Welcome, friend. What makes this old dude so smart? Mistakes were made. I stream, so I don't watch much live TV "news" shows. I'm guessing that they will all be drawn to the detail of if the NWS was manned or not. Goodbye, big picture. See: where gun was purchased as the top priority in a mass shooting. Through Apollo, NASA was 90% engineers. By the 80s it was 3% engineers. I'm sure now it is a giant bureaucracy filled with grad school grads who don't know how to do anything. My loathing of what the proliferation of grad students is doing to language and our world grows daily. When was the last time you met a PhD and walked away thinking, that guy is really smart. And the sign said anybody caught trespassing would be shot on sight...

A friend sent me the link with the message, "watch all the way to the end." Thirty minutes. I watched the first few and got impatient. I skipped to about the 15 minute mark and assumed the camera was now at a new location. Then I recognized something and thought, "holy shit." I watched it all the way through from the start. Thirty minutes and it rose from stream to flooding over the center of the bridge. Not to be maudlin, but I just kept thinking of those poor sleeping little girls. Hard fucking world.

Nor does the smallest sense of decency, but here we are. -
Yes. I still perk up when I here the sirens being tested. You would know something is wrong and immediately take steps to find out. @Hagbard Celine has added much to this thread about flood planes and historic memory. Just looking where the Mystic cabins were is sickening. The land tells you that floods happen here. Nobody should be sleeping on the banks of the river. Sure, have activities there in the daytime, but everybody to high ground at night. I'm usually not terribly affected by tragedy like this. Kids getting shot to death in class has made me sort of emotionally callous although I still care. I can't stop imagining all those little girls loving camp and happy suddenly awakening to a torrent that sweeps them away for a horrible final few moments of life. We really do need to ship our government officials to N. Korea so Kim can get some target practice with his anti aircraft guns. But, we know how it goes in Trump's America.

The proof is in the results. I look forward to the TV press diving into the issue of staffing at the NWS as the only avenue of accountability for government. The big picture isn't really their thing. Stupid and lazy and, now, scared.
-
Twenty sets of white parents would find themselves scorned as RINOS just looking to make money off a tragedy and sacreligiously refusing to accept God's will. No. Yes. You watch the officials flee from that PC above claiming they can't answer relevant questions because they are so heroically dedicated to finding everybody as soon as possible. Utterly despicable. These reprobates probably keep expecting to find a decency guardrail, but they never hit it. Only a defeated minority of Americans care.

Yea. I didn't know about those, but I was wondering about what real time info authorities get on rising water. Relying on flash flood watches or warnings that go out whenever there's a storm is kind of like relying on the boy who cries wolf. Flash floods for most of us are impassable roads not unstoppable torrents hundreds of feet wide killing everything in its path. If an event like this could have been predicted at all, why not air raid sirens?
-
They believe that they are in war to save America for God and White People that we started. If you lose battles or have a few shitty generals, you don't abandon your side no matter how void of any rightness it may be. It's why they're winning.

I wish Sam Houston or Lyndon Johnson were around to cuff these phonies around the room until they cried. Then run out of town on the ends of pitchforks. Then airlifted to an active volcano for a last trolley ride to hell. All places are special. The way that Texas was special is pretty much all gone. Phonies in cowboy hats and boots appealing to the phonies in cowboy boots and hats that fill the state. I've never owned cowboy boots. I wear a cowboy hat when I'm going to be in the sun for an extended period of time. I'd like to cuff these phonies around the room until they cry. Who is with me?

