Tewa Women United put this resource list together to support those impacted by the fire, as well as those who wish to help in some way. Websites and apps have been vetted for the quality of their information: https://tewawomenunited.org/2026/08/frijoles-fire-resource-page

And the Grenfell disaster still has the power to shock:

The cladding company Arconic paid more to shareholders for the financial damage caused by their role in the fire than they paid to the actual victims....

Given that the insurers paid out most of the money, it makes it all the clearer that investors' economic welfare is regarded as more costly than the loss of real lives.

This is capitalism at its sociopathic worse!

If anyone is looking for a job based out of Belmont, CA, my brother’s elevator construction company is hiring. It’s not much money to start with but I know things are rough with jobs out there so if this helps anyone… it has benefits so that’s something.

He really likes working for Star elevators with the caveat that he works in the field and doesn’t know how the office culture is.

Anyway, pass it on if helpful. #sfba #belmont #jobsearch #employment

Today I learned via my workplace manual handling training that all the gay in the body is stored in the spine

With the green chiles reaching seasonal maturity, the cheeseburger herds begin their annual grazing migration down the New Mexico Green Chile Cheeseburger Trail to become green chile cheeseburgers.

(The story is fiction unless you are what you eat, but the trail, the cheeseburgers, the green chile, and even #NewMexico are real.)

Mexico is putting $1.15 billion into cleaning up three of its most polluted rivers: the Atoyac, the Tula and the Lerma-Santiago. Alongside treatment plants and sewer collectors, the programme has identified 479 illegal dumps, reforested thousands of hectares and regulated hundreds of industrial discharge points. First-phase works are 85% and 90% complete. Mexico Business News https://mexicobusiness.news/infrastructure/news/mexico-commits-mx20-billion-restore-three-major-rivers

Apparently the US is getting a professional cricket league?

This is excellent! If we have a bunch of cricket ovals scattered about, we might as well also start a professional Australian Football League! I am extremely down for this! How do I invest?

This path has been walked before. I wonder if it'll clean my iPod as well.

I wonder if the Pope and the Patriarch have money on the Sox/Cubs game. Maybe they bet souls?

Me, every time I drive through Knoxville.

Ok, that was damned good! Garcia’s Bistro in Salem, VA. Worth a stop!

Stopped for lunch at a taco place in Virginia. A truck with #NewMexico plates is in the lot. Hopefully that’s a good sign!
