Appears there was also a fire at a refinery in Iran as well. One I would concede is possible or even likely a coincidence. Both happening makes me believe this likely wasn't coincidence.I just skimmed an article, but it looks like a fire broke out on the ship and got out of hand. It is a cargo/training ship.

Omg.Biden administration squeezing suburbs out of existence with zoning laws

A house with a white picket fence and a big backyard might have been a staple of the American dream once upon a time, but if the Biden administration gets its way, the dream could soon be out of reach for millions of people.
As part of his $2.3 trillion infrastructure plan, the Biden administration is pushing local governments to allow apartment buildings in neighborhoods that are restricted to single-family homes. The administration claims it's a way to ease a national affordable housing shortage and combat racial injustice in the housing market.

Vice President Kamala Harris had one job: Be the woman of color Joe Biden needed at his side to win the presidency. That job was completed in November, and now, it's clear that Harris doesn't know what to do with herself.
A New York Times story on Thursday attempted to make something out of Biden's recent announcement that he was appointing Harris to lead his administration's efforts to dismantle all the ways that states organize their elections. (This is often referred to by Democrats and the media as “expanding voter rights.”)
"Wow. Sounds like a serious undertaking," you might say. "How's she going to pull that off?!"
The article answered it this way: "Her advisers say she will take a wide-ranging approach to the issue by giving speeches, convening stakeholders and using the vice-presidential bully pulpit to raise awareness of the importance of the vote."
Translation: Harris will do some talks and media interviews with friendly journalists about why "voter rights" are important to the Biden administration.
That's it. That's the "wide-ranging approach."
Admittedly, it fits in with the rest of Harris's tenure as vice president so far. She was also tasked supposedly with controlling the catastrophic mess at the southern border. But since she was given that gift from Biden more than a month ago, her team has been busy working over the media to, as the New York Times previously put it, "reframe expectations around her role, stressing that she will examine the root causes of migration, not single-handedly stop the flow of migrants to the United States.”
It's like that scene from HBO's Veep when fictional Vice President Selina Meyer mistakenly makes a promise that backs her into a political corner that she can't escape. Realizing what she's done, she ridiculously instructs her staff, "I need you to make me not have said that."
Harris is aimless, and it shows with every pathetic attempt she makes at looking productive. She's the real-life Selina Meyer.

Alot of mega neighborhoods are popping up here in st Augustine area. It has condos, townhomes and houses within.Omg.
You. Can. Still. Have. Your. Mcmansions. And. Three. Acre. Lots. That. You. Do. Nothing. With.
This just allows for duplexes and triplexs, that are the same size, to also exist in most R1 zoned areas. Which means that a person owning their house has more freedom to do what they want with their own property. Not sure why the Rs turn into a giant HOA when this stuff comes up.
Apartment complexes are also already allowed in most light residential zoned areas too. And besides this doesnt effect lot sizes. Good luck sticking an apartment complex on 1/4 lot.
Really this effects cities more than anyone, and I will say there is a reason a lot of poor black neighborhoods are fighting this tough and nail.
