People messaging me saying “it might not be big” and you know what, that’s exactly how emergency preparedness works… if it’s a squib you can have the big light on and then eat all your emergency snacks. If it is - well then you are a bit more ready. Win Win 💨

Corporate Parents everywhere, you were warned 2,400 years ago!
"If once he has grown up an orphan concludes that he was badly treated by his guardian, he may bring a lawsuit for incompetent guardianship, provided he does so within five years of its expiry" (Plato, The Laws, Ch.11).
