2025 Thread of the Rains
My wife works 12 hours a week at Johnson City ISD, and that redneck place tests the flood siren every day at noon.

2025 Thread of the Rains
These camps are fairly isolated such that there's no flood sirens nearby. Maybe there's been budget cuts to the NWS. Who knows. Where my daughter is, Laity Lodge, has no cell coverage until you're back on Hwy 83. They're kind of trapped for now because you have to drive in the river to get in and out. The water has risen and the camp lost all their river toys, but the Frio there doesn't become the torrent like the Guadalupe.

JFC. My daughter works at Laity Lodge on the Frio. She has 24 hours off and was supposed to come home. That's probably off the table.

2025 Thread of the Rains
I live in River Crossing. The north end of the neighborhood has homes near the south bank of the Guadalupe. KSAT says the river there will be +34 feet later today. Those homes have to be close to getting wet. I'll set the o/u for Canyon at 9.5 feet.

He is white trash. Most of this country is white trash, but he's in a special category.

Bomb Bomb Bomb, Bomb Bomb Iran.
Impressive, but it's what they train and plan for every day. I'd expect nothing less for almost a trillion dollars a year. It's why we don't have healthcare. Still Impressive.

He's really running for POTUS? He's not even a real man. Legs and dick don't work. Sad.

My opinion is everyone is too young to remember living in a world without vaccines.

2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.
Are we going to do this every election now? Yes, yes we are. The more logical explanation is that this country is full of just awful people. It's who we are. Trump is just the symptom and manifestation of what this country is.

How is this felony allowed entry into Canada for the G7? We've got pilots who have to bid around Canada because they got a DUI 30 years ago.

Carpetbagging weasel faced smarmy little bitch, Ted Cruz
Is there anything these two clown senators do for the good of this state? We'd never have a manned space flight center, unfinished super conductor, or possibly the highland lakes if they were our leadership from yesteryear. Other than podcasts and Fox News, I'm not sure what they do all day.

Let's not do this. Elections aren't stolen. We just happen to share this land with some awful people.

He's going to have a very public fall within 18 months. Like an old man breaks hip type of fall. Playing golf isn't building leg strength.

I really hate summer. It's the worst season that we romanticized as children because we were free from school.
