New Yorkers, a storm is arriving today.
Don't travel if you don't have to. Never drive or walk through floodwater.
Call 911 if you are in danger, and report nonemergency issues to 311.
Look out for one another and stay safe.

The nonsense about #AI is just that: nonsense
Governments, corporations & vintage technophobes are making a boogieman out of AI, scapegoating it & likely human hackers impersonating it.
🚩Beware of what you ask for with multilateral, international regulation of AI.

Oxfam’s Behar is a shyster. He knows very well that UN does not dictate policy or co-opt capitalist economies. 🚩Yet, he is selling ‘take back our agency’ rhetoric to UNDERMINE #UN —paving a road to isolating marginalized groups in Global South, “look away”. There’s Anti-UN push.
Oxfam International's executive director urges world leaders to take "decisive action" on multiple crises. "The world is torn apart by the inequality emergency, the climate crisis [and] the wars all around."

Regd UN head: There’s no such thing as “feminine view” or any “ethnic view”. There are European female “Defense” Secretaries who are warmongers. War is not a male/female thing. To claim “female” touch would lead to peaceful world is SEXIST. Same for ethnicity claims—Bigotry!
