Please stop flying your personal drones over wildfires. They can ground or collide with our firefighting aircraft, disrupting time critical firefighting and threatening people’s homes. Your photos are not worth someone’s home. If you fly, we can’t.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.

I have a legitimate request. Are you a Baltimorean and did you name your child or pet Adley? Please email me: Andy.kostka@thebanner.com

Welp, pffft. That was not a great game. #Mariners 🔱

I would enjoy it a lot more if the Mariners could score a run. Or two. Or 9. #Mariners 🔱

Awww... how sweet that the Tigers media team made a donation to Rick Rizz' charity in honor of his retirement. #Mariners 🔱

So weird... Gosh, I don't know what cities he's talking about. Seattle, Boston, Atlanta, NYC, LA, San Francisco, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City just hosted visitors from all over the world in the World Cup to rave reviews. I'd trust 6M US and international visitors over one hateful, ignorant old man.

Trump: "Look at the blue cities. What do they have in common? They're all dirty. They're filthy dirty. Their streets are dirty. Their streets smell. Their storefronts are broken. Their trees are all gross. Everything about the place is dirty. It's really all of them."

If you are an expert on air quality and have 10-15 minutes to talk to me today or tomorrow about important things journalists should know while reporting on wildfires and smoke, my DMs are open, or you can email me at karen at OpenNews dot org.

This is Loki, our Maine Coon and the cat of our hearts, and he went missing today. We have no idea how he got out, but he’s an elder, indoor cat, the whole region’s in an intense heat wave, and we’re really scared. I doubt I have any followers here in Martinez, CA, but if so, help? It’s SO hot

I know it's cliche, but I am so impressed that every one of the Mariners, when asked about their individual performance, manages to instantly pivot to the rest of the team and the fans. And it sounds like Colt Emerson got the training! #Mariners 🔱

Hallelujah! Good job, Colt! Phew. #Mariners 🔱

Oh, god love ya, Naylz. That's going to live forever on the interwebz. I hope he's ok! #Mariners 🔱

😬 #Mariners 🔱

Hellllloooo, Cal Raleigh! We've missed you! #Mariners 🔱

Baw - makes me sad to hear them talking about Luis Castillo, how much he meant to the young pitchers, and what he did for the Mariners in general. 😢 #Mariners 🔱

Oh my goodness - Angie, Goldy and Hyphen have me cracking up over the discussion of scoring the games. #Mariners 🔱

Ha ha ha ... USS Hyphen. Good one, Goldy! #Mariners 🔱

If youre not sure where to find evacuation maps and notifications for your area, @wadnr.bsky.social has posted links on their wildfire portal: dnr.wa.gov/wildfire-res...

Thank goodness. Man, that was an ugly walk off and WE DID NOT CARE! Oh, wait, wrong team. Phew! Well done, Ms! #Mariners 🔱

Serious wildland-urban interface (WUI) fire situation in Spokane, WA amid "extremely critical/Particularly Dangerous Situation" fire weather conditions. Two separate fires, #OldTrailsFire & #FairViewFire, are actively burning near/in neighborhoods; mass evacs ongoing. #WAwx

Ok, Mitch Garver might struggle at the plate but I love, love, love his ABS challenge game. #Mariners 🔱

RANDY!!!! Whoo hoooooo! #Mariners 🔱

A bases loaded walk?! Yes! I don't care if it's ugly baseball, it's a run. #Mariners 🔱

Pffft. Here I was committed to having a better attitude about the Mariners and the game today - and then I see the reporting in the Seattle Times that George Kirby might be a trade target?! Nooooo.... #Mariners 🔱

Great vibes adjustment. I might need to watch that one game next. www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6Fu...

Ugh. #Mariners 🔱

I'd be interested to know how many "injury innings" the Ms have accumulated this year, esp compared to last year. Feels like a lot of injuries. Is there such a stat kept somewhere? #Mariners 🔱

I like it better when the Ms hit a lot of dingers and are ahead for the whole game. So much more fun! #Mariners 🔱
