HELLS BELLS TRUDY

Does Dark Sky have the numbers for air quality? It’s still not free on iOS, but I’d get it if it did.

It does not appear to. I didn’t look, because for me it’s not a huge concern, but I just went back in and it’s not a visible feature, nor is it listed as one in the Paid App Perks section. Sorry! Weatherbug does, and you can even move it up to be one of the first things you see.

They look like an electronic music duo getting ready for their next album to drop.

Their first single is just one long sustained meow with a drumbeat.

The Cryptid Overlords Demand Offerings of Pettings and Treats

Boy do they ever. Even Dearborn came begging this morning and she never begs for pettings in the bed.

Polk looks like she belongs in the Overlook Hotel.

HEEEEEERE’S POLKADOT!

I love that he says they "will" not talk to us, as opposed to cannot talk to us.

Ruuuuuuude

I THOUGHT THE SAME THING. The uncontrollably rude behavior was reminiscent of Paul’s!

I felt sorry for him when he began deteriorating, and Hannibal continued eating. The situation was a bit like Paul’s.

I think Hannibal is in the business of Fucking Shit Up and he’s working for a promotion

At least he doesn't forget to eat.

With that kind of precision aim, Hannibal’s had plenty of practice already imo.

Ah, he probably thought it was poetic justice, ruining the brain of an esteemed member of the local intelligentsia. I’m now thinking that the two events have nothing to do with each other, except with the aspect of the mind being important.

He would never take Will out that fast.

Redo för regn och rusk?

När det regnar som värst i Sydkorea passar många på att pigga upp sig med färgglada och praktiska regnkläder. Det är något vi i Sverige gott kan ta efter, speciellt när hösten börjar krypa närmare.

Korea har en lång regnperiod i början av sommaren, oftast från mitten av juni till slutet av juli. Dessa skyfall kallas jangma (장마), och bidrar med den största delen av hela årets regn. Det råder ingen…

So I see they bought the new Beyoncé album too.

Thor thinks her beats are phat and Luke appreciates her positive-body-image lyrics!

장마 (JANGMA) - 정인 (JUNGIN)

So, this is what the last week of the rainy season looks like this year. Crazy storm hit yesterday and is still raging.

It reportedly rained over 70mm, around 3 inches, during a two-hour storm late yesterday afternoon. We were stuck in Hyehwa waiting for the rain to stop enough for us to ride the scooter home. But yesterday's sudden downpour is nothing compared to the early morning storm.

The storm that began in the earliest hours today and thrashed us with early morning lightning and thunder for 90 minutes has almost certainly dumped yesterday's rain two times over.

I put on my swimming trunks and cleaned the walls and windows outside the apartment that were filthy from Seoul's daily dirt, and beginning to mold and mildew from the two months of rainy season weather. That kind of green is not welcome.

According to estimates, it'll have rained somewhere around 600-700mm by Thursday when the storm is supposed to begin to clear out. That's around a foot of rain in 48 hours. I think those estimates were made at the beginning of the storm and may increase.

Three o'clock yesterday afternoon, the humidity was intense and as the sun set it cooled off quick producing intense storms. The picture above is typical of what happened around the city. It's the heaviest rainstorm in Seoul since I moved here in 2008.

We live on a hill, so no flooding here. I'm sure Dorimcheon--the river down the street--is swollen, if not dumping its excess into the lowest streets

It's a fitting storm for my birthday, I think. It's like a long-waning wail against the oppressive summer heat.
