Getting prion disease from crops?

I’ve anecdotally had a fine time using Apple Maps since I switched a few years ago. Just wanted to mention there is a setting to avoid tolls; Settings->Maps->Driving will bring up a toggle. It’ll still give you the option, but it won’t default if it’s the shortest route.

Yeah, I joke that California does have four seasons - they’re just Summer, Wildfire, and Mudslide. Possible Earthquake to shake things up.

But to be fair, it is a long state. SoCal gets most of the attention, but NorCal gets some great seasons as you get closer to the PNW

You’d think, but it can be difficult to save up moving costs for a long distance haul + deposits + getting a new job lined up while living paycheck to paycheck.

Long time resident of California (SoCal in particular), can confirm haughtiness. I’ve grown increasingly prideful of my state for holding strong on specific human right issues.

You’re also right about the increasing disparity though. It feels like stratification is getting stronger and stronger each year. The Beach Cities area in particular, from my experience, where they’re building a bunch of (very expensive) flats. California has had a history of states shipping homeless/refugees to us and that doesn’t help our increasing number of state-grown displacements.

My main issue is title formatting. I don’t dislike the TIL bot, but I do dislike the long title being cut off in my app.

Header got cut off for me; full quote for anyone else it happened to.

DeVoe sat in the control room and quietly listened to the recordings, and pressed the band at the end on why there was no “Blink-182 good-time summer anthem [thing]”. DeLonge and Hoppus were furious, remarking, “You want a fucking single? I’ll write you the cheesiest, catchiest, throwaway fucking summertime single you’ve ever heard!”[1][5] Hoppus went home and wrote “The Rock Show” in ten minutes, and DeLonge similarly wrote “First Date”, which became the most successful singles from the record and future live staples.[4]

Firstly these are both inspired and adorable, but I also love how open you are about players using the files!
