It's like jumping into a marathon fresh at mile 25 and then rolling your ankle every 100 feet.

Seeing so many tiktoks of people with the means to evacuate the Tampa area but choosing to stay anyway is infuriating. A lot of these people have young children and pets who will be in grave danger through no choice of their own because mommy and daddy want to hold down the fort over a few bottles of wine until the storm surge reaches their first floor gutters. Our risk/reward analysis as a country is so beyond broken that it's hard for me to comprehend.

When this shit happens, you do whatever you possibly can to get a few miles out of the direct path or at least to a shelter not right on the coast, because if you don't, there's a very real chance that you die. If I couldn't drive for whatever reason, I would leash up the dog, stuff my favorite things into a backpack, and start walking. If you have gas in your tank, get in your car and drive as far north or south and inland as you can. Better to sleep in your car in a parking garage than die. There is nothing I can do to save my house from a category 3 hurricane while the hurricane is happening, there is zero reason for me to hang around. People would rather flip a coin on a terrifying death for their entire family than subject themselves to an uncomfortable situation for a few days.

I wish Kamala was just 10% as cool as Elon thinks she is

Have you ever noticed that the venn diagram of people who think anthropogenic climate change is a hoax and the people who think a shadowy cabal of global elites have a top secret hurricane generator is a circle?

Everywhere around the gulf coast is going to be uninsurable within the next decade. This will be happening more and more frequently as time goes on.

I thought it was pretty fool hardy a month ago when I saw a bunch of news articles asking "is the 2024 hurricane season a dud?" Bro, there will be no more "dud" hurricane seasons, it's a matter of when we get smoked, not if.

I have prepared myself to be ex(cis)ed for the good of my trans comrades

Make America Evil Again vs In This House, We Believe In Evil

I'm coming down with some kind of cold. You know when you get a tickle like you have to sneeze and it gets like 95% of the way there and then goes away? And your eyes get all watery and your nose stuffs up? That's been every waking moment of my day when I haven't been sneezing, which is at least every five minutes. Not having a good time but at least that and nasal congestion are my only symptoms right now.

Incredible that he just kind of tried to re-integrate like nothing ever happened after the mutiny incident, but I guess once you do something like that and you're an international political figure it's impossible to make yourself disappear and you're probably going to get got regardless of what you do. RIP to a true madlad.
