This is not just about cleanliness it reflects a difference in upbringing and awareness. While adults left their water bottles scattered everywhere, a 3-year-old child picked up over 20 bottles and showed that good manners are not age-dependent.

@IChilberg NC! That was one of the places I was considering, before I met my husband. We settled in Fallbrook. You would still enjoy Fallbrook, just not the rest. I do miss hearing his voice - and enjoyed what silliness he displayed on the news. We do get to see him on YT ❤️ Ty 4 sharing.

@mbta535 Fled CA in 2016 for NC. I miss Old Town and Hodad’s in Ocean Beach but I’d probably cry seeing what’s become of it under Newscum. I lived my teenage years in Bonsall and went to Fallbrook High. John was a goof. He loved saying KYOUUUUUUUSI. Wow. That was 1999.

Bill Gates: “You can either fix the cows, or make beef without the cow.” Thoughts?

A large tank at an aerospace factory in Garden Grove started leaking. The chemical inside - methyl methacrylate, or MMA - is a clear liquid used to make airplane canopies and strong glues for aircraft parts. When air got in through the leak, the chemical began to harden and turn solid…just like superglue or epoxy does when you leave the tube open. This hardening process creates a lot of heat. With thousands of gallons reacting at once, the heat keeps building and speeds up the reaction even more. This “runaway” effect has raised the tank’s temperature, damaged the tank walls, and is releasing toxic fumes. Timeline • May 21, 2026 (Thursday, ~3:40 p.m.): The 34,000-gallon tank at the GKN Aerospace facility in Garden Grove develops a leak. Air reaches the roughly 7,000 gallons of MMA inside, starting an exothermic curing reaction. Orange County Fire Authority responders arrive on scene on Western Avenue. • May 21–22, 2026: Heat from the reaction builds quickly. The temperature of the material rises from normal room temperature to about 90 °F. Toxic vapors begin venting from the tank and internal pressure starts to increase. • May 22–24, 2026: Evacuation orders are issued and expanded for safety. Approximately 40,000 residents in Garden Grove and nearby areas are told to leave. GKN Aerospace chemists and local hazmat teams monitor the tank around the clock and work on cooling and containment steps. • As of May 25, 2026: The tank is still unstable. The runaway chemical reaction continues, and emergency crews remain on site performing damage-control operations. The liquid MMA itself is highly toxic. If the tank fails completely, thousands of gallons could spill into storm drains and waterways, causing serious long-term environmental damage. At the same time, the ongoing heat and gas buildup raise the danger of a sudden pressure-related rupture or explosion that could send a large cloud of toxic vapors over this heavily populated part of Southern California. The situation has not been brought under control.

@ABC7 Suggesting they've run to Staples for a shredder?

@mbta535 I had the privilege of working with him at KUSI in San Diego. He was a real character but also a sweet wonderful man.

@IChilberg I AM JEALOUS! Tell me more - pick 1 of your favorite memories. Are you still local?

@ShadowofEzra Not my responsibility to keep up with your fear agenda.

The CEO of BlackRock, Larry Fink, admits that the trillions of dollars being used to build data centers and power grids will come from ordinary people’s savings accounts and pension funds, and says it is mandatory. He says America needs trillions in AI infrastructure spending, and that people will be forced to “invest” in it. “Much of this will come from savings accounts and pension accounts.”

@squawk_hawk Some of those funky angles. Interesting how nature knows to respect borders.

@kungfu_zombie @Fact Your pronoun. 😉

@Fact I should change my name to that

When you walk into a room and you forget why you walked in there in the first place is the phenomenon known as "event boundary."

@Movies_analyst Cathartic. 😉

Before Falling Down (1993), Michael Douglas planned to take a break after shooting 2 films back to back until Joel Schumacher told him to read the script, which Douglas liked the script so much that he even accepted a lower salary and still considers it his favorite performance.

@CAgovernor @Cal_OES Your state, your problem. Hasn't exploded yet. You've got plenty of $B stashed. You just don't want to use your own money.

We have requested that President Trump issue an emergency declaration to support response operations in Orange County. For more than 48 hours, @Cal_OES and state agencies have been on the ground supporting impacted communities, protecting public safety, and assisting local officials as response efforts continue. Please continue following guidance from emergency officials.

@ericmmatheny As my patience must grow.

Legitimately curious to hear your thoughts… In your day-to-day interactions with people, do you find that people are less intelligent today than in years past?

@IChilberg He knows. He's peddling his grifter art. He just needs people to believe him. There's an economy backing him up. John Coleman was the best. He was our local guy. ❤️🇺🇲🫡

@DavidJHarrisJr If that ignorant jackass Gates had any common sense he’d know there’s a LOT more methane coming out of the oceans than bovines. The whole anthropogenic climate change hoax has been debunked. Gates still hasn’t caught on. Arrogant dipsh*t 🙄

@DavidJHarrisJr He's a cow.

“The Flintstones” had some wild commercials in the 1960s

Iwo Jima veterans Billy Byrd (100) and Don Graves (101) flew to Washington, D.C., where they will serve as Honorary Grand Marshals for the National Memorial Day Parade. 🇺🇸 The first thing they did when they saw each other? Started talking trash. Some things never change. 🤣

Photo I recently found of my Dad. Had not seen it before this year. He was "Head Honcho" of Kadena AFB. 1970s. Dad's family had 5 boys - they all served. #MemorialDay #Military #Okinawa @Habubrats71 We would watch the Habu fly over the ocean, from our home at Torii Station.
