Tens of thousands of people attending the Burning Man festival in the Nevada desert are being told to conserve food, water and fuel as they shelter in place in the Black Rock Desert after a heavy rainstorm pummeled the area, festival organizers said.
The gate and airport into Black Rock City, a remote area in northwest Nevada, remain closed and no driving is allowed into or out of the city except for emergency vehicles, the organizers said on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
“Do not travel to Black Rock City! Access to the city is closed for the remainder of the event, and you will be turned around,” one statement read.
The city is expecting more showers and thunderstorms on Sunday before 5 p.m. local time, organizers said in a weather forecast update.

I wonder if this will be used as a metric ever. When switching a prominent company name, how long it takes to fully adopt.

I’ve always wondered who, this bunch of rich yuppie fucks, think the man being burnt is supposed to represent?
Well at least now they can experience the real disconnection from society.

I got stuck at a festival once the same way. We were stuck for 3 days. It was pretty fun. Everyone just piled all the food and booze in a pile and shared.
