https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/news/media-advisory-noaa-forecasts-severe-solar-storm-media-availability-scheduled-friday-may-10 - MEDIA ADVISORY: NOAA FORECASTS SEVERE SOLAR STORM; MEDIA AVAILABILITY SCHEDULED FOR FRIDAY, MAY 10

https://www.reddit.com/r/spaceporn/comments/1co442c/noaa_just_issued_the_severe_g4_level_geomagnetic/ - Friday Night’s Aurora Forecast - if you’re north of the red line on this map, you may be able to see the waves of aurora borealis on this map.

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/world-hit-geomagnetic-storm-chaos-32777801 - there’s not a map I can find for where the Northern Lights will be visible in upper Europe/Asia, or where the internet is likely to be affected by the geomagnetic storm activity. But if you have SkyLink internet, you’ll probably already have noticed patchy service.

My phone just tried to tell me that it doesn’t recognize my face …? Technology is so weird, y’all.

I’m trying to not get distracted too much to do journaling but honestly it’s not going that well? Anyway, ( feelings )

I’m going to do a big mental health resource post soon, since May is the month for Mental Health Awareness. If you have a link for me, drop it in comments plz? Or direct folks that way when the post goes up. Or ask a mental health question now and I will go read the recent research on it and get back to you if there’s an answer. Let’s be as mentally healthy as we can manage, and we’ll get through this together.
