The People's Truth is the state-recommended, most trusted, most reliable media outlet in the entirety of Zargistan! The People's Truth was founded by the generous Abjul Takmir soon after his ascension to leadership of our nation. Its record for dispelling lies and subversive propaganda, as well as its unbroken guarantee to provide all the facts and nothing but the truth, quickly made it the most premier news source in the country. Many other "news sources" simply could not keep up with the rapid success of the People's Truth and were shamed into closing their doors for good.

South Carolina began official evacuation orders today for coastal counties ahead of expected flooding from Hurricane Matthew. I got to go into work today and do nothing before being told to "go home, but keep your phone close by." Fun!

On that note, if you're particularly bored today, you can see the evacuation take place in real time along the state's major highways (mostly just Interstate 26, but 95's busy with people from Florida & Georgia, too). Check it out here on the state's live traffic camera feeds:

Have fun being bored. o/
