Yikes, sorry to hear about the crash, Laura. Thank goodness Brendon is okay.
Yeah, joyriding unlicensed teen is going to have some fun times at home.

Our wings are not tired.
The original accident was ahead of both of them. Brendon was able to slow down and keep from hitting the person in front of him, but wasn't able to move over enough to keep her from not hitting him. He got over a bit because he saw her coming, but she still got the corner. He feels bad that he couldn't get out of her way. Inexperienced driver so she couldn't stop in time.
While waiting for the police two more vehicles joined the smoosh.

Well, this seems promising. Pretty sure I didn't expect that to happen in my lifetime.

Oy, what a hassle, Laura.
One of my Kenyon friends got in an accident and he's had such a hard time replacing his car. He's got the means but they don't have the stock.
Matilda's Physics final is a group project (with her beau) that involves creating a new Muni bus line in San Francisco and relating all the energy/acceleration issues with economic and city planning issues. (It's a very practical Physics class, usually relating to environmental science.)
She spent 2.5 hours last night stuck on one question and couldn't make the numbers work until she realized she had mis-read that question. Which made her very grumpy rather than relieved. ("Two and a half hours of my life wasted!")
Ple will be happy to know that she made me stop on the way to school this morning to pick up two Red Bulls to power through her finals today. Less fun was seeing an EMT team doing CPR on a guy outside on the ground.
Too much excitement this morning.

That is exciting, JenP! And because I read a lot of a particular kind of SF now I am looking forward to helium filled dirigibles!

Shocking and sad. So young! I really only know him from SYTYCD and occasionally stories/clips since but he always delighted

Ugh, that's been such a problem for a couple of years now.

So sad about Twitch. He was such a light, including with his family on tiktok. He had small kids. What a loss for them, suicide is so hard

That is sad news about Twitch.
Fusion news is very good stuff. Go science!

Yes, a big concern. I think even though the damage is expensive they probably won't total it because the car really holds its value and is still worth a bunch. He'll go to the collision place Tesla recommended later today. He did stop at Tesla and they said he could charge so he did. That is a big help at least in case we have to wait for parts.
