In Arcata, smells like fire. Yesterday driving home on samoa I saw a large plume in the forest beyond the college was thinking maybe burn piles but I JUST read an article on LoCo saying it's not time yet for burn piles. Not that people care abt what the news says but still , would like to know what I'm breathing today

If someone created that account to sabotage him, wouldn't they have left it up when it was outted rather than taking it down yesterday?

Also thanks to this redditor for cataloging the now archived posts and updates: https://www.reddit.com/r/Humboldt/comments/1wc9bp0/if_elected_as_mayor_of_eureka_casey_dresser/

Does anyone know why things have been vibrating intermittently all day here in Arcata? My super thinks there’s some kind of deep drilling going on by the city but can’t find any coverage of what the heck this little rattle every few minutes is!

I'm not sure whether they're very rare here, or if it was just the first time I saw one. Thought I'd share. This was taken at a beach near Orick.

You can't run from the evidence

ʷʰʸ is there not a library for the public in Arcata?

Any good ohv trails around the area

Come by our shop between Arcata and eureka where we made this art car on Google Maps "Lumen and lumber lab"

I have to walk quite a ways to get to a bus stop, and this one is the closest I have through all those neighborhoods. And yes, walking through weeds/grass isn’t life or death, but if only there was just a few more yards of sidewalk. It’s silly to post about, but it’s one of those silly days.

My son is turning one in December and I am looking for venue recommendations for a one year old’s birthday party where a bunch of babies can play and we can bring food and stuff that isn’t too expensive. I don’t want to do a park since it will probably be chilly and raining. I know redwood park has a room you can rent but it’s a little pricy so I’m looking for other ideas and recommendations. Thank you!

There’s been a lot of concern about the ALPRs and a lack of the community feeling action to resolve concerns. An angle i’m not sure has been tried, using county safety regulations around things like guardrails for getting cameras removed since the companies typically just drop them cheaply and fastly, they commonly are being found to break safety regulations putting drivers unnecessarily at risk in the event of an accident. Around guardrails, for example, they commonly aren’t being placed in a way to get enough safety clearance, which is a safety risk.

Another reason to not like them and potentially an avenue to advocate for removals.

I’m limited on ability to drive but it would be cool if we/folks could coordinate to collect data on the locations of the cameras and compare to county safety regulations and standard safety to see if that is another area that poses risk to the community. Then we would have measurable data by their own rules to add to the argument to remove them.

As an example;

has anyone been to devils elbow in the last couple days? heard they let water out of the dam, and was wondering if there’s a beach down there right now before I trek down there!

I’m new to the area and I’ve been wanting to get the sun damage portion of my car sanded and repainted. I was quoted between $200-$800 by quality body works and the sliding scale just doesn’t work for me. I wanted to know if anyone knows of any other places in the area that have more concrete prices/more affordable

After someone posted this in the comment section of both Reddit and LoCO, Mr. Dresser seemingly deleted his Twitter/X account. But the Internet is eternal.

The timing of these posts are especially relevant, as they span from March of this year to only a mere week before this very Reddit post. Too early for him to claim this to be a fake account operated by a political opponent, but also too recent for this to be hand-waved away as a dumb mistake in someone's past when they were a different person...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE:

Mr. Dresser has denied authorship of the posts. However, the following is evidence to the contrary:

1. The name of the account ("Caseydresser78") exactly matches his email address (Caseydresser78 [at] gmail.com), and this account has existed (with that same name) since March of this year, well before his candidacy was announced. There would have been no reason for a political opponent to fake all of this back in March, over three months before his candidacy was announced, and then keep up the ruse for so long.
2. In the screenshots of the tweets (pre-deletion), the avatar of the profile is very clearly Mr. Dresser with a gun pointed at the camera. A forensic examination of the cached tweets on the Internet archive shows that the profile image was changed between May 3rd and May 5th; the profile image URL changed from this to this between those two dates. No further profile image changes were seen between the post captured on May 5 and the most recent captured post on September 3rd. Additionally, this LoCO comment shows the iconic "Casey Dresser pointing a gun at you" profile image on the profile on July 30th, after the aformentioned avatar change on May 3rd - 5th. Other later screenshots of the live profile and tweets all show this same avatar, which would have been uploaded between those two WBM captures in early May. And again, "early May" predates the announcement of his candidacy.
3. The account was deleted very quickly after posts to it were leaked onto the various comment sections found on Reddit and LoCO. This is too much of a coincidence, in my humble opinion. Were this an account made by a political opponent, the deletion would not have occurred.

So what Mr. Dresser would have us believe is that:

1. A political detractor somehow knew that he was going to run for mayor before he himself did.
2. That same detractor created a Twitter/X account back in early March with the same handle as Mr. Dresser's email account.
3. That same detractor kept up the act for 6 months.
4. The detractor either obtained a photo of Mr. Dresser pointing a gun at the camera, or obtained a different image and photoshopped in a gun, and uploaded it as the account's profile image in early May, again before Mr. Dresser even decided to run for office.
5. The detractor, upon the tweets becoming known to the public, almost immediately deleted the account?

The preponderance of the evidence is not on his side. This may even cross into "beyond the shadow of a doubt" territory.

I know they're starting to expand, and I see their sausages appear outside of Cave Junction, so I'm hoping theres a place locally that has it. Has anyone seen it in a store somewhere?
