Disaster response better, worse, or on par with Puerto Rico?

Trump is going to look at the electoral map permanently posted in the oval office, see that the Carolinas voted for him, then press a button on his desk and say "give them whatever they need". Button may or may not be an intercom.

congrats to the guy I know from high school on Facebook who wanted to escape the smoke in Salem and so took his family on vacation to the panhandle

it was a big problem last heat wave because a ton of the homes there dont have any AC, people dont even have window units

we live in a Seattle home with no AC. brought our old portable AC out of storage and ordered an additional one before they sold out (I hate portable units but our windows are weird and none of them would really fit a window unit).

as it happens I called an HVAC guy a few weeks ago (at the first signs of summer heat, not even anything out of the ordinary) and he wasn't even available for an initial estimate for almost two months. Anecdotally the abundance of homes without AC around here means that HVAC techs are already at 100% capacity, and if it's anything like previous heat waves portable/window units will sell out almost immediately if we have any serious heat.

seems bad!

btw has anybody mentioned that Seattle grocery stores are all sold out of ice and most cold beverages? was at QFC a few hours ago and they had limits on the amount of ice and water you could buy, but ice was still entirely sold out. Shelves seemed pretty bare for a lot of random food and stuff as well

lol on behalf of my relatives who are planning a CT beach wedding in one week

we were already a "no" on account of it being a plague wedding but making it a natural disaster wedding as well is a nice touch

it's a good thing that for every anti nuke knee jerk there's a guy who's super into nukes and will not shut the gently caress up about how great they are

"super into nuclear power guy" is such a classic 2000s-era internet forum guy that I find it endearing. One of the few of those archetypes still around and going strong, having the exact same argument for two decades straight. It's like if there were still edgy atheists popping up occasionally to talk about the flying spaghetti monster.

(nb i am also a nuclear power guy)
