Not sure what the science is between 2 images with no source or timestamp and nearly 20 years of technological improvement between them is but this isn’t the peak of Katrina
Katrina ultimately reached its peak strength as a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir–Simpson scale on August 28. Its maximum sustained winds reached 175 mph (280 km/h) and its pressure fell to 902 mbar (hPa; 26.63 inHg), ranking it among the strongest ever recorded in the Gulf of Mexico.
It probably refers to its stats at landfall
Katrina weakened to a Category 3 before making landfall along the northern Gulf Coast, first in southeast Louisiana (sustained winds: 125mph) and then made landfall once more along the Mississippi Gulf Coast (sustained winds: 120mph). Katrina finally weakened below hurricane intensity late on August 29th over east central Mississippi.
But power doesn’t equal damage for weather
[Katrina] is the costliest hurricane to ever hit the United States, surpassing the record previously held by Hurricane Andrew from 1992. In addition, Katrina is one of the five deadliest hurricanes to ever strike the United States

You’re not wrong but this image is a parody
Counterpoint: what?
Hobbies have always been restricted to those who can afford or at least (as is far too often the case) finance them
Will an urbanist shift make these things less accessible as larger homes are torn down and replaced or drive down prices by hoovering up those currently forced into larger homes than they need? If I knew with impunity, I’d be too busy running my real estate to respond
I run distro, btw

Plot twist: neither of them is sleeping
Yeah, more or less both
Just burn the “dangerous books” obviously…
This isn’t a “question for the community” nor even a thinly veiled attempt at raising awareness: it’s the epitome of self-righteousness

Just one more chair to go…
Nobody can answer this question for you but I think to the countless examples of people not “getting out while they can” who are now–or were until their death–forever trapped in a bad situation that people today forget wasn’t that bad even within living memory
Is it right for you? I don’t know
Is it cowardly to let a sense of national loyalty compel you to be exposed to the mechanisms of government wielded by untrustworthy actors? No, and anybody saying otherwise is lying to you at best; lying to themselves at worst

The moment I realized the most one can gain from (pre-buyout)Twitter is the respect of other Twitter users, posting anything immediately became a chore
