With hurricane season gearing up, I'm seeing the usual checklists of things that everyone on the Gulf Coast should have ready.

In the pandemic, even when vaccine researcher @PeterHotez told me something bleak, I felt better: The problem was defined. A first step. Last night @BakerInstitute we talked about the rise of anti-science. Bleak. But defined. A first step. https://t.co/k6vptw8BhX
Excited to interview vaccine researcher @PeterHotez tonight about his new book, The Deadly Rise of Anti-Science. Sponsored by @HoustonChron @BakerInstitute @BrazosBookstore https://t.co/kTdyRuo6fr
Houston gripes, anyone? Mine is: This drought killed magnolias, which are great trees. Couldn’t it have taken out those wretched tallows? We’re grumbling at 9 a.m. on @HoustonMatters
