Also tooting my thoughts about urban living, my LDS faith, family life, and some other random stuff from time to time.

🌡️ HEAT ADVISORY until 23:00 Wed
🔥 RED FLAG WARNING until 23:00 Wed

Sunny, hazy, and hot with a high near 35°C. Breezy and dry this afternoon and evening promoting extreme behavior including during peak time. If there was ever a day to be an anti personal firework evangelist, it’s today.

Similar conditions tomorrow; temperatures moderating toward the weekend.

ingalls,

@ai6yr indeed

iMike, to pnw

Fear not, pals. Only 3.5 months until rainy season!

ingalls,

@iMike Hopefully we start getting a slash of it in August.

ingalls,

@iMike such is my wishcast

My wife said I “literally could not overdo the pineapple on her side of our pizza” and “go crazy with it” and I took that as a challenge.

Update when she comes downstairs.

ingalls,

Update: “Just a note, not a critique, any amount of pineapple is fine but now there’s not enough out of that can to have two meals.”

Will try again next time.

ingalls,

@BigAngBlack ask me in 20 years

ingalls,

@enobacon I don’t know but she didn’t complain. I did drain the can before pulling spoonfuls out, though, so it’s not like they were soaked.

A DUI conviction should come with confiscation of your vehicle (if you own one) and a permanent ban on driving. The same goes for if you kill someone in a crash you cause.

First grocery run by . Also grabbed some cold stuff bags from Trader Joe’s that will go perfectly on the side when I put my running boards on.

According to Washington DNR, all six major Cascade wildfires started over the weekend were started by idiots using fireworks.

I hate to be that guy but modern gender reveal pageantry is ridiculous to me.

Someone is cutting down and burning flags in https://kutv.com/news/local/police-seeking-information-after-multiple-pride-flags-burned-in-salt-lake-city-lgbtq-vandalism

ingalls,

@ai6yr Pikachu shock.

ai6yr, to random

I'm hoping someone just hit the wrong button... or perhaps mastodon.social has acquired some Chinese state-run accounts that don't like this NPR coverage. 🙄

ingalls,

@ai6yr Looks like growing pains to me.

I’m so excited we have a functional @nadocast_bot on Mastodon thank you @ai6yr.

My three year old daughter has a little wooden “weather station” where she turns dials to show what the #weather is outside and recently she has started calling it her work.

US government officials have relied too heavily on social media to pass along emergency alerts rather than improving what were once robust stand-alone systems.

These systems still exist and reach the vast majority of Americans (NOAA weather radio is the main one), but the technology is severely outdated because they’ve just twiddled their thumbs and were comfortable with social media because it was easy.

My kid ate it hard today during but jumped right back up and kept going on her . More astonishingly, she somehow has no scrapes or bruises. Gosh dang I wish I had the durability of a three year old.

ingalls, to twitter

Maybe for-profit corporations shouldn’t be the backbone of emergency information communication.

Big turnout in SE today.

ingalls,

@enobacon More than just a weatherman it seems 😂

ai6yr, to twitter

Hmm, it appears the I have here that clone are finally dead, with the switch for the birdsite to require login to view tweets. There is an extensive list of alternative weather bots that @lckrohjr and myself have running (the IEMBOT). I am going to swap the bots to pull weather stories/etc., but will be some time. BIGGER ISSUE: NWS TORNADO BOT WILL NOT RUN.

ingalls,

@ai6yr @lckrohjr The one I know of off the top of my head is @nwsportland_bot but I don’t know the status post-Twitter login change.
