As I sit here without power after actually participating in the storm, I reflect on the #Texas tag being used by a bunch of clickbait fucktards from Mastodon to spread FUD trash from other countries, rather than some kind of useful and relevant local news. Given the accounts' profile similarities, I figure they're all feds, bots, or fedbots. Mostr.pub giveth and mostr.pub taketh away.

Are you otherwise safe?
Yes, thanks. Lots of trees down for what was comparitively a small, weak storm, though. The trees knocked out a lot of power lines and damaged a lot of houses.
My mute button isn't working, so I see all the cheap shots while I'm scrolling the tag. I mean, God forbid any single person or media source post info on power restoration, temporary shelters, etc.
It's just too much full retard for my soul.
I'm glad you're OK, even if it's not convenient.
Yeah, that's pretty gross. Ugh.
Hope all safe. Been keeping contact with friends in Houston. Sounds like it’s been pretty rough
The Houston area took it in the shorts a bit. It blew through pretty quick at least. We got 6-7" of rain, but that's way better than the 4 feet Harvey dumped.
seemed a little localised. Friend in Katy said fairly calm considering what he expected where one friend in midtown was under table in kitchen as their place got a little battered. Part of living there I suppose!
