This is a man still on the ground in Western North Carolina after Hurricane Helene. He’s talking to victims and they’re having their land purchased out from under them for $2,500. “Buying the land wholesale everywhere. Not just Chimney Rock, not just Spruce Pine, not just where the mine is going to be. They're buying up in Burnsville, they're buying up in Waynesville, everywhere where somebody lost their entire home, the government is confiscating the land and giving them a $2,500 check.” “It's a state-wide land grab. And then the news, the local news just reported that Governor Roy, good old Democrat, Governor Roy, decided that they were going to buy up whole communities that were devastated.”

They bought a portable #dehumidifier, and plugged it in on their porch.  They reported being able to get about 1 gallon an hour during the early morning and evening humid times.  One can then use the water for flushing, or treat it for washing dishes.

So VERY unused to the idea of having power but no water, I would never have thought of this.

I case you might see ( facebook reposts mostly ) things about ad-hoc aid being turned away or such. Things are starting to get organized. Which may upset some folks.

Floridians are already posting links to Kofi asking for donations. Trump has launched his new line of $100k watches.

it supposedly takes about 12 hrs to drive from one end of the state to the other—granted, that's a big C shape, but still 😳
