That link was just for donations. Im trying to find a contact at a church or place in the Austin area where a trailer can be parked and efforts can organized for actual materials to collect and be driven. The primary HQ is in Kentucky. Hoping to find a local person. Right now is the time to organize the materials I put in the help thread. They will need them terribly this coming weekend or sooner if possible. People, goods and organization. If someone will provide a contact at a church and someone with a trailer I'll reach out. Feel free to post my list of needs wherever you think will get the best results. We can complain about the politics later, people action and effort is what's needed right now.

Can we get back to news updates? I posted a request for help on the pinned thread as well. Please take a look when you can. So you know a lot of churches. Help me help them?

Well.... um... be mindful of stairs when you're really drunk. I know a guy that died from falling down some while hammered.

BurntEyes replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫

Fixed for you -
My mom was sleeping in a tent with her team before the national guard arrived in New Orleans. To say more doxes the shit out of me. Nobody nationally ever knew her name. She was NOT alone and chose to je there. You COULD have just posted what I kept in your quote. You didn't, in this thread, and THAT is a fucking choice too. Time and place man.

@Bob Lives! Thanks for that financial contribution! @Born to Run Thats a great list and input you provided. Sadly, having just dealt with similar issues in Eastern Kentucky and Wester North Carolina about 5 months ago I'll add some ideas of items folks can pull together below. I have no idea where exactly they can be taken at this point but if people are willing to buy and drive here are some ideas. Edit 6 - people are really needed. If you can get time off, load up with any of the items below and go. -need a trailer and someone to organize -cleaning wipes. More general wipes that can be used all over the body. -Liquid IV, dry packet Pedialite or any similar easy portable sort of electrolytes. -Socks lots of dry socks in various sizes. -Underwear, womens tend to be more important in various sizes. -Diapers. -Baby food/formula -Warm up type clothing for women and men in larger sizes is usually the best bet. -Shoes, these are tricky, but hiking/work shoes of various sizes in really good shape or new. I put clothes early because they really do matter most. Clean up products are great and very needed but people having clean dry socks, underwear and decent clean clothes provides a massive psychological boost to them. After that food for children. There is a massive mental aspect that is extremely critical, and clothes really do help. If you've ever had to walk around in wet socks/shoes/underwear and dirty clothes for ANY length of time, you'll understand. -Rubber gloves. Heavy duty industrial work gloves are best, kitchen cleaning are next, then something like the description below. Medical rip too easy in cleanup efforts but have use in broader terms if nothing else is available. Venom Steel Industrial Nitrile Gloves, 6 mil, 2 Layer Rip Resistant -Mops, squeegees, brooms, paper towels. There are 2 aspects. The heavier industrial ones are needed, but the dollar store ones can also be given out. It aligns to your ability to provide. Home Depot type heavy brooms and mops are best buy again all are needed. Heavy duty shop towel/paper towels are best and they go further than typical paper towel. -Masks of various sorts. Left over covid, and any type you can provide @Born to Run noted it, buy I'll say it again. Trash bags. Industrial are best, but at least heavy duty. The amount of waste is difficult to process. I would suggest collection efforts locally and finding someone with a single trailer or vehicle that can haul them all to a good distribution location. This collection method helps reduce traffic to the hurting area and allows relief vehicles better movement. I do not know the right distribution center but hope people on the ground can point those wanting to help in the right direction. Edit- I've asked someone headed to the area to volunteer for feedback on good donation distribution locations. If in Surly members want to donate efforts into local collection and/or anyone wants to volunteer a trailer for hauling goods it can be a way to contribute beyond money donations. I will provide info I get back on alterations to my list above and locations if I am told so. -Edit 3 - All staging efforts are in Comfort. If any Surly folks are trying to put goods together locally/regionally PM me and I will work to coordinate delivery location. I would do more, but as most know I live in TN and this is the best I can offer. Edit 2 -I thought I would add how I would organize were I there. This is my way, just a way, no the way, but I hope it helps. I reached out to a friend with a larger lockable trailer. If you have someone that has one ask them. If there is someone ask them to drop it to a local church where there is space that's willing. Ask the church for volunteers and ask your friends to take in donations and organize the trailer. Get it as full as fast as you can and then once a good local distribution location in the area is known have the trailer towed there... start the process over aligning to needs of the communities hit. Edit 4 - Ive asked multiple friends for a lockable trailer, location to park said trailer for collection efforts and someone who has a vehicle and can drive to my friend volunteering in comfort. Edit 5 - I now know the drop off location for items. Still looking for local Surly folks to help locally organize collection efforts, please. If any Surly members have any of these items or want to run with it please PM me. Edit - Priority updating

