    Wonder when the Texas government will start suggesting people migrate north for the summer because Texas is uninhabitable for humans.

    But don’t worry, folks, climate change isn’t real.

      It would be a marked improvement if Texas started suddenly caring about uninhabitability. The rich will simply get better generators and let the heat waves and downed power grid cull the masses.

        Can’t stay rich without people to buy your shit. Genuinely don’t understand how they don’t realize that. If the middle and lower class dies, so does their income stream. And even besides that, if all that’s left are rich folks because everyone else either cooked to death or left the area, being “rich” loses meaning because you’re now all on an even economic playing field. In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is a killer metaphor - as in, anyone left with a bigger cash stash than you becomes the de facto upper class and you do not.
