Does a Crossroads card still trigger if its outcome cannot be carried out, such as Maria Lopez having nowhere to go?
The designer agreed with the final ruling that a card triggers when its trigger clause is true; the rulebook covers the unmet-option case.

Yes. A card triggers whenever its italic trigger clause is true, whether or not you can carry out the outcome afterward. The designer endorsed this as the final ruling and withdrew his earlier, different one. Once it triggers, the rulebook says that if you cannot meet an option's conditions you must choose the other.
