My personal favourite is "But if $A gets that accommodation, then everybody else will want it too!"

Can't have that, now, can we?

@wendynather What was that sound? It was the resale price of the iPhone 15 and earlier doubling.

They each handle different things. For example, the sheriff department takes care of the petty bribery and theft while the police department is there for assaults, kidnappings and shootings.

Sometimes they even investigate crimes too.

"Hello and welcome to the Springfield Police Department Res-Cue-Phone. If you know the name of the felony being committed, press 1. To choose from a list of felonies, press 2. If you are being murdered or are calling from a rotary phone, please stay on the line..."

"You have selected regicide. If you know the name of the king or queen being murdered, press ONE."

So, just ten more years, and then we can play it?

It's just a terrifying world full of pronouns out there.

@Lana
I'll see those nine pronouns and raise her another thirty-six.

I, we, you, he, she, it, they, one, who, what, which, me, us, him, her, them, whom, each other, one another, myself, ourselves, yourself, yourselves, himself, herself, itself, themselves, oneself, mine, ours, yours, his, hers, its, theirs, whose, of what, of which, each other's, one another's, my, our, your, their, one's... *breathe*

That sounds terrifying. How can they live in a world with so much grammar in it?

@mcc The air quality readings are bad mostly because of high PM2.5 counts. A properly fitting N95 will filter out the majority of that so it's _safer_, but it's still recommended not to go outside unless you need to.

An N95 won't help as much with any particles smaller than 0.3 microns so it will block most of the smoke which is in the 2.5 micron range but won't protect your eyes and won't stop ozone, which is also high today.

I'm staying indoors when I can.
