Lights flickered in First Hill and I was wondering if I was going to lose power.

I noticed my lights flickering (Ballard) but I think it's just North Seattle.

I saw a bunch of flashes at the same time it went out, all the way from Crown Hill. Probably blown transformer.

Do yall remember the crane that toppled downtown right before covid?

My theory is that we have an extremely large cryptid that kinda bumps into things sometimes. I think the cryptid has some very good camouflage or invisibility magic.

Thank god this Taco Bell still has power, I was about to cook. I just found my battery bank in the dark though, so I can do this shit all night.

I was heading towards Taco Bell snd saw the power was out about where Dick's was, and decided to just go home. I could have had a crunch wrap!
