Canada you are trying too hard to become the United States.

I agree, and this kind of old growth logging legit makes me sad, but there’s a big problem as I understand it at Fairy Creek and surrounding areas that wrenches everything: it’s native land, and the local native band are the ones issuing the logging permits. If we’re going to go on about native land rights and sovereignty there really isn’t shit the government can do other than provide the security for them to conduct business as agreed.

Watching the live feed from Bourbon Street, things haven't gotten bad yet except for some heavy rains. Still a handful of people walking around.

I'm really expecting (hoping?) to see a sign fall on someone's head.

Today is the 16th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's landfall. It is also my wedding anniversary.

Hurricane Andrew dissipated on our wedding day.

It's been a stormy marriage.

Hope to fuck it was evacuated, as the story suggests.
Didn't think that was supposed to happen to concrete buildings.
Or newer buildings, for that matter (sprinkler requirements)

Last report I saw said a few treated for Smoke inhalation, but no deaths or other injuries. A a miracle.

They are saying it's the exact same problem as the Grenfell tower in the UK a few years ago where 70 people died. How there are allowed to be any buildings anywhere in the world with that flammable cladding, I do not understand.

Pretty convenient for Biden to bring a major hurricane to the States just to distract from the Afghanistan fiasco.

The deep state knows no bounds.

Retrofits take a lot of time and money. They’ve basically changed insulation regulations globally since to avoid using the same material though on new buildings.

With all the destruction and it wasn't good, you always have the weather channel.
