  1. I hate these fake religious fucks so much. Not having attended the camp but having heard that it's highly religious, I imagine those christian children prayed and prayed. They probably prayed someone with the state or county would arrive with help. Lotta good it did.
  2. Edit i really shouldn't post when I'm particularly annoyed
  3. Was that the, "But it was only sprinkling" response?
  4. Ah sorry. Didn't think of that - used their mailing address.
  5. Yes, just the river and immediately adjacent in the SHFA, but not all or most of the camp, right?
  6. https://www.kxan.com/weather/weather-blog/head-of-local-weather-warnings-takes-early-retirement-as-noaa-cuts-continue/ position left vacant
  7. Thanks for the pics, alexis texas. Didn't realize Camp Mystic was in a minimal risk area as designated by FEMA Flood Maps. That seems incredible based on reality. https://msc.fema.gov/portal/search?AddressQuery=2689 Highway 39%2C Hunt%2C TX 78024-3412
  8. NPR put together a timeline of what various public officials did or said they did. https://www.npr.org/2025/07/05/nx-s1-5457759/texas-floods-timeline spoilered for length
  9. You WILL NEVER guess who else is pissed.

  11. Someone should check flight tracker. Good odds the press conf was delayed because Dementia Don insisted they wait for Kristy Gnome.
  12. fwiw for anyone who doesn't have a xitter account - changing https://x.com/humerus6cents/status/1941347154884542795 to https://xcancel.com/humerus6cents/status/1941347154884542795 will show you the full tweet
  13. Following the Shoal Creek flood in 1991 Austin installed an early flood warning system. Has there been ongoing discussion/investigation of something similar in Hill Country?
  14. He's a meteorologist with NOAA.
  15. Hook 'em! Very gruntling.
  16. fwiw here's the first portion of the results in a search using the site seats.aero for points/mileage redemption opportunities for parts of July and August for flights from AUS to major airports in Europe, sorted from low to high in the business category. There's obv an extra fee for flight to LHR. Green results are non-stop and blue is 1 stop. My search specified at least 2 seats available per flight.
  17. Drone production deal Swift Beat was formerly known as White Stork, Eric Schmidt's drone company.
  18. Amusing to see a thread on this. I did the 3-2-1 spare ribs on a pellet grill today after I picked up a package from Costco because they were on sale. They had a peppery rub already on 'em. Added a small bit of Bachan's Japanese barbecue sauce, which I tried for the first time and which isn't sweet at all. Excellent combo.
  19. red stop sign means nothing to musk/tesla
  20. Just pure coincidence
  21. Thanks for the car pics.
