MEXICO CITY, July 14 (Reuters) - A floating barrier of orange buoys put in the Rio Grande by the Texan government to hinder migrants crossing into the U.S. violates a water treaty and may encroach on Mexican territory, incoming Mexican Foreign Minister Alicia Barcena said on Friday.
"We have sent a diplomatic letter (to the U.S.) on 26 June because in reality what it is violating is the water treaty of 1944," Barcena told reporters in Mexico City, referring to the Mexican Water Treaty between the U.S. and Mexico that covers the use of water from the Colorado, Tijuana and Rio Grande rivers.
"We are sending a mission, a territorial inspection," Barcena added, "to see where the buoys are located... to carry out this topographical survey to verify that they do not cross into Mexican territory."
The U.S. State Department and the office of Texas Governor Greg Abbott did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Barcena was named foreign minister last month but is still awaiting formal confirmation by Mexico's Senate.
On Friday, the Texan government said in a statement that it had this week begun installing the "new floating marine barriers along the Rio Grande River in Eagle Pass."
It said the buoys will "help deter illegal immigrants attempting to make the dangerous river crossing into Texas."
Many migrants have drowned trying to cross the river in recent years but some experts fear the buoys may only increase the risk of crossing.
Earlier this month, four migrants drowned in the Rio Grande. Last September nine migrants died and 37 were rescued as they tried to cross the rain-swollen river near Eagle Pass.

I am so impressed with my orange cat. I've been working with him on finding a good spot in my office where he will be comfortable and feel involved but not WALKING ON THINGS that he should not be walking on, and not stealing my new ergo chair because I need my chair.
The trick?
I got a blanket for him (a cute 100% cotton waffle-weave blanket from Ikea! Win-win for cheap price yet washable and looks nice) and put that blanket in my older office chair, and adjusted the arm rests reallllly low so he can use them as chin rests.
Now, after he has his lunch in the kitchen, he trots into the office, heads straight for His Office Chair, jumps in, circles around a few times, and then settles down for a purrfest before taking an afternoon lap.
Me? I can wheel his office chair close to mine so he feels Involved Managing(r) Important(tm) Work(c). When he gets into the "I'm cute? right? I'm soooo cute??" posture signaling that he needs belly rubs and chin rubs, no problem for me.
The only downside is that I have my main desk set up in a U-shaped "everything in reach" workzone and his chair blocks me in. Might need to move my desk and half-height set of storage drawers (and extra table top) forward a few inches to widen the U-gap but otherwise --- after so much struggle over who gets my chair, all has been solved WITH A WAFFLE WEAVE BLANKET.

small hydro archon rocking tall ass heels is great. but the hydro archon wearing tall heels and failing miserably at walking in them is even funnier :)
it's all part of her secret plan to constantly be clinging onto you like a koala because she is a hazard to everyone and herself when in heels so you just. pick her up - eros
not the hydro archon bullying D:
But I agree, hydro archon fumbling so badly you HAVE to carry her. Although I doubt that was part of her plan. Her plan was to be taller than you so you couldn't make fun of her anymore. It failed horribly :)
So she makes you pick her up! New plan, become a hinderance and a hazard. There's a reason most of the hydro characters have healing abilities, it's because their archon is a dunce (affectionate)

Having to parse 30 year old forest conservation easements for my day job is why I don’t read books anymore.

So, it's currently about 10°C outside, I need to wear a jacket inside, and my upstairs tenants are running MULTIPLE air conditioners.
Are my tenants (on an "utilities included" rental agreement) being assholes, or is this just "landlord brain" kicking in? 'Cuz seriously, I can't afford the bill from the ppl upstairs, & they don't seem to give a shit... am I missing something?
#also they've moved an extra person in without declaring them as an occupant#remember: I'm paying for the hot water & any extra utility use#how much of an asshole would I he for charging them for a 10% share of the electric & gas bill for the person they LIED about?#1/10 seems like a eay more reasonable amount than‚ say#the 1/6 I could challenge for based on OCCUPANCY rather than assumed use...#but. like. the tenant said her bf would be gone by the end of January & it's March#& I set the rent on the part of my home I don't NEED to cover what my crippled ass couldn't of the mortgage+taxes#so this isn't about profit‚ it's about a crippled queer holding onto a home that cost half a meter of intestine+#+& tyese assholes already stored thete rancid trash by my dad's sweaters#-blocking access to the fucking fuse box!-#'cuz I told them I don't NEED 100% of the space the contact gave me & didn't mind them using the extra to a reasonable degree...#& my mom can't even pull fully into my side of the driveway 'cuz the L driver took my spot#& they're pissing off the neighbours#who are calling the city#basically they're screwing me over 😬🖖#they literally told me that one tenant's partner was staying til the end of January#I didn't agree to pay for him to do laundry until MAY!#& I bought a YEAR'S worth of dryer sheets in January & the box is almost empty...#like. srsly#I'm also charging like 10% below average‚ NOT including the utilities agreement#I am being as fair as I can while still feeding myself#aita for being pissed off about this?#Edit: there's 4 declared occupant; i didn't raise the rent when they wnt from 3#to 4 tenants b/c I had accounted for a 4th 'guest'#5 is where I start having issues#especially when he's been here 'a couple of months' in MAY when I was told he was leaving in JANUARY...
