Extreme winds from the eyewall of #Dorian in excess of 180 mph will affect the Abaco Islands during the next few hours. TAKE COVER NOW! THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND LIFE-THREATENING SITUATION. Move immediately to the safe room in your shelter. https://t.co/tW4KeFW0gB pic.twitter.com/mr15oGasxH

Take a minute to think about what it must be like to withstand 150+mph winds for more than 36 hours.
I don’t just mean physically…I’m talking mentally as well. That takes a toll.Really hoping our neighbors to the east in the #Bahamas are safe when all is said & done. #Dorian

The Sky Dancing banner headline uses a snippet from a work by artist Tashi Mannox called 'Rainbow Study'. The work is described as a" study of typical Tibetan rainbow clouds, that feature in Thanka painting, temple decoration and silk brocades". dakinikat was immediately drawn to the image when trying to find stylized Tibetan Clouds to represent Sky Dancing. It is probably because Tashi's practice is similar to her own. His updated take on the clouds that fill the collection of traditional thankas is quite special.
You can find his work at his website by clicking on his logo below. He is also a calligraphy artist that uses important vajrayana syllables. We encourage you to visit his on line studio.

I won’t post anything about the mass killing in Texas yesterday. I can’t. Except. Traumatizes. A 17 month baby, shot in the face:
Stay safe JJ. I heard that poor little girl is going to be okay, physically at least.
The eyewall on that hurricane is so precise it looks like a technical drawing! The sign of a strong hurricane. And given how slow-moving it is, it’s going to spend plenty of time over warm open water getting even stronger. What’s the theoretical max for hurricanes? :boggle: Hope all our Skydancers in the area are and stay safe!
My god.
So glad he fucked over the Poles to stay here and golf and stay on top of things …

Hey, at least he named one of the US states.
Someone please ship him off to the Bahamas to throw paper towels at Dorian.
The National Weather Service corrected Trump. Now I bet he’s going to fire their director and cut their funding.
I was trying to find which dementias / neurological conditions are associated with that weird forward overbalanced stance of his. The likeliest fit seemed to be vascular dementia. Which is presumably advancing nicely if he no longer even knows where Alabama is?
Anyway, just wondering if my guesses are in the ballpark??
Meaning whether my guesses *could be* in the ballpark. Obviously, he’d need to have an actual doctor look at him, and it seems like he hasn’t seen one of those in decades.
Happy Southern Decadence!!
