Oh, I know. Like I said yesterday, here on the edge of the Chihuahua Desert, it was muggy as hell right before it blasted through. That chilly air when it came through and then all day today was wondrous. If you guys survive the the hazardous shit tonight, you're going to love the fuck out of it tomorrow.- 2025 Thread of the Rains
When it came through here, it went from 88° at 6 pm to 64° by 8 pm. Crazy winds up to 44 mph. Current temp is 56°. Like I said, this is a strong one.- 2025 Thread of the Rains
I don't understand how my getting curbside at Whataburger and taking a photo of the rain while parked and waiting became a bitch session about curbside at HEB, but I guess Surly is gonna Surly.- 2025 Thread of the Rains
You earn points with your Whataburger orders, which you then can use to get free food. The app also offers coupons for special deals, like buy-one-get-one-free. When I moved out to West Texas, I learned through the app that green chilis are a standard add-on out here, like jalepenos everywhere else. Not sure how I would’ve learned that without it. Mostly this, though. Back on topic, another line of storms just blew through here.- 2025 Thread of the Rains
Who the hell complains about curbside? And why? That app is the best way to get your order both correct and on time, not to mention the rewards.- 2025 Thread of the Rains
You're not kidding. It was a fantastic light show that lasted for hours. Remind me, are you in Runnels or Coleman County?- 2025 Thread of the Rains

I should also mention that it got up to 88° today (and really humid for West Texas), so this is a pretty strong front. Hoping all you get something good out this.- 2025 Thread of the Rains
We had some pretty heavy stuff blow through here about an hour ago. Still getting some moderate showers with rolling thunder that's shaking the house. I've got the windows open and it's a glorious 64°. Be patient, y'all. It's coming.- Will UT Bend the Knee?

Well, yeah, sure, I know how the Euros do it, as I've lived over there for a little while, but this is America, gotdammit. Also, your explanation doesn't explain the %100 bullshit, which goes to show they're just doing it because (I assume) they saw some GenZ kids doing it.- Trivial Things That Make You Surly
What’s up with folks, including posters on this site, suddenly placing the dollar sign after an amount and the percentage sign before one? It seems like this is a pretty recent (and idiotic) orthographic trend around here that’s taken hold over the last year or so. Examples: 100$ instead of $100 %100 instead of 100% I can understand uneducated people getting confused or something, but these are supposedly college-educated or at least somewhat intelligent posters, doing this stuff, when they absolutely know better. And it is not hip or cool, if that’s why you’re doing it.- Non-political tariffs thread

https://www.npr.org/2025/10/23/g-s1-94599/anglican-church-archbishop-accused-of-sexual-misconduct Archbishop Steve Wood, who heads the Anglican Church of North America, faces allegations of sexual harassment, bullying and plagiarism, according to an explosive report released by The Washington Post on Thursday (Oct. 23). The list of charges, signed by at least 10 individuals attesting to the allegations, is the latest in a string of crises to rock the small, conservative denomination. ***** A little about the Anglican Church of North America: The Anglican Church of North America was founded in 2009 after some 700 churches split from the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Church in Canada over various disagreements, including the acceptance of women priests, LGBTQ+ affirmation and the rewritten Book of Common Prayer. In July 2021, a mother went public with allegations that Mark Rivera, a onetime lay leader at Christ Our Light Anglican Church in Big Rock, Illinois, had sexually abused her 9-year-old daughter. At least nine other people have also shared grooming or sexual misconduct allegations Rivera, who has since been convicted of felony sexual assault and felony child sexual assault. More than 10 clergy and other lay leaders in the Upper Midwest diocese have been accused of misconduct as a result and its bishop, Stewart Ruch stood trial in a proceeding that concluded Oct 15 — but not before two prosecutors had resigned amid claims of procedural misconduct. The church court's order is expected on or before Dec. 16. Meanwhile, the denomination has been shaken by dustups involving other bishops. One ACNA bishop was defrocked in 2020 due to his pornography use; in 2024, another bishop, Todd Atkinson, was ousted for inappropriate relationships with women. In September, Bishop Derek Jones, who oversaw a jurisdiction that endorsed ACNA's chaplains, announced his departure from the denomination after the archbishop moved to investigate several misconduct allegations against him. The jurisdiction claimed the proposed investigation violated church bylaws, and has moved to exit the denomination, attempting to take its chaplains with it. The jurisdiction also sued the denomination for trademark infringement and unfair business practices.- Non-political tariffs thread
I do think it really comes down to the culture war shit. They just want to hurt the blacks, the browns, the gays, and the unbelievers. No economic price is too high to pay for them to get in on that action, and they're too stupid to comprehend, or they actually enjoy, the ongoing assault on our democracy. Edit: And never mind the ballooning national debt. Edit edited: And the blatant corruption. My gawd, the corruption.- Non-political tariffs thread
He's taking swipes at all three pillars of the West Texas economy: cotton, cattle, crude. Y'all already know about the latter two, but cotton has also taken a hit. About two-thirds of our cotton goes to China, and they've cut back, dropping cotton futures down to a five-year low. And, of course, all the cost of inputs for growing the crop (fertilizer, machinery, labor) are going up. Another major blow is the hit to renewable energy (both wind and solar).
