I heard on the news that it was a years' worth of rain!!!
At least 13 killed, 20 children missing in #Texas #floods
The state received several months worth of precipitation in a few hours, according to officials, leading to dangerous #FlashFloods
by Nadine Yousif, BBC News
July 4, 2025
"Thirteen people have died in Kerr County in the US state of Texas, according to authorities, after #SevereWeather and flooding hit parts of the state.
"More people are unaccounted for, including at a summer camp where Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick confirmed around 20 children are missing.
" 'Within 45 minutes, the #GuadalupeRiver rose 26 feet and it was a destructive flood - taking property and sadly lives,' he said in a news conference on Friday.
"He read out a statement from all-girls Camp Mystic, where about 750 children were attending, saying there had been a 'catastrophic level' of flooding, and informed parents that if they have not been contacted, their child is accounted for."

"""
The focus on politics, economics, and law are all destined to fail because they are based around humans. Theyβre designed to guide humans, but weβve left out the foundation of our existence, which is nature, clean air, pure water, rich soil, food, and sunlight. Thatβs the foundation of the way we live and, when we construct legal, economic and political systems, they have to be built around protecting those very things, but theyβre not.

When I was younger I used to read science fiction, some which predicted a post scarcity world where weβd cured diseases and aging while others predicted technology powered dystopian police states.
When you see a budget with $4B for curing cancer and $170B for mass deportations & detention centers, itβs clear which future America has chosen.
Happy 4th of July.

4 July 1902 | Dutch Jew, Heiman IsraΓ«ls, was born in Leek.
He was deported to #Auschwitz in September 1942.
He did not survive.
His wife Aaltje and their son Levie were deported to the camp three months later. They were murdered in gas chamber after arrival selection.
Many anarchists, anarcho- and revolutionary-syndicalists, advocates of workers' councils, and other libertarian socialists, have made brilliant analyses of the workers' problems and come up with serious programs, but they continue to talk and dream instead of buckling down to work their ideas out in practice.

4th of July Meme Thread: the Resistance Edition
I've shared this meme a lot over time and one thing that people need to understand about right now is that the "usual people" who stand up in opposition is *not sufficient* β you don't get to panel 4 until EVERYONE stands (at least 80%). That means people who've been silent need to fucking step up.

"There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.
Remember this, Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that theyβve already enlisted in the cause.
Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
And remember this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.
Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empiresβs authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege.
Remember this: Try."

Anti Communism was a core aspect of Hitler's motivation and ideology.
For this reason, I regard most anti communists with extreme suspicion.

Memorial graffiti in Sydney for Dan Shersty and Spit Newborn, young anti-fascist skinheads, punk musicians, and founding members of the Las Vegas chapter of Anti-Racist Action.
On the 4th of July 1998 they were lured into the desert on the outskirts of Vegas and gunned down by a gang of 6 white supremacists, only three of whom ever served time for the murders.
Their memory is kept alive in the daily struggle against racism and fascist terror.
Never Forgive, Never Forget.

Every flag is black in a fire!
"The black flag means negation, anger, outrage, mourning, beauty, hope, the fostering and sheltering of new forms of life and relationship with this earth. We are proud to carry it, sorry we have to, and await the day when such a symbol will no longer be necessary."
π΄
Louise Michel, AndrΓ© Breton, Jean Genet, and others reflect on the meaning of the black flag, the anarchist standard of rebellion and negation.CrimethInc.
Went to a 4th of July party today with a bunch of friends and neighbors instead of family like usual.
It was great, but I will say that all political conversations were like listening to @Cosmic talk to himself.
