Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Everywhere around the gulf coast is going to be uninsurable within the next decade. This will be happening more and more frequently as time goes on.
I thought it was pretty fool hardy a month ago when I saw a bunch of news articles asking "is the 2024 hurricane season a dud?" Bro, there will be no more "dud" hurricane seasons, it's a matter of when we get smoked, not if.
Good. I really have run out of sympathy living in one of the most vulnerable areas to climate change in the world electing governments that outlaw using the word climate change.
I understand there's lots of non dash there who are suffering unfairly, but the state is enthusiastically clear cutting mangroves, the naturally occurring thing that solves this problem, to build new developments in the path of Hurricanes.
Maybe Florida literally becoming uninhabitable within a person's lifetime as a direct result of their actions and beliefs will actually be an effective cautionary tale.
Either that or "the jews control the weather" will be annoffical part of the 2028 republican platform.
The foothills around Los Angeles have a similar issue with yuppie assholes that keep building their yuppie lofts in places that burn like clockwork during fire season.
Treatbrain can be a fatal condition.
"is the 2024 hurricane season a dud?"
People who say this in late August/early September have no idea how the hurricane season works.
