Ted Cruz Missing Again During Texas Emergency
No, that isn't a 4-year-old headline. If I may jog your memory, back in February 2021, Texas and other parts of the Central and Southern United States experienced a massive winter storm that knocked out power plants and left residents without heat or electricity for several days. Hundreds of people were killed. As the state quite literally froze over and his constituents went without basic necessities, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and his family booked a flight to Cancún, Mexico, and stayed at the Ritz-Carlton. The New York Times reported that in a group text with friends and neighbors, Cruz's wife, Heidi, revealed she wanted to escape their "FREEZING" house. Here he is at the Cancún airport to board a flight home: Now, it's 2025, and the weather just keeps intensifying. Texas just experienced another devastating natural disaster with severe flooding over the Fourth of July weekend. And Ted Cruz home. The Daily Beast reported that Cruz, who has served Texas in the US Senate since 2013, was sightseeing in Athens, Greece, when the flooding began. To be completely fair, he was already out of the country this time, but the outlet stated that he was still sightseeing with his wife a full day after 20 girls were reported missing from a summer camp in hard-hit Kerr County. Over on r/politics, user OtmShanks55 posted an article from the New Republic about Cruz's absence, and people cut right to the jokes. The original poster called Cruz a "banana slug" and said they thought the "headline was a joke." Someone joked that this is the "Ted Cruz Weather Warning System" at work... ...and someone replied that with the way things are going, we might actually have to rely on that pretty soon. Someone asked, "Is that guy always on vacation?" Others criticized his delay in returning home. There were name puns. Lots of them. This person cut him a LITTLE slack, but wondered why Cruz would be out of town for the Fourth of July in the first place. And finally, most people just have one little word to say: What do you think? Sound off in the comments.

What shall I tell my friend when she smells in the heat?
As a July baby, I am on the side of sunshine and the causes of sunshine. Warmth is my medium. When the local TV news carried a 'yellow heat health alert' – the condition formerly known as 'summer' – yesterday, I rolled my eyes. Don't talk to me about heat. Some of us are old enough to remember the summer of 1976, when it was so hot for so long that the tarmac on the pavements melted and the lampposts dipped like wading birds. Lawns were crispy brown and people queued at standpipes for water. No one had heard of 'air con' and sunscreen was in its infancy. We didn't really bother with it. I remember the agony of badly burnt shoulders on Bri-Nylon sheets in a seaside boarding house. Somehow the artificial fibres, slithery to the touch, made it worse. Can that be right? A heatwave is not 'three or four days' as a TV weatherman tried to claim. Wimps! When I tweeted my memories of the summer of '76, several people raised me the sizzling summer of '59, before my time. 'Now that really was a summer from May 5 to mid-October,' Michael recalled. 'Weeks and weeks of hot weather.' Anyway, yesterday I finally cracked and broke my vow to never ever complain when we have great weather in this country. The dog was miserable and could only be walked at first light or after 8pm. I put ice cubes in Bingo's water. I had the fan on all night Monday into Tuesday, but I still woke up feeling like I hadn't had any joined-up sleep, so I was tetchy. And then there was the unmentionable problem: body odour. Two showers a day to try and keep the sweat at bay. But what about other stinky people – do you say something or not? I met a friend for a coffee at my club in London; Sarah had just got off the Tube, where the heat had gathered in the tunnels like a furnace and the air was unbearable: soupy and stagnant. When Sarah dipped in for a hug, the pong made my eyes water. KO'd by BO! She said she had her office summer party in a couple of hours and I wondered if I should tell her. Tell her what exactly? 'You smell, darling?' 'How about some more deodorant?' What if she was mortified? There is no sweat etiquette that I'm aware of. But I couldn't let my friend enter a room with all of her staff and have them thinking the new boss had terrible personal hygiene. On the other hand, a polite form of words eluded me. I pulled out some perfume from my bag and sprayed her generously with it. 'Do I pong?' she laughed. 'Er, a bit sweaty, yes.' 'Ah, thank you for telling me.' Sarah reminded me that she totally lost her sense of smell after Covid. 'It's good because I can't smell anyone else. Trouble is, I can't smell if I smell either.' We went to the powder room and Sarah had what my grandmother used to call a 'strip wash' while I held her blouse. Her body was now clean, but the blouse was impregnated with sweat. I applied lashings of perfume under its arms and over her hair. I just got a text from Sarah: 'After you washed me and sprayed me with perfume I went to that office party. There was no air movement at all and I was talking to the most wonderful, suave, handsome Frenchman. I'm sure all he could smell was the strange combination of leftover BO and your scent. He thought I was a party girl on the pull – it was great!' I'm glad I told Sarah about the BO because, I guess, I'd hope someone would be honest with me – and that I wouldn't take offence. Meanwhile, I made a mental note to travel everywhere with a can of 72-hour odour protection and a change of top. Even a July baby was prepared to concede that, just for once, it was too darn hot. And then, this morning, the loveliest sound in the world: rain! Broaden your horizons with award-winning British journalism.
