Oh goody
Yet another pipeline explosion has finally stopped leaking:

If only our media did their jobs
I still remember this. Local media embarrassed themselves at how willingly they covered up for this disaster:
Journalist: Govt/biz press release is not the article. Listening to @Wondery American Scandal podcast about 3 Mile Island where the govt & the company assured the public things were fine. A skeptical journalist played other sources suggesting some leave. https://t.co/3jVTSu97EB

Horrible
This is slavery. In NY, forced to mass produce hand sanitizer. Not allowed to use it. In California, risk their lives to stop wildfires. Not allowed to become firefighters. In Louisiana, filled sandbags to save homes. Left in cages when storm hit. https://t.co/XkwZMfwaS1

Devious bastards
I wish I could say that Ron DeSantis aping Trump’s lawless approach to everything wouldn’t get him elected as president, but I’m not so sure:

The relief gang
Now here's a dude: "Trae captains a volunteer group called the Relief Gang, which the two formed in 2017, in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. Since then, the Relief Gang has become one of the most respected and relentless crews in Houston."https://t.co/0ND1i20mxs
