Texas swelters as record-breaking heatwave sweeps across state
Record-high heat so early in the season means state has been hotter than Death Valley, the hottest place on Earth

Texas is in the grip of an extraordinary heatwave this week, with record-breaking temperatures sweeping across the central and southern regions of the state.

While 100F days are common in Texas summers, such early-season heat is unusual. The record-high heat means that Texas has been recently hotter than Death Valley, California, which is often cited as the hottest place on Earth.

Temperatures across the central and southern region of the state ranged from 100F to 111F, levels that experts warn can pose serious health risks for anyone without access to air conditioning or enough water.

The extreme temperatures are expected to continue well into next week.

On Wednesday, Austin recorded a sweltering 101F by 5pm, breaking its previous same-day record of 97F set in 2022. Forecasts earlier in the day said the city could reach as high as 105F, far above the average May high of 87F.

The National Weather Service described the temperatures as “unseasonably hot weather” and advised residents to “stay hydrated and take frequent breaks in the shade or A/C!”

The heatwave began earlier in the week, with numerous cities hitting temperatures that exceeded 100F, stressing both public health systems and infrastructure.

The brutal heat is also testing Texas’s power grid. As residents sought relief by blasting air conditioners, energy demand surged. Electricity use peaked at over 78,000 megawatts by Wednesday afternoon, a new May record, according to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT).

The rising demand is exacerbated by the growing number of industrial facilities and cryptocurrency operations in the state, which have placed even more strain on the power grid.

The scientific community is in agreement that the global climate crisis is making heatwaves more intense, frequent and long-lasting. Last year was officially the hottest on record for Earth, and each of the last 10 years ranks among the 10 warmest since record-keeping began more than 175 years ago.

Despite the scientific consensus, the Trump administration has quickly rolled back efforts to address the climate crisis. Donald Trump has publicly downplayed the threat of global warming, withdrew the US from the Paris climate agreement for the second time, and removed climate change from many federal policy discussions.

The administration also loosened environmental regulations, even as climate scientists warned of increasingly dangerous and costly impacts, including more frequent extreme heat events like the one currently gripping Texas.

I'm more lucid after a week or three without it. Or even a few months. It kind of numbs me and simultaneously adds edge to stuff, and then after a while it doesn't wake me up as well.

Anyway, already broke my caffeine fast because of personal bullshit. If I wasn't in withdrawal stages still it wouldn't matter that I hadn't had any, but now I need to be alert. But geopolitically, oh my God, what a fucking week!

Yeah, no. I don't remember that because the majority of the video was talking about the riots and the attacks by ICE, cops, and the national guard on protesters.

I do not care about this pedantic fucking retarded bone you have to pick with exactly one thing he apparently said at some point in a video which is otherwise mostly just about a major news story. I do not care, it is not interesting, LA is rioting against the Israeli Censorship Enforcement and that is interesting. These faggoty detours over the ideological purity of every individual thing Hasan Piker says are boring and gay. IIRC he says in the same video that Biden also did an insane amount of deportations, so the idea that he's sincerely apologizing for the DNC doesn't even hold water.

It's really difficult for me to believe that there is anyone who sees LA is on fire and thinks this one-off comment is more interesting than anything he says which is actually about what's going on. It seems like purposeful derailing.

Statement from Kshama Sawant (Workers Strike Back):
Workers Strike Back & I stand in solidarity with SEIU California President David Huerta, arrested by Trump's ICE in LA.

My campaign for Congress against warmongering Democrat Adam Smith is mobilizing for mass protests TODAY, Monday June 9, in Seattle & nationally. Please join us in Seattle @ 11:15 am at 222 Columbia St (SEIU 775 building), then march to City Hall.

We need mass STRIKE ACTION & mass protests & civil disobedience to stop deportations & abductions. We need to unite the fightback against deportations with the antiwar movement to end the genocide in Gaza.

We need to bring down Trump, the billionaires, & both their parties, & begin building a new party for working people.

The Democratic Party has failed to fight Trump. Not only did Biden deport far more people than Trump in his first term, Biden also gave obscene amounts of money to private detention center corporations like the GEO Group. It is under Democratic Governor Newsom & Democratic Mayors that the LA police are repressing the protest movement with arrests & weapons like tear gas.

The genocide in Gaza was started under Biden, with Democrat war hawks like Adam Smith sending billions of dollars to the Israeli military.

We need a mass fightback of working people independent of the two parties of war, genocide, abductions, and deportations. My campaign is calling for an end to the genocide, end to all U.S. military funding to Israel, and an end to Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands.

Lucy has deep concerns over the gravity of this moment ?
Well earth's gravitational pull remained stable at 9.80665m/s², so not to worry.

I sometimes wonder if relentless contrarianism would work, so if Iran had a nuke there would be lasting peace in the region. Maybe doing the exact opposite of what the neocon/ziofascist-axis demands would actually result in peace. The logic being that they always want war, and peace is the opposite of that.
