i've been ruined by the phrase "i'm sorry women" i'm literally addicted to it. bumped into a guy on the train and automatically said "i'm sorry women" with a completely straight face. he didn't even ask me to repeat myself. one look at my face and he knew i was beyond help.

to anyone in the areas impacted by the wildfire smoke, my #1 biggest piece of advice as someone whos been dealing with wildfire smoke in the NW united states for years, is build yourself a Corsi-Rosenthal Cube

they perform as well as expensive HEPA air cleaners, and are comparatively VERY inexpensive. all you need is a box fan, 4 air filters, a piece of cardboard, and some duct tape!!!!

i think it took us maybe a half hour to put ours together, if that, and we replace the filters every 3 months. it's really made a HUGE difference, both when the air quality is bad, but also with our allergies

Saw these easy to read instructions on Twitter. Stay safe 💚

thinking of this legend tonight

I know this happens and it looks suspicious but

this image? we have every reason to think it is a cucumber, like it was made in clay models in burials period, it's painted green, it's on the small side of things (9.6 cm or 3 3/4 inch)

oh right and it was placed on a model offering table with small model bread and drinking cup

sometimes a cucumber really is a cucumber.

hey so Los Angeles is in crisis right now.

Multiple concurrent wildfires are happening, two of which are extremely devastating. The Palisades Fire, which at this time is the deadliest wildfire in LA history, has burned 18 square miles worth of land and destroyed over 1,000 structures. The Eaton Fire has burned over 10,000 acres. And the Santa Ana winds are rapidly escalating the fires to where containment at this time is borderline nonexistent and firefighters are at a loss for what to do. People have died. The air is extremely hard to breathe from smoke. Elderly, disabled and transient populations are at great risk. Even 20 miles south and 30 miles west of the Palisades and Eaton Fires, the smoke is so bad that there are air quality alerts and the moon is red at night. These have been called “catastrophic urban firestorms” and the people affected need your compassion.

If you are directly affected by the Eaton or Palisades Fires, here is a list of safe evacuation centers:

The DreamCenter is also taking evacuees.

I’ll reblog when I can with more information for shelters but in the meantime please signal boost and add your own information if and when possible.

Big shout out to Compton Cowboys.

Text SHELTER and your zip code to 43362 to find a local shelter near you.

Please make sure to bring your meds, extra clothes, hygiene supplies, diapers, and important documents. Some shelters are accepting small pets, but they’re going fast.

Thank you to the person who started this. I’ll keep posting stuff if I see it. Be safe! 💖

I would like to add that resources are extremely limited, and with how populated the areas affected are, shelters are at risk of being stretched thin.

Here is a list of verified organizations accepting donations in the wake of the fires:

• CALIFORNIA FIRE FOUNDATION
• AMERICAN RED CROSS
• LA COUNTY FIRE DEPARTMENT FOUNDATION

TELADOC is offering free virtual 24/7 services for all non-emergency illnesses to first responders, residents affected by the wildfires, and Southern California residents. Call Teladoc at 855-225-5032 if you are in need of non-emergency medical assistance or for non-narcotic prescriptions.
