How did anyone live here before climate control

i work out in my garage which is not climate controlled, even in the summer. its doable but you just need to drink a lot of water. did it all through the heat dome last year. ideally i would just get up at 5 am and lift before it gets too hot but my son stays up so late that isn't doable. hard physical labor in triple digit temperatures builds character.

If I remember right, Santa Ana was snowed in during the winter while in the RGV, delayed his full entry into Texas. poo poo used to be colder.

https://twitter.com/cd_hooks/status/1788238586803847332 OK so apparently the Azerbaijanis were after general good feelings in America so we wouldn't say anything when they did war crimes against Armenia in 2020. And we didn't.

While there's a line in there that says this doesn't mean that we're mandating cuts, the message is obviously that changes are coming and that entire programs will be eliminated or "reorganized."

The same thing is happening all over the state. This isn't even necessarily a Mike Miles or Mike Morath thing. The buzzword I'm seeing from the vultures that are watching this all gleefully is that districts need to "rightsize" their programs. But it's an ugly combination of federal pandemic funds disappearing, post-pandemic chronic absenteeism and drop-outs (with funding being based on enrollment and attendance for schools), inflation, and no additional state funding to counter any of these shortfalls.

To anyone who has never watched the recording from the Houston ISD board governance training around October 2018 you should check it out. It's linked in this article if you just want to read about it: ‘A step below hell’: Video gives inside look at HISD board’s dysfunction Or here's the full video on the Chronicle's vimeo.

He's always been a crazy bugfuck conservative but I wonder if his cynical business sense is trying to hedge it's bets come November while his bugfuck side hopes he loses a ton of potential revenue just to get Trump back in office.
