I dunno, it didn't stop you from writing "fuck Texas" earlier. Maybe you should make up your mind ... does this merit empathy or schadenfreude?

I'd laugh but its too fucking painful.
I think Rachel Maddow had a story on an explosion in West, Texas that killed a handful of people and injured around 200 that was within blast-radius of, like, 3 or 4 schools and the response from Texas legislators was.... pass a law that says residents can't even request information about whether they live next to a chemical plant, factory or storage facility that has chemicals capable of exploding on site.
Texas also, apparently, doesn't have zoning laws forbidding such hazardous facilities from being built right next to schools and the like, and apparently has laws on the books that forbid such zoning laws being passed or something?
Texas is fucked up.
Places to potentially go to see the 2024 eclipse:
- Arkansas
- Illinois
- Indiana
- Kentucky
- New Hampshire
- New York
- Maine
- Missouri
- Ohio
- Oklahoma
- Pennsylvania
- Texas
- Vermont
- [Southern Canada - Montreal]
Criticism is much easier than working for change. Those of us down here would appreciate a little support, if it doesn't harm your superiority that much.
