I have seen so many comments cheering this merger on because they have gamepass... No, we can't all think beyond short term.

Because the cities are named by European immigrants naming places after their home towns. It not very original but I guess its better than naming it after yourself

Its just used that way to make it less wordy. Like when people say "Raising money for cancer" instead of "raising money for cancer research". I always find it mildly humorous but the intent is obvious.

You are so right. Media/government/society has been conflating objectivity with neutrality. Many things are objectively right or wrong.

Its more than just shade! Trees create extra cooling effect by using the suns energy and from the water evaporating from their leaves. Thats why you won't burn your feet on grass but an equally dark pavement burns your feet. Tree > umbrella in terms of heat mitigation.

This could a nice horror film. Coach leaves Ole Miss and then has to survive a night of people dressed as rebels speaking revenge.

How is that possible? Tires alone will be that cost. Oil changes over 20 years? Even if you only changed oil annually for 20 years for $20 thats $400.

Not that you should ditch your car. I have a 12 year old with similar performance.

A lot of big oaks and other trees are vulnerable too. In South Florida the trees are periodically culled by hurricanes so the trees still standing have made it through a few storms and the ones that do go down are fewer in number. Up north they had decades upon decades of growth that had never seen a hurricane. A tree growing in a way not conducive to hurricane survival growing for decades then getting knocked down can cause a lot of issues.

Slash pine is as hurricane resistant as anything and the only reason there isn't a lot left is because they were on the few spits of dry land in South Florida. So naturally they were cut down for timber used to build on that dry land.

A Cat 1 will still cause a lot of problems in North Florida. Since they don't get hit as often they aren't used to it, the infrastructure isn't ready for it, the trees aren't ready for it, etc. I remember one fucking up Tallahassee not too many years ago.
