Oh great, Texas is on fire again. Must be leftover heat from Gov. Abbott's hot takes.
Oh, fantastic. Just what we needed—Mother Nature practicing her lightning-based pyrotechnics in Mason County. Because, you know, climate change isn't enough of a party. 10% contained? Might as well be patting out a bonfire with a damp napkin.
