"Pride and Joy" is a song by American singer, guitarist and songwriter #StevieRayVaughan and his backing band #DoubleTrouble, released in late 1983 by #EpicRecords. It lists Vaughan as the writer, but actually it is rewritten from a 1962 record called "I Go Into Orbit" by Johnny Acey. The song was released on Stevie's debut studio album #TexasFlood (1983). "Pride and Joy" was released as Vaughan's debut #single and has become one of his most popular songs.

From our magazine: I studied water. I studied rivers and tributaries and floodplains and watersheds. Hydrology was a main focus of my research. But theory is one thing, and seeing 100-year-old cypress trees laying flat on the ground, completely uprooted, is another.

In our magazine: "I walked into an apartment slipping and stumbling on mud so thick I couldn’t see the floor underneath. The table in the dining room was set, decorated with charger plates, flowers, and napkins nicely folded. The mud and debris covered everything." https://www.texasobserver.org/where-the-water-reached/

From @gusbova in our magazine: Kendall Scudder bills himself as both a progressive firebrand and a self-sacrificing devotee of the party. The Texas Observer spoke with him in mid-July about Bernie Sanders, the Hill Country flood, and diversity.

People did not die solely because of forgetfulness but because this amnesia allowed succeeding generations to erase the past and their responsibilities to the future. When they could have enacted post-flood, life-saving interventions, they chose not to act on their progeny’s behalf.

Let's watch Americans complain endlessly about the flood response in Texas while doing absolutely nothing to change anything or hold anyone meaningfully accountable.
People in power are not affected by complaining. People in power are not affected by peaceful protests. If they can safely ignore it, then it won't change anything.
The only way to change things is to make it so hard to abuse power that it stops being worth the effort.

I remember the river
how it felt like a silent companion and always gentle guide
how it felt timeless, ever present and patiently waiting for our returnI remember singing “Peace, I ask of thee oh river, peace, peace, peace”

We had spent so many hours on that porch looking out over the yard and to the river below. Now the water splashed against the bottom of its railing." —Aaron Parsley for Texas Monthlyhttps://www.texasmonthly.com/news-politics/texas-flood-firsthand-account/

So over 100 people, including dozens of children at #CampMystic died in the Central #TexasFlood because the #UltraMAGA alpha males that replaced #FEMA “didn’t want to cry wolf” with an evacuation order that might not have been necessary.

What Trump doesn't know, and probably cannot comprehend, is that it's been far less than 100 years since Central Texas' last hundred year flood. And as for 'nobody saw it coming', I saw a similar flood there in the late 90s, and if I still lived in Texas, I'd probably run for higher ground every damn time it thundered.

Texas River #Floods After Massive Water Level Increase Overnight
by Anna Skinner, October 26, 2023
"A river's water levels in drought-stricken #CentralTexas increased dramatically overnight on Wednesday after #HeavyRains doused the region.
"Texas has suffered from severe drought throughout the summer with the water levels in many lakes, reservoirs, and rivers dropping as a result. As of Thursday, the entirety of #LlanoCounty in central Texas was suffering from #SevereDrought, with nearly 45 percent of the county battling exceptional drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor Map. 'Exceptional' is the worst classification of drought by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
"#LlanoRiver levels have remained low throughout the summer but jumped by 10 feet overnight after heavy rains pummeled the region. Parts of Llano County received at least 7.5 inches of rain through 7 a.m. local time on Thursday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) office in San Antonio and Austin. The rainfall supplemented the Llano River, which entered a moderate flood stage."
