My folks lost their home in one of Oregon’s wildfires—it was their home for over 30 years and the one I grew up in. Thanks to insurance and government help, they’ve managed to rebuild. I’d love more of a spotlight on how government can help those who lose their homes due to climate change.

I was super confused when I started a movie on Disney+ and it played commericals, since I have the commercial free version—apparently it’s Hulu movies? We have Hulu without commericals too! So confusing.

It’s pretty amazing that Candyland started out as a crazy hard horror themed board game that got watered down. The Gumdrop Forest was haunted.
