The fun part about Florida that anywhere can be a sinkhole that collapses into the aquifers hundreds of feet underground at any moment.

quote:

The ground just swallowed him up.

A Florida man fell into a sinkhole that opened suddenly Thursday night beneath the bedroom of his suburban Tampa home, calling out to his brother for help as he fell, the brother said Friday.

“I ran toward my brother’s bedroom because I heard my brother scream,” Jeremy Bush told CNN’s “AC360.”

“Everything was gone. My brother’s bed, my brother’s dresser, my brother’s TV. My brother was gone.”

Bush frantically tried to rescue his brother, Jeff Bush, by standing in the hole and digging at the rubble with a shovel until police arrived and pulled him out, saying the floor was still collapsing.

“I couldn’t get him out. I tried so hard. I tried everything I could,” he said through tears. “I could swear I heard him calling out.”

Jeremy Bush and four other people, including a 2-year-old child, escaped from the blue, one-story 1970s-era home in Seffner, a Tampa suburb.

Sinkholes: Common, costly and sometimes deadly

What began with hopes of rescue turned into a body recovery operation after monitoring equipment failed to detect any signs that Jeff Bush survived the fall into the hole, according the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

Rescuers still hadn’t gone into the hole – it’s too dangerous, Fire Chief Ron Rogers told reporters. Authorities say they worry the hole is still spreading and the house could collapse at any time.

“Until we know where it’s safe to bring the equipment, we really are just handicapped and paralyzed, and can’t really do a whole lot more than sit and wait. It’s a tough situation. It’s even tougher for the family,” Rogers said.

The sinkhole is about 20 feet to 30 feet across and may be 30 feet deep, said Bill Bracken, president of an engineering company assisting emergency workers. The hole was originally reported to be 100 feet across, but that is the diameter of the safety zone surrounding it, Bracken said.

“It started in the bedroom, and it has been expanding outward and it’s taking the house with it as it opens up,” he said.

As the sinkhole continued to deepen, nearby homes were evacuated as a precaution.

Does there come a point where hospitals just stop putting COVID cases into ICU/ventilators/ECMO if all of them really are just dying anyway?

It's pretty much 2019 everywhere. A few concerts got cancelled by the artists, but otherwise everyone has their heads in the sand.

A lot of people took the afternoon off, and are at this moment drinking at a bar in celebration of completing a project. I did get invited, but I told them that I had to respectfully decline due to COVID.

My stepdad went to the ER yesterday with some really bad shoulder / neck pain and waited 4 hours and got increasingly mad. They finally got him a room and a Dr came in and asked him if he was dying, straight up told him that if he wasn't dying he didn't have time to deal with his bullshit. They did a quick xray and prescribed him some loving Valium for muscle spasms and told him not to come back. This was in Boise, lmao.

Sure isn't on metra trains. July they capped out at 25% capacity vs July 2019 and are presumably falling again. Commuter rail is insanely hosed

1. Return to normal Friday nights

No crowd limitations. More than parents at games. Tubas, trumpets and trombones will be played in full bands. Coaches without masks. Teams playing a full schedule of games. And even refreshment stands. Yes, they will all be part of high school football again in 2021. There was a 2020 season, but COVID-19 took away many things that make Western Pennsylvania high school football special. There might still be some restrictions in 2021, but it’s pretty much a return to normalcy for football.

I am using the HelloChinese app, which also makes you draw the characters, and provides little cartoon representations of their origins. I tried Duolingo, but the complete lack of explanations for the characters made it hard to remember them.

Seconding Hello Chinese, it's extremely immersive and I love the character explanations. Like here's the word for dog: 狗 and it combines the characters for animal and speak (looks like a mouth saying a packet of words) because a dog is an animal that understands what you say to it. It rules, if you are artistic or musical Chinese is the language for you.
