Are we placing bets on whether Kyrsten Sinema will change her party affiliation to RepubliQan instead of facing both a Democratic and GQP challenger? Anyone got odds?

Ok, #CentralCoast folks, looks like it’s our turn to take the brunt of this next #AtmosphericRiver storm. For those of us in Paso or (somewhat) inland areas the impacts likely won’t be dangerous. But if you’re near a burn scar or in an area prone to flash flooding, take note.

There’s a good update from @weatherwest on the #WeatherWest blog. https://weatherwest.com/archives/22604

At #TablasCreek, we’re expecting this to push us over our normal winter rainfall (!).

Americans know natural disasters well. Even as I type this, a major natural disaster is underway in California. What most Americans never consider is the human displacement caused by these disasters.

America has climate refugees. We are, however, in a much better position to help these people than poorer countries, who are largely bearing the burden/paying the price of our reckless energy policies & climate inaction.

By the way, Southwest blew $5.6 billion on stock buybacks in the past few years.

They could have made investments in their services and infrastructure.

They could have prepared for extreme weather events.

But no. They decided to enrich their shareholders.

I was on twitter longer than Elmo. I’m sad to lose that space. In totally related news, Michael Flynn’s account was reactivated today - on the anniversary of the insurrection. It’s a toxic cesspool. I gave up.
