A significant wildfire in Texas has resulted in one fatality, prompted evacuations, disrupted electrical services, and temporarily halted activities at a nuclear facility. The fire has consumed 1.1 million acres near Amarillo, ranking as the second-largest in U.S. history.
Governor Greg Abbott has declared a state of disaster in 60 counties. The fire, fueled by dry vegetation, high temperatures, and strong winds, is only 3% contained.

Whilst I don't take Intercept stories as gospel this seems well researched though it is repetitive and overly long, on the NY Times Oct 7th piece.
To me this is a case of confirmation bias; the NY Times wanted a sensational story and sent a staffer who doesn't understand confirming sources to manage a stringer that was inexperienced and found nothing but was continually pushed to find it so it became a conspiracy myth.
But it's another violation of the victims.

Jonathan Coulton's "Still Alive" (from Portal) is an Easter song, and the lyrics don't even require that much tweaking to work. Imagine Jesus singing it to all of humanity:
This was a triumph
I'm making a note here
"Huge success"
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction
My Father's Kingdom
We do what we must because we can
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are dead
But there's no sense crying over every missed line
You just keep on trying till you run out of wine
And the tombstone grows moss and you make a neat cross
For the people who are still alive
I'm not even angry
I'm being so sincere right now
Even though you broke my heart
And killed me
And tore me to pieces
And threw every piece into a fire
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you
Now, these points of data make a beautiful line
And we're out of beta, we're releasing on time
So I'm glad I got burned, think of all the things we learned
For the people who are still alive
Go 'head and leave me
I think I'd prefer to stay inside
Maybe you'll find someone else
To help you
Maybe Ron Hubbard?
That was a joke, ha-ha, fat chance
Anyway, this wine is great
It's so delicious and moist
Look at me, still talking when there's religion to do
When I look out there, it makes me glad I'm not you
I've experiments to run, there's salvation to be done
On the people who are still alive
And believe me, I am still alive
I'm doing preaching and I'm still alive
I feel fantastic and I'm still alive
While you're dying, I'll be still alive
And when you're dead, I will be still alive
Still alive
Still alive
In September, Hyundai and Kia issued a recall of 3.4 million vehicles in the United States with an ominous warning: The vehicles should be parked outdoors and away from buildings because they risked catching fire, with the engines on or off.
Six months later, most of those autos remain on the road – unrepaired – putting owners, their families and potentially others in danger of fires that could spread to garages, houses or other vehicles.

Furthermore if Putin proposes some kind of ceas-fire when he has occupied half of Ukraine, Scholz will push for that.

Congress relies too much on the Courts. Too often, the Courts make decisions that should have been made by Congress. Too often, Congress fails to incorporate into the law decisions that have been made by the Courts.
Bump stocks sole purpose is to convert legal arms into illegal arms. If there is ambiguity in the law, Congress should modify the law to clarify it. A one-page bill would do the job. The fact that we have a non-functional Congress is a disgrace.

rising public pressure in Israel to free the hostages

The window may be short.
