Texas is having some wild weather.
Check this out from KCBD in Lubbock on June 5. From about 15:00 to 28:00 you can barely hear the on-air meteorologists over the huge hail. #WxSky

This is insane. The plan appears to be to weaken and isolate the United States as much as possible and as fast as possible.
Le Monde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to US after a search of his phone & computer revealed messages critical of Trump's science cuts, "which [says CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism".

Infatuation has lists of the best burgers, best Mexican, and best new restaurants. I love looking at them, but I wouldn't ever go to 95% of those places. Today, I found a taqueria that sells tamales by the dozen for $59.99. I could order tamales and overnight ship them from Texas for less $$

Just watched Teddy Swims cover of I Can’t Make You Love Me … wow.
His voice and the emotion he puts into it are unreal. The video is so simple, but it makes it even more powerful.

People are fleeing Florida and Texas. As of Jan. 2025, those states collectively accounted for over 30% of ALL homes for sale in the US. Florida had 157,221 active listings—the highest in the country—followed by Texas with 102,552.
Repressive state governments and rising insurance are to blame.
