You are in the 5th row of a soccer stadium, looking out across a pitch dotted with players in either gold or black kits. The blue sky is filled with plumes of yellow, orange, and red smoke

This is a screenshot of an Internet speed test. The Energizer Park wi-fi is significantly worse than last season. Download speed is 6 Mbps and packet loss is a crazy high 14.1%. This is probably a clever strategy from the club to make sure fans spend less time on their phones and more time watching the game.

There was a gaggle (parliament? bevy?) of furries outside Union Station. Some in full suits, others just with heads & hands. It was not clear if they were City SC fans or Charlotte FC fans.

This agreement is thanks to personal growth and deep breaths on my part. For many years I subscribed to the shriek & smash strategy.

I ran into one of the basement spiders again. I pleaded with him to stick to our agreement - which is that he is free to kill (eat? collect?) the other pests & I won't smash him, but he's gotta stay away from me. After a brief staring contest, he relented.

Agreed. Bummed to lose another Brendan but it does feel like the team is getting a fresh start and trajectory is now in the right direction (up).

I also got multiple answers, including a trance track that sounds nothing like it but at least the name is vaguely related to Olympic medals...

Be skeptical of larger accounts (or any accounts) that post seemingly relevant videos without any credit or sourcing. Maybe it's real, but maybe it's not! Don't automatically trust people whose livelihood depends on clicks.

CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

A wooden board is on the ground next to a black abandoned rollator, surrounded by dead grass and leaves. A utility pole with metal cladding is in the foreground. The hill in the background is covered with barren trees and separates us from the train tracks. Life has moved on from this place.

You are looking between two squatty buildings. The one on the left is white brick, and the one on the right is corrugated metal. The grass on the ground is dead and covered with muddy tire tracks. There is an unattended trash fire on the ground between you and the red pickup truck you see in the distance. The sky is grey and the 45 degree air is crisp but smells like burning plastic.

Today's walk encountered an abandoned rollator next to the train tracks plus a small trash fire #stlwx

Oh, good to know. As in, the break has caused contamination & hydrants can clear that out?

I saw these two hydrants open on Wherry... what is the reason that they'd be open? #stlwx

Really feels like an easy win for the City. Put some heat on biz owners to clear sidewalks & the claim (partial) credit! Missed opportunity for admin that literally campaigned on how they'd be better at snow clearing.

Snow covered street, looking North. A few leaf-less trees line the street, as well as a couple cars on the right side.

Side streets not looking as good, but cars still able to get around. This was Oleatha & Brannon.
