I see elevated houses, but no elevated parking pads or garages, so any cars there are just ruined? I imagine it's pretty expensive to elevate stuff, but cars are expensive too, and folks will need them after the floods recede. Do such things exist?

the assumption is that you will drive out of dangers way leaving the stilts on the home to keep it safe while you are on high ground

rear end in a top hat goes around filming the rain. Eventually he tweets this



People start wondering if he's ok, some even suggest he might be faking his situation for attention. He has a meltdown, shouts at people, eventually responds with a photo of him on a bridge to prove he's out in the storm and in danger.

See if you can spot the lie, the people in the replies sure could.

Then, this comes out,



Apparently he's a known fraud with a bad reputation in the storm chasing community. Hasn't tweeted yet this morning so we'll have to wait and see if he's ghosted.

Yeah, I'm sure the guy in the big pickup truck yelling at the black reporter and calling them fuckheads probably just has the same problem with the corporate media that we do and isn't a lunatic, so in reality that was some good ownage everyone. Calm down

I don't have the article offhand but back in 2008 or 2009 there was this massive journalistic expose of how there were roving gangs of white supremacists shooting down black people during the weeks after Katrina

it was cited a lot during the LF era
