I camp in South Texas in the summer, and the two things that help the most on hot nights are air circulation and cooling blankets. Look for anything made with Lycocell. You can sleep on top of them and they basically act like heatsinks, or if it's only in the 80's / around 25c and you still want to be covered, there are thin waffle-type ones that are supremely comfortable in that kind of temperature.

Also, if the heat is really killing you, consider a cot: the thin fabric of the cot allows air to circulate under you, cooling off your back as well.

Yeah I think this is they're way of saying "We know"

I bet the first tap to pay device maker patented the good spot.

I saw Tangent & Nor open for Iron and Wine, they were pretty good.

A ROFL inducing development 🤣

SWEET CHRISTMAS HES 22 HOW MUCH FUCKING PAST COULD HE HAVE

It's like his whole vibe is a Seth Rogan joke.

That bottle says Java

Texas does a lot of things wrong, but what it does the least wrong is Brisket.

The answer is Mexican Street Tacos though.

I can't decide if the pun is a play on the phrase "food for thought" or a pun on "brain food"... or a secret third thing....

some restrictions apply

...at the same time?

I like what hollow knight did.

You find out you're just the latest incarnation of the hollow knight, and you have to fight the last one

If he got back as fast as humanly possible then his alien-colony-of-vermin-in-a-human-suit-ass was sandbagging.

The entire county only has a population of like 50K people, and it's not an especially wealthy area.

All that said, this was a tragedy that probably could have been prevented if Texas had fewer Republicans, I'll 100% give you that, but flash floods are fucking terrifying, and in hilly areas, the flood can reach you in some cases before the rain does if it's especially bad.

This video shows how insane it got on the Guadalupe River that morning. I'm not sure about the timeline, but this would have been roughly downstream and after it hit camp mystic. The river rose over 26 feet in under 2 hours.

The owners should have closed the camp if they knew those rains were coming.

Well, when you don't vote you're guaranteeing your opinion doesn't matter. The math always works in favor of everyone voting.

That doesn't speak to my point at all. I'm saying you can't tell how well a system works when it barely has half the participation it's supposed to have, and is constantly fucked with. This is the direct result of Republican interference in Texas, no conspiracy theories required.

Kerrville, where the campers all died, is an hour west of San Antonio, and 2 hours west of Austin. no where near the city limits of either city.

San Antonio lost 13 people in early June when a massive wall of flash flood water pushed every car on a specific section of road into a ditch and carried them a mile down stream. I don't think anyone died in the most recent storm.

Austin had a similar event where one specific area where two rivers converge caught a group of people.

40% of voters in Texas didn't vote in November.

Be a lot easier to discuss how well things worked if everyone participated.
