"In the city, authorities have recently spent hundreds of millions of dollars widening bayous, the natural waterways that flow across Houston, which nonetheless overflowed during Beryl. Authorities also bought out thousands of homes in the flood plains. But many thousands more remain." #Beryl #ClimateChange #Hurricanes #HurricaneSeason #GulfCoast #Texas +

"Jim Blackburn, co-director of Rice University’s Severe Storm Prediction, Education, & Evacuation from Disasters Center, said the city should fundamentally change its development pattern to mitigate recurring storm damage. “We ought to be very slow to rebuild in the same areas that flood over,” Blackburn said. “That’s not a popular position, but I think it’s a very important one." +

"Blackburn, a veteran environmental lawyer, was surprised at the amount of damage done to Houston’s power system by Beryl’s 90 mile-per-hour winds and by the length of the ongoing effort to restore electricity. “I cannot imagine what 150 mile-per-hour winds might have done to this community; that’s what I’m horrified of. What’s a cat 4 or cat 5 going to do to us?” Blackburn said. “They will be coming.”https://www.texasobserver.org/hurricane-beryl-warning-shot-houston/

I have such distaste for fearmongering delivered with confident self-appointed authority by people who are nowhere near protest organizing or protest participation right now. Do not issue blather confidently that's actually just internet hearsay.FFS progressives, do better.(They're on Bluesky, not here, unsurprisingly.) -_-

There is a 40k-follower strong "progressive" claiming she heard if you put a stick on your protest sign that fascists and cops will say it's a weapon with intent and fight/attack you. I just. Girl, what.I have been attending protests in Houston since February. REGULARLY. That has not happened ONCE.This from someone who said in the same breath they were considering going (so had not yet) to a Houston protest.FFS with allies like this, who needs enemies!

This is awesome! "Trucks from the First Nation could soon be transporting food, furniture and even critical minerals south of the border along ancestral pathways once used to move buffalo hides and pemmican across the plains—without paying taxes or tariffs.For generations, Indigenous peoples freely exchanged goods, knowledge and culture across the land that is now divided by the Canada–US border."https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2025/10/indigenous-nations-plan-tariff-free-trade-corridor-across-us-canada-border
