about a whole range of medical topics, besides medicine we are likely to toot about #meteorology and #geology, with specific interests in #SynopticMeteorology #TropicalCyclones / #Hurricanes / #Typhoons / #TropicalStorms, #ExtratropicalCyclones, #SubtropicalCyclones, and #Tornadoes, among other topic, and we may toot about #Geology, #Minerals, and #Vulcanology, and what ever else is on our mind, we collected #MyLittlePony and are a fan of every generation of MLP, also we collect #WildManes and Radioactive stuff and play #EliteDangerous

edit extra info: [Also to note we're storm chasers, so we may occasionally post photos and media from chases, our focus is usually on Tropical Cyclones within the Australian Region Basin with mainly focus on the Coral Sea, these will usually be marked with the Tropical Cyclone and Hurricane tags]

See attached thread for System Information, System Membership 58+

Our system name is subject to change, it was previously the Athena's Realm System, however only one member, arguably two members made that decision on behalf of the entire system, without consulting us, so we're in the process of trying out system names to see which fits us best, but for the time being we will display both "Athena's Realm" and the current trialing system name so it is less confusing for those who know us by our old system name

Olivia Julianna talks about how wearily predictable natural disasters are for Texas, and also how wearily predictable is the non-response of Texas government, the non-preparation for the natural disasters.

As people still swallow the diversionary line fed to them by state Republican leaders that we shouldn't "politicize" natural disasters….

The Contrarian · How Many More Have to Die Before Texas Gets Serious About Preparedness?By Olivia Julianna
Continued thread

The worst effects of the #storm were felt in the central part of #NorthCarolina, where tens of thousands of people were without #power & at least 2 #tornadoes were confirmed, authorities said. As of early Monday, no fatalities or injuries had been reported.

#OrangeCounty, which includes #ChapelHill, declared a state of #emergency Sunday night, saying in a statement that “numerous water rescues & evacuations are underway in low-lying areas.”

#FYI #PaulBeckwith video lecture and literature review

"probably record setting year for #tornadoes in the USA. In an average year there are about 1,200 tornadoes in the US, and as of May 22nd this year there have already been 2,046 and we are only 5 months into the year."

"Already this year, we’ve had 886 tornadoes, a 35% increase over last year. Plus, hurricane season is right around the corner,too. Seems like a really ridiculous time to be sabotaging the National Weather Service, doesn’t it? But Donald Trump is doing just that."

[Indistinct Chatter] by @NewsJennifer · Tornadoes don’t take the night offBy Jennifer Schulze

There's a president who cares about people! 🙄

It's been days since deadly tornadoes ravaged three states, killing 28 people and leaving countless homes and businesses destroyed in their wake — with no acknowledgement from Donald Trump.

Help may not be coming at all, judging from how Trump blocked tornado victims in Arkansas from receiving federal recovery aid last month and rejected the state's disaster declaration.
