Every interaction this week is essentially going to be: “Hot enough for ya?” “At least it’s a dry heat.” [repeat hourly]

Brian Fies, a local comic artist, wrote and illustrated a book telling his and his wife’s story from that night. I still haven’t been able to read past the part where he returns to find his entire neighborhood is gone. 😭

I stick with Apple Maps. I’ve found the notifications of traffic delays, speed traps, and hazards in the road to be quite reliable. Only issue is that when I shows a couple alternative routes, there’s always one that’s laughably bad because it’s like an extra 50 miles and takes another hour. Why?!

Cops are great.

Cops wouldn’t like that.

On my phone, I’ve used Apple Maps instead of Google Maps for years. I think I need to stop using Google Maps on my laptop too. So terrible!

I may still have PTSD related to Tubbs and my home escaped that, but damn it was too close for comfort!

Elon Musk supported the bill, so it couldn’t have been that great.

I’ve seen people at the airport in Portland with live lobsters, but fortunately they’re in a box which I’ve never seen spill open. …but if Portland had a subway, I guarantee lobster spills would be common.
