When you've reached Tuesday night after a Monday you realize you should've taken off, finding four pieces of homemade fried chicken in the fridge is a godsend.
2026 is a year of rural fire, Daniel Swain @weatherwest.bsky.social, climate scientist @ucanr.edu, told @nancywalecki.bsky.social “This is an extraordinary fire season in the American West. It just hasn’t been in California”
If you want to know what this fire season has been like, talk to the ranchers spending 36 straight hours on military surplus dozers from the Vietnam War... so I did! Best part of reporting this story was trying to get ranchers to brag about themselves :) www.theatlantic.com/science/2026...
EMS tips for adult caregivers: Please, I beg y’all, if you are a caregiver for a parent or adult patient- have the conversation about DNR and Advanced Directives. Full codes are a traumatic event for the patient and the family. Get the DNR or AD and have a copy on the fridge 💜
💯 & while you're at it: If you have relationships with them, try to ensure you know what's up with their will/estate, medical/financial power of attorney, beneficiaries are up to date on all financial accts & life insurance policies, details of trust documents... Even if you think they don't have $

Important kitty support needed, both for the cats and to make sure someone's remaining time can be spent knowing their kitties will be loved when they're gone. These are the moments that make us human. So do read, and consider, if you can. If not, spread the word.
FRIENDS IN THE NYC AREA: Okay, this is a tough one, but please bear with me. My wife's lifelong friend has stage 4 pancreatic cancer and is desperately seeking a home for his two cats when that time comes. The elder, Wally, is something like 13 years old and DELIGHTFULLY dim. The younger, Doris,
Destroyer hoon! Fantastic thread, an epitome of man shall be known by his enemies.
Roope's nickname among his crew was 'Old Ardover', a nod to his penchant for treating Glowworm like something from Tokyo Drift. This is what he now did, dropping smoke and throwing the ship hard over, engines screaming, to try and get into cover before the German ships could get firing solutions /6
Blazing Saddles really had a joke for every single fucked up occasion in our current life 
"Yoink!" the dragon said. "That's mine now." I took a breath to protest but was distracted by being able to take a breath. I took a few more, without a coughing fit. "You healed me?" "Pff. Why would I do that? I stole your cough for my hoard." "You hoard illnesses? I can help you find more!"

So, what does that mean for women's hockey? $12 billion gets a lot of ice time and twigs.
so Mark Walter, who was at the White House recently, is under investigation by the Trump administration and just so happened to abruptly sell one of America’s premier sports franchises to the brother of Trump’s son in law 🤔
Life goals. Also, drinking copious amounts of coffee and tea as a job requirement.