Texas A&M Recruiting 2026: The World's Drunkest Elk
RomaVicta replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Their class, should it hold together, would be a first step in acquiring the level of talent Texas, tOSU, and Georgia have acquired over three or four years. Their coaching staff is not elite by any means, will they fund that, too? It would be expensive to draw established high quality coaches to that graveyard for careers. In A&M's most formidable years, even when they dominated the SWC, they could not make themselves elite. Their covid year ranking followed up by the bestest recruiting class ever has all gone to shit. Their performance has never, by a long shot, matched their recruiting rankings as far as I know. I guess the question I have, and I pose it to @closetojumping and anyone else with insight, is what is the big change has happened at A&M that should persuade me that they're going to rise from Texas 8&4? Elko? Facilities? Sustainable talent acquisition with top coaching staff? I know it's been discussed before, but I humble ask for the latest opinions. Thanks. -
He still lies about all of those things. Here, I'll make it easier and switch to past perfect: Why didn't we see... I didn't suppose anyone would believe that I was not suggesting that this is a pattern.

Building a border wall is not divorced from reality. The lie is in the assertion that the Mexicans will pay for it. Creating affordable housing is not divorced from reality. Many wealthy communites support it or create it so workers can live near their jobs. The wall is an idiotic scheme to support the lie that our borders are being flooded by rapers and murderers. Affordable housing is a low moral bar for a wealthy society, such as ours, to attempt clearing. Wow. Do you really have to belive that to disagree with someone? Your dire outlook as been validated by time. Release some of the vitriol from that earlier time, my friend.

I'm late to this and didn't read everything since. Perfectly made point. If even the appearance of maybe telling a lie is newsworthy, why don't we see a single headline saying Trump Lies About Immigrant as Criminals? Trump Lies About Biden. Trump Lies About Project 2025. Trump Takes Monster Bribe from Saudis/Qatar. Trump Extorts Money from Law Firms. Opinion piece: Does Trump Encourage Terrorism by Public Threat? Here's another headline: Cowardly, Template-driven Gray Lady Spreads Legs

Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
RomaVicta replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
And a ring! You get a ring! That's the most important part! This guy has it all figured out. Pretty smart for a parrot: Just show them this gaudy part of your season where you had your big chance to get crushed in the SEC Championship game. Just win one of the three conference games! Crushed by the two ranked teams on your schedule with a gut-check loss to a lousy Auburn team. I know. I know. SEC night games! The way they gush about the College Station experience. It's so yokel to tell city folk that you actually have it better out in the sticks. We love it here! It's better than where you live! We literally go. Seriously. No shit. The wife and I physically transport ourselves to CS three quarters times a year. Literally. We eat cheeseburgers and fries and then hit a chain chicken wing joint. Holy land! If they did irony, I'd think it was such, but Mr. Amazing Experience going on the coaches tour punches it home. -

They didn't look too happy about it at the Trumptastic Military Parade Birthday Party. I'm not betting they'll move, but it's not out of the question if Trump issues illegal orders which he will do.

It's a war. We need the Army. Not better messaging.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
RomaVicta replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
The NFL must sign players for more than a few years to get them. They pay for time beyond the athlete's prime to secure part of their prime career. Therefore, their salary pool will necessarily be invested in guys who must only be capable of standing around the bench. College players cycle quickly. Ewers' portion of a limited salary pool becomes free immediately. That seems to be a profound difference from the NFL. It's my understanding from those in the know around here that Texas worked to establish a sustainable level of funds. Rather than believing we burn out and see decline, isn't it more apt to see the level of talent and potential talent assembled at any given time will be typical? The only thing that changes are the names. Further, I don't know shit about any of this. Maybe my premises above are incorrect. I'll add that recruiting nerds, such as all who post here, can't change their focus from the immediate and the minute. The program, to me, seems to be in a good place with every reason to believe that's where it will remain. There's my airplane. Shoot it down. I'll at least learn something. -

Some of these people were likely visiting their doctors who explained to them what the bill means for future care. They're not reading newspapers or watching anything other than FOX NEWS, they will learn the truth from alternative sources. The realization will be only a trickle. Trump will blame Hillary or Obama. The idiots will bite. -

The swelled ranks of Proud Boys will set fire to them and roll them into the police barricades to seize the Capitol. Fine people.
