Important message for Texans:
Yet another completely preventable death has occurred, sadly part of a trend.
Dozens of women are dying, and hundreds more are suffering under Texas' abortion ban. Do not vote for Ted Cruz if you value these people's lives. This should never have happened in the first place and must not continue. Vote on November 5th to end this.
Jellyfish Sprite
Red sprites or the tentacle-like spurts of red lightning in the sky during a storm are sometimes referred to as Jellyfish Sprite (because of their shape). There are also some that are vertical columns of red light and those are called carrot sprites.
They are ultra fast electricity traveling through the atmosphere towards space and are extremely rare (they last a tenth of a second). They can also be seen from space.

HARVEY 2017
To those in Texas dealing with this shit show of a polar vortex, your friendly neighbourhood Canadian is here.
SO you’ve lost power and fucking freezing? First things first. You’re going to grab literally every blanket and pillow and cushion you can find.
Grab some newspaper or other papery material, it’s insulation.
Next, you’re going to build yourself a motherfucking blanket fort. Keep it small but with enough space you won’t feel like death.
Put the newspaper on the floor, put cushions and pillows, then your blankets. Build it up.
Any form of light source will also help (just please don’t light anything on fire). Keep that there.
As for clothing, you need to layer it up. Keep moisture wicking material as a base, then build it up. You might look like the Michelan tire man or Pillsbury Dough Boy but you’ll be warm.
If you have pets that are susceptible to the cold, put one of your shirts on them and bring them to the blanket fort.
KEEP YOUR TAPS DRIPPING SO THEY DON’T FREEZE.
DO NOT OPEN YOUR FRIDGE OR FREEZER UNLESS YOU HAVE TO. The temperature there will not protect your food enough.
If you have to go out at all, look for shiny patches on the road. That is black ice.
If you hit ice, don’t panic, don’t hit the pedals, lightly take your foot off the gas, steer into the skid to gain control again (do not over steer) and then straighten your wheel. Look where you want to go and then start slightly steering that way.
Pack clothes and blankets. Cardboard, shovel, and cat litter if you have it. This will help if you happen to get stuck.
IF YOU GET STUCK IN THE SNOW for the love of God do not just gun it. That will damage your vehicle and dig you into a bigger hole. You need to either wait for help or “rock” your vehicle. Hit the gas a little, then back off of it. Do this in a steady rhythm so that your car rocks. Rock with it.
Y'all can get through it. Stay safe my friends.

Watch: President Obama is officially out of f*cks to give

Finally got around to making some art for my bocce team: Texas Forever. We roll every Sunday which means we lose every Sunday, but hey, we have fun doing it. I think if we get this on a shirt, no one will want to beat us or will just fall in love with us.
