Cyclone Amphan hit India and Bangladesh. It was the largest in 283 years. It destroyed anything and everything in its path. People were evacuated, but according to reports, 80 are dead. It was the strongest recorded cyclone in the Bay of Bengal. Kolkata, a metro city. Destroyed. Odisha, Bengal, Bangladesh all affected.
Where is the outrage and concern. I found just one news website doing live updates. And 5 reports in total.
I don't know what to say.
I'm thankful and grateful my friend and her family are safe.
The poor are affected. Flooding, loss of homes, infrastructure, all lost.
Sunderbans destroyed.
Relief efforts are there.
Nothing more to say. Not talking about this seemed wrong. But I'm not a hypocrite. I really wouldn't have known much about it if I didn't have a friend there and actively searched the news for reports on it. Or the "woke" accounts I follow on Instagram didn't talk about it. I wouldn't have known about it.
And that is sad in itself.

So yeah, the worst has passed. The weather's still gloomy outside but the storm itself was gone sometime during the night.
As someone who has spent all her life in the tropics and more or less near the coast, I am no stranger to storms or even cyclones. But this was......not normal. Normal storms don't break my neighbour's bricked boundary wall, for example.
I am lucky and privileged to still have electricity (thanks to our underground wiring) which unfortunately cannot be said for 90% of the affected areas. The mobile network here has been erratic since last evening and I am typing this out furiously before the next zone-out. Our dish antenna surprisingly survived this ordeal (seriously how???) although it is unable to catch any signal. All things considered, my situation could have been much, much worse.
The southern districts, especially the rurals and suburbs are devastated. We still don't know the exact picture of destruction or the death toll (last I saw, it was 20) because entire districts are just cut off from the rest of the state in terms of communication and electricity. What we know for sure is that the picture, when it emerges, will not be pretty. There's a lot of cleaning up.
Thank you @llywela @erytria @talvenhenki @smhalltheurlsaretaken @highfunctioningflailgirl @salw0109 @procrastinatorproject @moonwest @incurablescribbler @thelaithlyworm @sternenblumen and everyone else who prayed for us. I am truly touched by your support.

My city just had a category 2 cyclone that left a trail of destruction in its wake. Most of the people don't have water or electricity and it is absolutely impossible to maintain social distancing in this situation.
I don't know how much more we can take.

How to pass your time following a cyclone/hurricane.
💛Organise/Clean your house: What better time to get things organised, throw away unnecessary items (or give away to charity) than now? Having a clean space will help brighten up the mood.
💛Clean up the water: There must be some damp places in your house or water clogged areas.  
💛Read a book: Make yourself a  warm cup of tea/coffee/hot choc, sit down, relax and read a nice book, we have time to waste! 
💛Look out for others: people everywhere need help, ask around see how they are, try to help them if you can.
💛Spend time with those that live with you: Play board games, bake together, talk to each other, be there for eachother.
💛The animals need help: if you have any stray dogs or cats in your locality, let them in if possible, give them food and shelter.
💛Play a game: There are a ton fun games out there so it just depends what you��re into! Some of my fav choices: The Sims, Planet Zoo, City Skyline... 
💛 Keep up with the news, stay safe and informed.
Realistically all we can do right now is wait. Wait for it to get better. Sooner of later it will go back to normal.
