One of my biggest pet peeves is drivers who don’t use their turn signals, which is >80% of them in Hawaiʻi. We need to stop putting the onus on people doing the dying rather than people doing the killing.

Write a horror story for academics in two words: It’s August.

I visited my former neighbor after work and helped out with some chores at her new home. Then we sat outside and talked story (as we say in Hawaiʻi). It was a great way to spend a few hours.

I'm trying to convince her to give up driving and get rides and delivery instead. It's a work in progress.