4 University of Idaho students killed in home - Suspect in Custody
BurntEyes replied to Helobious's topic in Daily Texan
I fully agree, and beyond that the single worst action that ANY criminal justice system can carry out is to execute an innocent human. Not free a guilty one, not convict an innocent one, not fail to convict a guilty one, not fail to free an innocent one, but kill an innocent one. Sadly, all of them happen to frequently, but if one can be easily avoided and it comes with the benefit of potentially freeing up resources to avoid others, logic dictates that it should be pursued vigorously. Logic, not morals, religion or emotions. Logic. That's what pushed me to become anti-death penalty. It's illogical, highly illogical. Not that I don't FEEL certain offenders deserve it. I absolutely do FEEL that way. I just don't condone nor support it because my logic supersedes my emotion on this topic. -
I too love Boondock Saints and anyone who disagrees can fight me!

Naw, you're a psychopathic killer, but so what? There's plenty of them around.

Stick- Episodes 6 and 7 about drove me off the course of the series. Santi is a bitch made pussy. Oh no, my caddie I'm into and fucking got paid to be my caddie and cause I'm a petulant litte shit head I'm mad (sad face emoji). Imma cry to mommy cause she enables me and I can fuck up her blossoming relationship with Maron (who is carrying the show, imo) Also, @Red Fiveis right needs way more Judy Greer and I better get my fucking Waylan Givens fix next episode or I'm fucking out Your Friends and Neighbors - Lotsa fun. I know Amanda Peet isnt considered "hot" by most Hollywood and certainly not Surly standards. I dont get it and I think she is way more talented than she gets credit for being. Also Olivia Munn and Aimee Carrero... hmmmm yes please. Murderbot - Maybe because I'm probably on spectrum and a mild sociopath, but I am enjoying a lot more than most of Surly.

Momentary derail... Ever in Chicago and want to hit some spots related to The Bear Armitage Orange Line L stop was featured several times this season. Go to that stop and hit: Marquee Lounge Absolutely the has the Sheffield area vibe and its right off the L. (Every neighborhood had a bit different vibe. The location where The Bear is located is in River North, my old hood. I recognize spots constantly.)

Well fuck! I know exactly where this was located. You went to Tascosa High, unless you moved. Fart and Fetchum indeed. I usually didnt get to play the game as I was getting a cartoon of cigs for my grandma, one of the grumpy old folks you described above. I once punched a kid for taking my younger cousin bike and ended up, no joke, fighting his dad. He was fat and really slow.

Why wouldn't you? Shit, I got a craving for both of them and an Aeon Flux binge right about now. I'll be in my bunk!

Lol, Syd is the cry baby in this equation.

How in the fuck are you going to include Heavy Metal in this thread?!? It was a masterpiece of animation and music. It ushered in adult animation to the US. Helped make Heavy Metal music popular in the mainstream in the US. Altered animation styles for a decade, influenced a massive amount of culturally iconic film and TV production talent and gave me my first boner. Does THIS look familiar: No sir, Heavy Metal is among the top in art produced in US history of film. It doesn't belong here.

She is text book Mary Sue. She's working for what she claims is the best in Carm, yet all she does is bitch and has "surpassed him". She has an episode, an entire fucking episode of shitty acting, writing and exposition, over 2 choices any chef would beg for in LIFE and its a fucking PROBLEM for her. A problem for a fucking noob, that a seasoned pro would KILL to have one option in a career. She is supported consistently by Carm, yes he's difficult, but it fucks her up and she can't deal. News fucking flash, almost all top chefs are a mother fucker to work for and the show makes that point extremely clear. It's fucking annoying. Her choices as an actor suck. Her writing is way worse. Suck a worm!
