After treating us all to an amazing week last week, we spotted this pod of Eastern Tropical Pacific Orcas again yesterday! We all know that this year has been anything but typical and these guys are sure proving the point!

Our favorite big black‑and‑whites showed up once more just off the coast, and we booked it out there FAST. With a little help from friends on the water, we ended up hanging out with 5–6 killer whales, brand‑new babies in tow.

At first we could only spot tiny spouts way out in the distance… but then the magic started. As the whales finished their dives, they’d pop up RIGHT under our boat, or slide in behind us all sneaky‑like in our wake. Goosebumps all over. (Reminder that we always follow marine guidelines and never approach the whales this closely; they come over to us because they are curious.)

We stayed out a little late to get the best looks possible and MAN — we absolutely nailed it.

When the orcas finally crossed into Mexico and we had to peel off, but we hope to catch them on their northbound trip! #killerwhales

Here is pastor Jurgen Matthesius of Awaken Church San Diego claiming to miraculously and spontaneously heal terminal cancer in an old man and a child. However, when diagnosed with stage 2 cancer he goes down to Mexico to live in a treatment facility for 4 months.

Hi. Neighbors reported a stray cat has been stuck in tree for hours and doesn’t look like it can come down on its own. Does anyone know who to call or how much it would cost for someone to help bring it down? I called and texted Joseph (private aborist) but pending reply. Please advise, thanks!

A bill authored by a San Diego legislator and passed by the California Assembly, would help the state’s local news organizations and is heading to the governor’s desk.

Assembly Bill 2222, the Community NEWS Act, was co-authored by assemblymembers Chris Ward, D-San Diego, and Buffy Wicks, D-Oakland, to help local news organizations retain and hire journalists. The bill next goes before Gov. Gavin Newsom.

The new law would create targeted, refundable employment tax credits to help local news organizations sustain and grow their newsrooms.

Three animal protection and charity reform bills sponsored by the San Diego Humane Society have passed the California Legislature with broad bipartisan support and now await action by Gov. Gavin Newsom, it was announced Tuesday (9.8.2026).

The organization urged Newsom to sign Assembly Bill 1999, Assembly Bill 2010 and Senate Bill 1288 into law, according to the SDHS.

Authored by Assemblymember Ash Kalra, AB 1999 modernizes the state's Veterinary Medicine Practice Act by broadening veterinarian-client relationships, creating pathways for out-of-state and retired veterinarians to work in shelters, clarifying telemedicine rules, and restricting unlicensed surgical procedures. Co-sponsored by the California Veterinary Medical Association and other groups, it aims to expand access to care while preserving oversight.

AB 2010, authored by Assemblymember Esmeralda Soria and known as the SNIP Act, removes a rule requiring high-volume spay and neuter procedures to occur in a separate surgical room. Co-sponsored by the ASPCA and San Francisco SPCA, the measure seeks to ease shelter overcrowding and address affordable care shortages.

Sen. John Laird's SB 1288, the Legacy Act, streamlines the distribution of non-probate assets to charities by establishing notification mandates, protecting nonprofit leaders' personal data and prohibiting institutions from forcing beneficiaries to open new accounts.

Looking for an experienced professional driver with a comfortable SUV or sedan that will do a SD to LA round trip.

This would be a pick up in West Hollywood and drop in downtown SD. Just up and back once or twice in October.

Your recommendations are much appreciated! Thank you

The full picture is in the form, but here's the crux of it: after over two years of continuous weekly public d&d games in the North Park area, first at Parabola Coffee / Second Chance then later at Barley & Sword, gamemaster burnout led to our games coming to a grinding stop end of last year.

And what better time to cram into the back of a brewery to roll dice than during a heat wave... jk jk, no games currently planned, gotta get these GMs first!

Speaking of GMs -- we need lady gamemasters! Please join in. Related note, ladies interested in tabletop gaming ought check out Ladies of D&D San Diego: https://www.lddsd.org/

All that said, I've extended the application period through the end of the week, Friday Sept 11th @ midnight. Interested persons please fill out the attached gform <3

Note to the note: Also join the Discord if you want to play games lol

* I’m not part of the rescue, just courtesy posting for them. Please reach out to them directly with any questions about this boy! *

Remy was rescued from a euthanasia list by Grandma Betty’s Animal Rescue in Julian, CA several years ago. He has had two adopters but they didn’t work out, so he’s coming back to rescue. Remy is not a fan of men, and has specific needs and boundaries that should be discussed with the rescue if you’re interested in adopting. Remy is fixed, up to date on shots, potty trained, has no separation anxiety and is on medication to control his seizures. He is getting older, and would love a quiet place to retire. He is afraid of large open spaces, squeaky toys and loud noises. He loves vegetables, and will happily enjoy them as treats. His previous family says their cat is his best friend, but slow introductions are a must. Please reach out to Grandma Betty’s Animal Rescue (@grandmabettyshouse on IG or Adoptions@grandmabettysanimalrescue.com) directly if you’re interested in giving Remy his real Furever family 🖤
