"What Kelly didn’t mention, but which has since become well known, is that the Weather Service employee whose job it was to make sure those warnings got traction — Paul Yura, the long-serving meteorologist in charge of “warning coordination” — had recently taken an unplanned early retirement amid cuts pushed by the so-called Department of Government Efficiency. He was not replaced.
To a Washington bean counter, his loss might have looked like one tiny but welcome subtraction in a giant spreadsheet, but not in a region so prone to these perilous events that it’s known as Flash Flood Alley. Hundreds of kids at summer camps slept in cabins along the river. The plan was for folks at the upstream camps to send word to the downstream camps if floodwaters got scary. But if even the highest official in the county wasn’t on high alert, how were the camp counselors supposed to understand the danger — or, in an area without reliable cellphone coverage, to act on it?"

A group of Jewish settlers set a fire near an ancient Christian church in the Palestinian Christian village of Taybeh in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, Nabd El-Haya, a radio station based in the town, has reported.

I used to suspect that the whale statue in front of the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History, aka "Sandy the Gray Whale" was cast from the same moldings as the whale statue in front of the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History.
Having investigated such things again now (despite having been local to the areas in my youth), it appears as if the Santa Cruz equivalent in Tyrrell Park has apparently been updated in 2025 and now has a baby whale companion! Whoa!
So I have no idea about their potential relation anymore!
The whale statue @skinnylatte@hachyderm.io shared is also new to me, but to my eyes? The barnacles do not appear as if they are to a consistent scale. ;)

"just mad at myself for being upset and then feeling bad."
Been there. As a sage friend of mine once phrased it: "I eventually learned to stop beating myself up, for beating myself up."
Admittedly, I am not sure if I figured out that friend's solution for myself? His way of phrasing it was helpful framing to at least attempt to acknowledge when I am caught up in some similar mental anguish loop.
For me, changing scenery is a methodology that I find is sometimes helpful? Going for a walk in nature if possible, far away from humans and their noises is ideal! A babbling brook, raging rapids, or the moon reflected in an ocean with waves crashing seem to be fantastic for me when I can enjoy such things.
Rain drops, while soaking in some rustic hot springs far away from most signs of so-called "civilization"? Better still!
Unfortunately, it is not always easy or possible to change scenery to such realms without significant effort and often expenses.
Simpler things, such as making an herbal tisane, the meditative qualities of watching steam "peel" off the "skin" of the tea cup, help to slow down and be in the moment, a different moment than incessant negative thoughts.
Tea kettles and water and loose leaves are not always readily available.
So perhaps some headphones, and a song, or album, or something musical can be helpful, for me at least, to have another frame of reference when I am in exceedingly urban hellscapes full of human maladies.
Barring that, earplugs.
Admittedly, reducing inputs from the world around me that I find harrowing isn't the be all end all, but a starting point.
If stuck with human trappings and no good tunes are readily available, vegging out to some movies or something similar (ideally: comedic in nature if looking for levity) might be beneficial?
No doubt, if the negative thoughts are persistent (as they often are in my experience) such strategies may be of limited utility, but even temporary distractions can still be welcome in my experience.
WFP's Deputy Executive Director, Karl Skau, stated that the demands on Gaza are at an all-time high, while humanitarian access has been increasingly restricted since the start of the war on October 7, 2023.
Well, Bazzite just obliterated one of the last reasons I was still clinging to Windows 11.
My living room PC has an RTX 3090, yet Windows still won’t run anything at 4K 60fps. It caps out at 4K 30fps or 1080p 60fps—no matter what I do. For years, I blamed the TV. Thought maybe I cheaped out. Spent all this money on a high-end rig, and it never delivered what I wanted.
Then I docked my wife’s Legion Go. It dual-boots Windows 11 and Bazzite.
Guess what? Same problem on Windows. But boot into Bazzite? Boom—4K at 60fps, no issue.
Turns out it wasn’t the TV. It was Windows.
Once again, Linux quietly proves it’s the better OS for gaming.

To avoid confusion, I don't favor Democrats over Republicans, and not the other way around either. I consider them both parasites.
And here's a more controversial opinion: although Mamdani distanced himself from the rest of the herd and went more socialist and offered something more of substance, I am skeptical about him because of his resorting to "vibes".
I prefer boring people who address our minds, not performative entertaining sales persons.
Tbf, in his case I think it's both vibes *and* policy. He's pledged 65 million to trans kids, government owned grocery stores, and his campaign was generally focused on how unaffordable NYC is for working class folk. It's just that he's so charming (and his character has been smeared so constantly) that his policies don't get talked about much.
Absolutely. It's why I said he offered something of substance. His message resonated with people, unlike, say, Kamala Harris.
Perhaps it's just me, I tend to be skeptical whenever someone employs entertainment or vibes; what I call a sales personality. It immediately subtracts from their genuinity.
Maybe he's just trying all possible means and I should give him the benefit of the doubt.
