RGV was always going to be hosed by this, it was just a matter of when that would happen. The confluence of factors guaranteed it, absent some environmental intervention (e.g. seasonality, vaccine, etc).

Currently living up here in the PNW, but I'm just waiting for Texas to declare a disaster and request medical staff like NY/NJ did. I want to volunteer so I can eat my Whataburger and other basic burgers back in Texas.

If my fiancee had bet me if we'd hear the n word in public usage in east texas while we went camping I would have bet the house. Sure enough we heard it while sitting in a diet coke looking lake at Boykin Springs Rec Area. Good lord it was hot this weekend. July camping can gently caress off

I hate the nyt too but the chronicle isn't a national paper in the way the nyt, wsj, or I guess (maybe) the Washington Post are. Like, I'd hesitate to call even the LA Times a paper of record It's weird to me that it's Austin that has the cool reputation outside of Texas, Houston is obviously the best city in the state

Yes, but in the public consciousness or whatever it's not treated like a national paper which is yes dumb. LA times has more subscribers according to this guy than WaPo but the latter is treated as more important (also dumb)
