CW: Swearing about idiots.
Regarding Cyclone Alfred — and any other natural disaster: if you simply 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩 put yourself in danger in order to get a first-hand view of the unfolding drama, FFS leave your kids and pets at home!
Risk your own life? Sure, whatever. Maybe your dependents won't miss you. But risking the lives of children or animals so that you can get a momentary thrill is behaviour that lies far beyond cuntish.
Grow up, stop thinking of that awesome selfie or viral video, and protect those who rely on you to be sensible in the face of danger.
