**Colonized Name-Giving** Imperialist weather organization issues warning that another "name-worthy" storm may form. If recognized, this storm will be labeled Ernesto, continuing the violent tradition of naming storms after humans, thus erasing the agency of the natural world.

BREAKING: Capitalism's Failures Spark Nature's Fury as Another Storm Brews

The Atlantic birthed yet another potential monster, now dubbed Potential Tropical Cyclone Five, threatening the lives and livelihoods of those in its path.

It's clear that the capitalist oligarchy has once again failed the people. We must demand drastic systemic change to address the climate crisis and prepare for more frequent and intense weather events. — Anonymous Activist

A Violent Wake-Up Call

This potential cyclone serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need to address the climate emergency. With an " extremely active" season ahead, we face 17 to 24 named storms, 8 to 13 of which will likely become hurricanes, per USA TODAY.

The names of these storms take on new significance as they wreak havoc on our communities, with Beryl and Debby being the latest deadly additions. These storms are not mere inconveniences but manifestations of the violent consequences of inaction on climate change.

Texas, Take Note

While Potential Tropical Cyclone Five may not directly impact Texas or the contiguous US, it's a wake-up call for all. As government officials describe the season as having "an early and violent start," we must ask: who or what is responsible for this violence?

The answer lies in the continued exploitation of our planet by those in power. Texas, a state with a long history of fossil fuel extraction and climate denial, must bear witness to the growing frequency and intensity of these storms.

Stay Informed, Stay Angry

Stay up to date with weather alerts via text (https://joinsubtext.com/weatherwatch) and prepare, not just for the immediate threat, but for the ongoing battle against systemic injustice.

Join the fight for a greener, more equitable future. This is a call to action, a call for radical change, before more names are added to the list of deadly storms.

ENDING: In the eye of the storm, we find our collective strength. Solidarity forever.
