Poor people bear the cost of climate change in insidious ways, like disinvestment in communities. "Floods and hurricanes don’t discriminate, but for many years, the approach to building infrastructure in Harris County prized ‘shovel-readiness’ and property value over the people hit first & hardest.”
The National Weather Service is awesome. Today’s forecast discussion starts “The radar depicted widespread moderate rain, but only light rain
reached the surface. What`s the deal?! Was it magic?! Nope...even

Scarecrow of Romney Marsh! I loved that series! Haven’t been able to find it anywhere to buy.
After a couple of beverages patrons are guaranteed to be more fluent.

“It does not matter what a council member's legal opinion is. There’s only one opinion that matters, and that’s the governor’s” is an absolutely absurd thing for a mayor to say. (And this is why Whitmire is the Fetterman of Houston).

Someone is confused, but I don’t think it’s who he thinks it is.
“Stick to matters of morality.” Not like war and shit. Interesting though to hear JD Vance of all people say that if policy and the Church are in conflict, it’s no big deal.
Would this be the same Texas House that once considered dumping its speaker because he was Jewish share.google/hwhsCqjHPLIY... and whose GOP mega donor once said only Christians should hold leadership positions www.texastribune.org/2024/04/04/t...?
There’s going to be a lot of unfortunate FAFO if FDA abdicates its responsibility to ensure that drugs are safe and effective. (Remember, insulin is a peptide and it’s natural. It’s a critical therapeutic, and can be deadly if used wrong).
Finish of the Femmes just now was also amazing.
Was rooting for Tadej but Wout a race! Could not have been more exciting.
Hot take: The NBA has a big problem. If winning games isn’t important enough for your best players to play, either there are too many games or the incentives are perverse.
