PSA: if someone falls and you canโ€™t safely get them up, call 911 and ask for a โ€œlift assist.โ€ Theyโ€™ll send a crew of nice, strong firemen who are glad to help and have something to do between emergencies to safely get them up. It took 3 firemen to get my mom on her feet. Sheโ€™s fine, nothing hurt.

sub-skeet the singer is named 'Indiana' which is extremely hard to web-search. probably will never see a live performance as I'm within walking / swim distance from a State with that name. phone battery would explode from the google alert ๐ŸŽค
