I’m also reminded of a time in the fourth grade in Amarillo, Texas, when our teacher had posted an American Sign Language alphabet on the wall for the year. My classmates and I started using it to communicate, and eventually the teacher got frustrated at our distractions (understandable). In order to stop the distractions, he ripped the poster off the wall – not realizing that he’d actually been effective in teaching us the alphabet in ASL. We didn’t need that poster anymore. Taking this curriculum away, or relegating it to the outside the core, does not eradicate the knowledge from students’ minds. They will find ways to understand how politics, gender, sexuality, and more are used to divide us – whether in the classroom or not.

A reminder that nobody has done the reading, and if you do that alone you’ll soon find yourself absurdly ahead of the curve

On Wednesday, September 16, Huntington Beach Fire Department Marine Safety lifeguards were notified of a possibly injured sea turtle near Surfside. They later discovered the turtle was laying eggs. Our lifeguards responded, established a perimeter, and coordinated with Seal Beach Lifeguards before notifying the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Three days later, on September 19, HBFD Marine Safety lifeguards responded to another sea turtle sighting near the Huntington Beach Pier and discovered the turtle laying eggs. They immediately established a perimeter and notified the appropriate agencies. NOAA personnel returned to the area yesterday to establish a more permanent protected perimeter around the nesting site. The City of Huntington Beach is grateful to our local, state, and federal partners for their quick response and continued efforts to protect these sea turtles and their nesting sites. From NOAA: An olive ridley sea turtle was observed digging a nest and laying eggs on a beach near Seal Beach in Orange County, CA, on 16 September 2026. This is the first-ever recorded natural nesting for any sea turtle species on the U.S. West Coast. Three days later, a sea turtle was observed again on the beach a few miles south, near the Huntington Beach Pier. It is unclear at this time whether this is the same or a different turtle. The team will monitor the nest throughout the incubation period, which typically lasts for 45-60 days. Both areas are fenced, protected, and have interpretive signage. We urge beachgoers to steer clear and not disturb the sites. Olive ridley turtles are the smallest of the sea turtles: adults weigh up to 100 lbs. and are about 2.5 to 3’ in length. They are estimated to live about 30-50 years. These sea turtles are found worldwide, primarily in the tropical waters of the Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic oceans. Major Pacific nesting populations span Mexico, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. While occasionally seen in Southern California following warm currents, this species has never been documented to nest in the United States. What can you do? • Keep your distance. Give nesting sites plenty of space, and don't disturb the fencing or signage. • Spot a sea turtle? The public can play an important role in protecting turtles and helping our experts by reporting sightings using this survey123.arcgis.com/share/d…. • Found a stranded sea turtle? Call the NOAA Fisheries West Coast Stranding Hotline at(562) 506-4315. A big thank you to our partners @USFWS, @CDFW, @huntington_beach_lifeguards, @cityofhb, huntington_beach_fire, @sealbeach_lifeguard+ Bolsa Chica Ecological Preserve, US Navy Seal Beach, @cityofsealbeachca, surfside lifeguards, Seaside Colony Communication Association, @aquariumpacific, and many others for their quick response and help monitoring these important sites. Sea turtles are protected under the Endangered Species Act. The inter-agency team responsible for monitoring and protecting these turtles took all accompanying media. We remind the public to keep a respectful distance from these animals and the protected nesting sites.

extremely this and it is infuriating. This is why I work in healthtech now, it needs SO much fixing

OH "jira is such a *sensible* trash bin, it has good handles! ...give it a second kick, it pops open..."

Rude really but glad you’re convinced

oof I used slmoving.com/ last time and they were surprisingly cheap and did well (and last-minute scheduling was surprisingly possible) Previously I used onebigman.com/ for smaller moves in the bay area and they were also fine

rain, hail, lighting, thunder, sunshine repeat

Sounds like someone needs some elasticsearch Not that it's not a huge pain to run, but worth it I guess if you care and have too much scale even with sharding to use postgres built in tsquery postgresql.org/docs/current/… Region/lang/keyword subquery tho could help 💭
