Finally got to talk to my parents. This being so far is so fucking hard, I just want to hug them both. They seem frazzled and shocked but otherwise okay, and are in their cabin in Montana as the paperwork begins. They’re lucky to have a place to rest, where many don’t.

Die #Klimakrise setzt Europas Stromversorgung unter Druck. Wegen Kühlwassermangels müssen fossile und #Kernkraftwerke gedrosselt werden. #Windkraft und #Photovoltaik brauchen dagegen kein Kühlwasser. Gut, dass Deutschland auf erneuerbare Energien setzt.
So, I am writing a post about "why Bending Spoons picking up Airtable is everything bad in tech right now" — which questions do you want to make sure I answer in the piece?

I was filling out a new patient form and accidentally submitted it with only this in the “Please list current stressors in your life” input Meant to add more but you know what I think this captures it well enough
I like to think of myself as an abolitionist when it comes to prisons but this guy that set the fire in Spokane is testing my beliefs

I was on the scene that day and watched people flag police down to talk to someone walking away from the fire. My law enforcement sources confirmed to me this evening my description of the person I saw was consistent with the suspect. Here’s the story so far: www.spokesman.com/stories/2026...

Me: How did you get in to see the cemetery if the roads are blocked? Brother: I ask the officers if they are going to arrest me for walking by them, they say no and I walk by. I’m 4th generation here, IDGAF. We are a feisty lot 😂
Small miracle: the internment is okay. The fire stopped just short. My brother went up this morning to check before we told parents.
And in the universe’s sickest joke yet, the family plot is in the cemetery that the fire also swept through. I hope for my mom’s sake the concrete interment didn’t burn.
A big eff you to the drone operators in the Spokane fires area. 26 incidents yesterday interfered with air support. #spokanefires
