How did two hurricanes hitting Florida leave the Villages untouched?

It's in the interior. One of the things people who don't live in Florida seem to understand is that there are plenty of places that are 50 miles inland. The whole place doesn't just look like Miami. If you want an equivalent of The Villages for the ocean to destroy, might I suggest Venice or Naples.

Asheville is a lot further inland than anywhere in Florida and it got wrecked. Ain't no justice.

[–] LigOleTiberal@hexbear.net 6 points 4 months ago

I mean, some part of florida gets wrecked every single year.

No the truly cursed place is Cape Coral, FL, which is the worst thing ever created by man

[–] HarryLime@hexbear.net 43 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Ironic fact about the Villages is that they have a low carbon footprint because they're built very densely and the residents drive electric golf carts.

The architecture is so depressing though. Just a sea of terracotta-rooved strip malls.

[–] LigOleTiberal@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago

ECO-strip malls!

I am reeeeeaaly surprised those are Kamala signs

Florida is like a 49/51 state by population.

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 18 points 4 months ago

I doubt they're a majority for the neighborhood.

Xi would not hurt civillians like that. Only one country has used nukes on civillians.
He probably would not want to be on the same list as them on it.

[–] SadArtemis@hexbear.net 14 points 4 months ago

If that same old country uses nukes again (or its proxy/51st state Isntreal does), it'll be fair game though. MAD only works if the rest of humanity is willing to commit (and if it comes to it I hope they commit in full)

A giant retirement community centered around multiple golf courses

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 18 points 4 months ago

It's 5 golf clubs, 10 retirement homes and a gas station mall with a Congressional district

literal hell

The basis for possibly the funniest mr chapo ever

I believe it's where all the upper middle class white people retire to stay away from the scary browns.

There's no way this is recent. There is no god if this place, of all places, was left completely untouched by Milton.

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 19 points 4 months ago (2 children)
[–] LeZero@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I thought about them while Milton was happening, guess they were too far inland to suffer any consequences...

[–] LigOleTiberal@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

all milton did was temporarily increase the STD rate for the month. hurricane party!!!

[–] LigOleTiberal@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago
