Hey guys did you know hiring people with darker skin and funny accents causes plane crashes?

Just ask #trump cuz he is blaming the plane accident in #washingtondc on diversity hiring practices.

Not him gutting the FAA like a definition of the stupidest person I know.

You know what the last thing I would ever cut is?

The guy in charge of whether flying planes is perfectly safe or 100% deadly for everyone involved.

Note how the US #medicalcare shitstem falls apart in crises and #disasters. Four hour wait just to unload the ambulance. 😗

Latest ER "wall time" update as of 1/25/24. 4 hour wait time at the ER last night for the medic in the family to unload patients. (not enough beds at the ER/hospital). They were running out of ambulances, so in many cases fire crews (in our county, Medic Engines) will sit with a patient at their home until an ambulance can be freed up for transport. Advice from the medic: "NOW IS NOT THE WEEK TO GET SICK OR GET HURT". (in case you're thinking about doing the Milk Crate Challenge this week).

Marketplace NPR program had a helpful segment on today, with the CA Insurance commish. Except for the part about googling for the phone number, there was some helpful info in there.

Fixed something which has been bothering me for a few years. Every time there's a emergency/disaster, our local amateur radio airwaves go quiet (typically, because local repeaters stop working). So I've taken over the output frequency on the hour (er... more or less on the hour) to provide status updates to anyone who might hear me. Just so people know someone is out there.

(still have phone/Internet around here, so people still can get info... but it's been bugging me for years no one gets on at all to distribute info--not even for practice or to keep everyone fresh).

This photo caught me: a Mexican firefighter who has come to #SoCal to help fight American fires rescued an American kitten

So much for Trump's lies about Mexicans

Don't fly your goddamn drones over fires. It grounded a plane when no one has enough of any of this equipment during a disaster. There is no conceivable scenario where anyone needs to do this.

Drone collides with firefighting aircraft over Palisades fire: FAA

Several viral videos and images appeared to be taken with drones in conflict with a temporary flight restriction issued by the Federal Aviation Administration to protect firefighting aircraft.

I have been trying to keep up with what's going on in Los Angeles County. It's absolutely wild to me that this kind of severe fire event is happening in January. That never happened when I was growing up. The scenes I am seeing in my feeds are heartbreaking.

Aloha from Maui.
