I’ve spent much of this year learning about car bloat, the process through which smaller vehicles are being replaced by increasingly massive SUVs and trucks.

What I’ve learned: Huge cars are terrible for society, often in ways that are hidden.

Hatch chile shortage announced. The drought and heat have halted growth, and there's gonna be a BIG gap between hat was harvested early (last week) and what becomes available down the road.

Coffee, chocolate, maple syrup, chile, all being made scarce by climate collapse.

In 2001, artist Richard Ankrom posted a "5 North" sign on the 110 N. in DTLA to alert drivers to get in the left lane for the 5 turnoff. His work was so impeccable (and helpful), Caltrans at first didn't notice, then allowed it to stay. "5 North" is now part of permanent signage.
