So many dumb people.

The status is NOT quo.
We, too, appear to live in the same Nextdoor neighborhood.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I still get a little panicky when the fridge light goes out. Dude, the fridge light is a damn constant--if it's not working, what's next? Is the world ending?
Yes, I can survive without flush toilets and running water, but man, don't take my fridge light away. Power's out? Okay then, I just won't open the door till it's back on, and the world makes sense again.
I'll be okay.

In my neighborhood we have less of a problem with people stealing packages and more with the post office delivering them at all. It's one particular carrier--the ones before him were great.

Punishingly Intricate
NextDoor shows us that terrible people are the same all over! (Also, nice ones.)

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Report him. Back in the early 2000s a lot of my mail came late and partially opened (but never the letters that were obviously bills or junk mail). The last straw was when the metal "We Can Do It" sign I sent to meara got returned and my mail carrier bent it over the arched mailbox rather than leave it at the apartment office or my door. Cue me going on the warpath and filling out a formal written complaint in front of the postmaster.
The carrier later left a message on my answering machine begging me to drop the complaint, so I'm pretty sure I at least got her put on some sort of probation with the USPS.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I am already ready for today to be over.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I've never checked out nextdoor but perhaps I should. Or not. I assume ours would be a recap of the same car thefts I hear about in the neighborhood watch emails.
I have writing and reading to do for work. Will it get done? Who knows? Tune in later to find out!
This is quite possibly the best argument I've yet heard against Amazon using drones.
Speaking of drones, there was one hovering over my campus yesterday followed by an onslaught of police helicopters. Not sure what that was about.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Since the word "drone" has apparently expanded from "military Predator drone" to include RC quadcopters, I get SUPER confused at news stories about "drones" that turn out to be RC devices.
