Oh, gently caress, my favourite seasonal show from across the globe is back up.

Are there any ~~idiots~~ people planning to stream from the storm? The last year's show was spectacular.

gently caress, those islands are getting hit hard. I hope they have better luck rebuilding than Haiti.

Cat-a-gory.

Does the government have tables for critical hits as well?

So apparently the Texas (Odessa/Midland, not El Paso or San Antonio!) shooter was a nut who had threatened two of his neighbors with his rifle already, lived in a house without running water or power, and had just been fired from his job as a trucker hours before the shooting began.

But what about his bathtub?

And this will make the tourist rates drop, and the economy will tank for decades.

Fox News, I know, but the correspondent is a good one and on the ground on Abaco, it's pretty terrible

gently caress. This thing was supposed to rip up some flags and rattle some windows on streams, not reduce an island to a pile of bodies.

And it's getting worse every hour there.

I hope there are no ships loaded with explosives passing through Halifax during the storm.

EDIT: LingLing's a lot meaner that it sounds. Three already dead.

five people dead and 460 houses damaged or destroyed in North Korea, according to state media.
...
The storm flooded 460 sq km (178 sq miles) of farmland

So, the resulting death tool may be in the thousands?

The typhoon struck North Korea at 14:00 local time

Now, that's discipline.

It says people were sent to some shelters which ultimately collapsed.

On a lighter note, there's a man who pronounces "matter of fact" as "motherfuck" and I want to adopt that accent.

Their latest issue

People are being flown out, free, it seems. There are even smiles at this point.

Ah, gently caress. One of the collapsed shelters was a church with about 300 people inside.

There's an "outbreak" of something, too.

What does it mean ' turning violent' ? Could someone sum up the videos for me I'm too scared to watch them.

At least one gun store has been broken into, people are looting half-destroyed shops and houses, shots have been fired, there are gangs which even get territorial, new looters are arriving on the island on private boats. Some locals refuse to evacuate, because their place will definitely be ransacked by the gangs.

And here

They'll use bulldozers and special equipment to detect bodies... noses?

The oil spill may have contaminated the water, but they're sending a ship and a helicopter.

Bahamasair was charging people to fly them out of the disaster area, but they've been ordered to stop.

It's not a good sign when a disaster relief presser starts with two bible verses.
