  1. Yes and every time I'm in that area (likely the poorest person within miles) St Aramands, Siesta Key, Longboat Key, Anna Maria Island, etc I'm amazed at how they just built a ton of houses on the ground, no stilts or elevation or nothing, on a low-lying barrier islands... I guess it makes sense when they haven't had a major Hurricane since 1921 but still. Shits fucked
  2. Maybe filters out some of them, but didn't help for the blue alert last week...
  3. Storm just keeps on revving up, not great:
  4. Was just about to post that I haven't actually been to a game at the Trop, but have been to that area of St Pete nearby many times including Bodega and Green Bench and really hope nothing too terrible happens to them. But yeah from the outside the Trop looks like it might fall down in a stiff breeze let alone a strong hurricane...
  5. Getting some very strong Katrina Superdome and post Katrina Astrodome vibes, guess at least it's meant for National Guard and Line workers and not refugees:
  6. Getting very close to getting rid of that app every time I see people talking about that...my god we are fucked as a society when people believe that shit...
  7. Managed to bike over to the Amtrak station to see 4014 yesterday early right at 9 and place was already mobbed, glad I was on a bike… kinda neat to see all the original name plates and such up close, plus the plaque they got honoring the people who preserved the locomotive well enough for it to be refurbished is very cool.
  8. goalposts getting a police escort
  9. Got family and friends in Tarpon Springs, Bradenton and Sarasota so not too thrilled reading into this. Have had lots of close misses or glancing blows from Hurricane recently but don't think anyone living in that area has ever been through a direct hit from a major hurricane there.
  10. if Vandy holds on the Gump meltdown on Finebaum Monday is gonna be glorious
  11. Gonna be some all time crowd shots of sad bama fans should Vandy pull this off
  12. No fuckin way Vandy ball!!
  13. no fucking way Vandy holy shit
  14. Just told my friends that, looks like a very fun place to watch a game.
  15. I do low key love it when Gameday goes out on the left coast: its still well before sunrise local time at the beginning and the fans just seem a little bit crazier regardless of how little they seem to care about football out there most of the time.
  16. Yeah I just wish these dumbass blue alerts had their own channel so I could turn them off and still get emergency alerts for actual emergencies like severe weather, chemical plant explosions, when the nukes fly, etc... guess I gotta email Tim Apple if I want that?
  17. Even if he did kill him, which he didn't, what the hell am I, a random person trying to sleep in Houston which is almost 500 miles away, supposed to do when DPS pushes this alert and all the phones in my house go off at 4:53 am? Am I supposed to strap up with my utility belt and Batman leotard and cape and start looking for 33 year old white man wearing a t-shirt and blue jeans to beat to a pulp? The whole concept of the "blue alert" is dumb pro-cop propaganda and blasting them out statewide is even dumber.
  18. If I saw someone pushing that cart out in the parking lot of Costco it would take every fiber of my being not to go up and push that whole fucking stack onto the ground
  19. DPS literally took down the "Contact us" website for the public to reach out to them about Blue Alerts...lol this is the most crooked ass Texas gubmint shit...
  20. Looking forward to actually being able to buy TP this weekend now, thanks Secretary Pete!
  21. The stupid “blue alerts” aren’t new but I don’t remember them blasting them out statewide at 4am ever before…
